Regardless slomoshun I had no idea, i was ignorant of the storage rule. Aswell I am not the only one ignorant to this rule. I am positive that there are thousands out there that do not know of this rule, and will have to find out the hard way.

Do you not think when they implimented the 7 day rule they would have thought to add a line of text to the auction failed message just to make sure everyone does know this. Its a pretty big change.

"Your auction of*Insert item here*has been completed and has not been purchased. You have 7 days to retrieve the item from the stock room at which time it will be deleted"

I agree with botched this whole thing sucks. I actually lost all my factories when i moved and wasnt able to get online for 2 weeks straight they collapsed and i lost nearly everything 6 months of stockpiles in fact. I didnt write a csr to complain tho because it was my own fault. I should have made arrangements with friends in game to monitor my stuff durring my move. But this vendor storeroom not being a storeroom thing is just plain silly.

I've been playing since the first month the game was released and i didn't know about this till just now. I'd be hopping mad at soe if this was how i lost my stuff.

I feel your pain, but yes, a vendor should not be used to store items .

Vendors are there to sell.

Not a way toget aroundthe limit on how many objects you can store in a house....

Or the house item limit wouldn't be there to start....

Then there shouldnt be a tab called "stockroom"

I feel for your loss. If it happened to me, I would definitely quit the game, whether it was my ownfault or not. However, the vendor storage thing has been a known issue for months now. This isn't anything new. And it's called 'Stockroom', not 'Storeroom'. There's a difference, albeit a subtle one. Basically, when a sale expires, it has to go somewhere, and the game is set up so it automatically goes to the stockroom. It was never intended to be a long term storage area for your resources.

It would be nice if there was a system message when you put stuff in thevendor stockroomthat said 'your items will disappear in 7 days', or something like that, but I really don't think SOE is obligated to do that. SOE has documented the stockroom storageissue, and it's been mentioned many times in the forums,they can't be responsible for making sure everyone is 100% aware of every rule.

Your loss sucks big time, but in this case I don't think it's SOE's fault. You can either quit and start a different game (which is probably what I would do in your case), or start over. Yeah, sometimes life sucks.

I cant take it anymore, im tired of this game. Its all about money and playing a class that you dont want because its the only one that can do uber damage. I am tired of hunting a jedi who is in a group of 10 people protecting him, while he is buffed, has a shield and is in full composite armor. I will play again if the combat revamp makes it so the player who practices pvp is good not the person who picks a FOTM and can afford the best gear.
