I bought a plot of land in the town of Nottingham, Mayor is scottmichaelj. On my first day as I was moving things into my new house the mayor himself took Diamonds, Ore and other precious metals out of one my chests. I know, I know, my fault for not locking it, but really? The Mayor of a town stealing from his residents? I mean I had just set the chest down and had just started moving in and hes already stealing from me! The icing on this cake? I wasn't happy with my first house design so I tore it down to make a new one. I logged on yesterday to begin construction and my 10x10 plot that I purchased has now been reduced to 10x8 apparently to make room for the new guy next door! I don't think I actually have any recourse here except to make others aware of his despicable actions. Avoid this town and its mayor like the Plague!
Yes, unlocked chests are fair game. Please speak with the mayor in question regarding the change in plot size to resolve the situation, rather than creating threads like these. If you feel your complain has merit, then file a proper complaint, in the right format, in the complaints section of the forum. Locked.
