Because hes an assholemean. People who do this annoy me to no end. You asked a question that anyone can easily answer if they had been previously following the logs and status reports.

So.. there's this thing called punctuation.. fyi..

This was great!

Not to hard to guess ;) No beach in sight. So not East and no rocky/hills. So not in the North.

Good thing I picked up my AKM before logging. I came back and found my axe I had left out and the fireplace kit to be gone. Everything inside the bag was still ok though. So the life time I would say AT MOST is 2 hours maybe? Seems pretty short..

So I finally settled down in a cozy little spot where no one would think to look (so says everyone). My fireplace and gear all safe and sound through the resets, just need to find myself a tent to replace having backpacks as storage. So where have you guys setup at? (Non descriptively obviously. Rural, Elektro apt building number 203, bum-f%&* nowhere). Show some pictures, tell your story! Here's mine at the moment! - NOTE: Notice in two of the shots I found a nice little bug. The light from my fireplace doesn't appear after being a certain distance away. Two pictures taken, one being two steps further back. AHHH THE LIGHT! COME FIND ME! :D

No sir, it was on the ground, along with my fireplace kit. Let me remind you though, mine was alone there for 20 minutes.. Your tests were spanning hours at a time. I think im wrapping it up for a while. I will check later tonight and see what the results are and let you know. Btw I can confirm your backpack bug, whole thing was empty. And the AKM had no attachments, the model on the ground even showed nothing on it! I just cycled mine (put it on, took it off) and everything returned to how its suppose to be.

Good to hear, I was able to confirm this for myself as well. I found a cozy spot I was wanting to setup at and placed a fire down. Set a leather bag and my AKM under a tree and headed out for looting. I was hoping to return and get some things situated but a server reset came. It took the server FOREVER to finally reset and let me back in. But to my delight, when I returned, my gear was all there! WHOOOOOOO!!

Yes, please let me know! I think I just found a server Im going to setup in

I'm sure he realizes this..... I would honestly pick the corner of "an open field" like that versus a most other places.. I would lay money that MOST people stick to towns/roads connecting towns..

Your signature/banner thingy makes me think otherwise about trying to find you.. YOU may be the one doing the KOS :P

Unfortunately my guy I have been playing so much on lately and is pretty well geared to how I want him is on a privately hosted server.. whatever they call those? So when it comes time for that server to enable persistence and I can finally settle down, hopefully there is no char reset that ensues.

Gotcha, well I hopped on a persistant server.. Somethings off? The loot respawns/tables seem to be broken. Literally nothing. anywhere. At first I dismissed it as someone already came through.. I moved on and got to another town, literally nothing. In any of the houses.. even the closed ones.. No trash that people usually ignore.. nothing :/ So I guess ill head back to some other servers I play and just horde my loot on my person for the time being xD

Good question. Didn't realize this was an option. So I'm assuming no and that was my issue?

Soooo I guess I don't understand the meaning of persistent loot/containers? My understanding was that any loot could be placed on the ground and would remain there for a certain "lifetime", this varying on what the item is. This includes staying "persistent" through server restarts. - To test this I decided to find a good area I was going to try and start setting up camp. I placed a camp fire down and a random pistol I had been carrying. I then ran off to continue my looting and find some of the new survival items they added (I cant find a blade for the life of me to cut up my burlap sack >:l). I returned about 45 minutes later. The fire was still there. I then signed out here and was gone for about an hour. I returned to see the server was empty and was in the middle of resetting. It took a LONG time for the thing to reset to let me in, which I thought maybe was due to it having to populate the map with persistent items.. Well.. no.. I finally got back in to see my campfire gone and the pistol I placed gone. Do I have the correct understanding of how its suppose to work or is there a bug they announced that I am missing?
