Any ideas what happened to the BRD and gold in corpse? If somebody else looted, is there a reason I would not see loot being removed from the corpse on the log? The best thing I can come with as an explanation is that an Ainu purged the corpse of contents. I game-mailed Staer, but he's remove the mail without a reply. I wanted to send him the log, but I think he is not interested.

Sneaker orc looted it...

I have seen same thing many times. Nod sneaker looted but none has fixed that bug yet.. evend did once corpse shadow and during it sneaker looted self but i saw nothing, just shadow dissapeared

Damn Unknown and Faine beat me to it. :P

Anyway, seems its so indeed. It doesn't show when the sneaker loots.

I love the way that you instantly think of the most implausible outcome, that some Ainur was watching and purged the corpse!

Mazza: No, I did not "instantly" think of the "most implausible outcome."

First, I looked over this log many, many times trying to make some sense of it.

Second, Ainur cheating is far from implausible--you are very naive to think otherwise.

Others: Thanks for your explanation. The bug should be fixed. It's kinda stupid.

If you don't know the sneaker is in the room, why should you know when he loots an item? I know it's a bug, but high sneak/hide/steal should make it possible to loot and not be noticed. It's that way in a few other MUDs.

Well Sogard, imagine you standing at the corpse of a killed enemy, and suddenly he is naked :P MUST HAVE BEEN AINURS !
