Ahh...not a good start to owning a house
YoBo
bought has been broken into twice in its 2 days of existance. We never lost
a key, never left the door unlocked, but we still had everything stolen from
it after the first day. We lost about 3k from that. Then, the day after, i
placed a locked box in the house, put some of my stuff in it, and locked it
and
left. Next time i came back to open it, it blows up and kills me. After i
got ressed, i found out that i had lost some scrolls, 50 arrows, my new
magic kite shield, and 500gp worth of other stuff from my chest. The trapper
was called 'Lager Ho'.
How do people do this? Some evil exploit still out there that lets you break
into houses?
Well i'm not keeping any stuff in there until the housing patch comes out.

boxes next to the walls that weren't lockable. Supposedly some boxes can be
messed with from outside. I keep mine in the middle of the floor when I'm
not in the house and just rearrange if I'm going to be there for awhile.
Since your house is obviously on someones hit list, try experiementing. Put
box next to a wall with something you wouldn;t mind losing but would be hard
for a thief to pass up, then do the same with a box placed in the interior.
See if both get hit or only the one next to the wall. I would be very
interested to hear the results if you didn't mind.

a character. They use a mule character. Log him out in a great area
for a house. You place the house. they login and are inside your
house. they steal and stuff. One way to hamper this si to get a
bunch of big chests, cover every spot onthe floor.
Also check to insure the door is locked. I bought a house and had the
same thing happen only to discover that the door was unloceked.

you have in your house except one. I bought an unsecure house about
a month ago. It was great to log on one night and find someones decayed
corpse of items right by the trapped chest he tried to open. He had a
copy of a key on him also ;=)

If it's a big house with a double door, make sure BOTH doors are locked as
well.

place a house. They logged out a mule character on top of the spot they thought
the house might go. You placed your house. The person logged his mule back on,
and boom, he was inside your house. This goes for anyone who buys a house. for
the first two weeks put empty chests or flour bags on the floor. This should
prevent the problem, as anyone who tries to log in while the items are there
will log out outside your house.

for your real stuff. Then it is great to go into your house one day to
find
items from a decomposed body next to one of your trapped chests.

Did you remember to manually lock the door once you placed the house?
The house is unlocked once you place it.
