Weird clan box

[steward]

Ok, I'd heard about this just hadn't seen it before.

Battles asked me to get a pistol out of the clan box for him. I go get the pistol, pop over to the zone he's in and... that's strange i thought I took it out it's not in my backpack. I get to where he is and take it out and give to him. I look later at the log it shows me taking it out twice and stranger still is the pistol is back in the clan box.

So, maybe he'll be asking about it later today/tomorow, it's in the top left of the box level 2 teleract sonic pistol with steal armor [4].

This is also a problem with other clans. I believe Harston and at least one other clannie has petitioned about this problem. I will get on tonight and see if i can take anything out...and keep it.

I remember seeing something in the planettr forum about this. I just wasn't thinking about it, I hadn't tried taking anything out of the clan locker before. Anyway here's what I found in the tech support/bugs forum.

Before I logged out of the game for the night I went to check on my experiment with the clan box. While still on my grenadier I checked the clan box for stuff my ranger took out, and it looked like it was still in the clan box. When I switched to my ranger still in wilderness the stuff wasn't in the clan box. Not sure what to make of it, but there it is.

Sounds like the same problem we had before it seems like the locker on the different maps lose sync with each other. There was a post that I remember seeing in ptr about something that sounded very similar. Might not be a bad idea to just create a new thread on ptr or pm kagasumi to see if he could expedite matters. I know I had petition on it back when we first start to have a problem and so did harston. The last word I remember getting back from them had been that it had been past to some qa guys. Then the clan went screwy.

Lets pray the clan doesnt go screwy again.

The second post down in that topic I linked earlier says in their clan they have a rule about the clan box which seems to have kept the bug rom popping up again.

It's more or less obvious that synchronization of storage (both clan and personal) between server instances is either bugged or, more likely, just lags behind, leading to all sorts of weird artifacts. I made it a rule to either wait at least 10 minutes before opening the lockbox from a different zone, or just bring all my chars to Wilderness 1 to do lockbox operations. Hadn't had a single problem in ~1.5 months since following this rule.

You can impose something similar for your clan while waiting for a proper solution by the dev team.

That does seem to work. I had an opportunity to test this the other day I stomped around wilderness capped the LZ and generally farted around for 10 minutes or so before going to the box to get the requested gear and didn't see the problem.

Edit: I think this was what reminded me of the quote i have as my sig.
