I noticed recently that I can basically take anything I want from people's containers(cupboards, barrels, chests, bookshelfs, etc.) and never have them accuse me of stealing.
The way that I can do this is to carry a barrel(I am sure that a chest would work as well, but I have not tried that) in your inventory and drop it right beside the container you would like to get goodies from. Open the barrel and then open up the person's container. After that, drag the item from their container to your barrel and continue to do so until you have all of their items.
Pick up the barrel and drop it a little distance(as far as it will go before the X comes up), and continue to pick it up and drop it until there is a little bit of distance between your barrel and any people. If you try to take anything from the barrel near people, they will accuse you of theft and try to arrest you.
It is a nice way to get some ill-gotten gains without any reputation hits, but I am curious whether this is a bug or just an exploit on my part.
Thank you. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />
