House Loot: How to Prevent

world?
And you can't build houses in the 2nd-age world?
If so, there cant be a breakin problem with Nightmares. Because they don't
exist in the same world.
I have read somewhere that there are a bug that makes it possilbe to climb
over the lockdowned tables that people use to secure the inner parts of
their houses. And somewhone suggested the use of lockdowned armoirs or
bookshelfs to secure instead.

The only tamable creature that I know cannot come into the old lands
is the Ostard. Nightmares use the same art as the horse so they can
be taken to the old lands without any problems. I'd assume that it's
against the rules and they'd be deleted by GMs but then, anyone using
them to house break will be doing it after GM hours anyhow.

i am riding around Britain Bank on a Nightmare, so from that you can be
assured they can be taken into the old lands, and even people without t2a
can see him. and the house loot bug involving Nightmares IS A REALITY, so
protect yourself
