Hi all, recently I have been see'ing chests and containers which do not have a weight limit. Some crafted ones too. I have seen one with near 400,000 stones in another with 80,000. How is this possible? The ones I create have a limit of 400. The chests I saw, one wooden chest. and one rarewood chest both created by a carpenter. two different people. Any ideas?

If a container is secured in a property, it can hold unlimited weight
It's only when it's not secured, does it have a max of 400 stones.

So whats the difference between locked down, and secured? there the same thing right?

Sorta but No.

When a chest (or container) is "locked down" you either have to release the whole chest or each item. It also has a weight limit of the container. When a chest (or container) is "secured" the items can be removed without doing anything. Also has the unlimited weight feature.

Vepl

so when it says locked down and secured, it just means its secured? I didnt know about this securing feature!

There's Locked Down and Locked Down and Secured

Good explanation can also be found here - http://guide.uo.com/house_5.html

saying "i wish to lock this down" locks down a chest or bag or whatever so the items inside the chest are locked down too, so u could let the public look in but not be able to take the items. When you say " i wish to secure this" it lets the box be locked down and only you or who ever you set the securty to (EX. co owner, guild members, anyone) open the box and take the items inside or put items inside. Hope i explaned it well

if you say "I wish to secur this" and click on a trash barrel, it will never go over item or weight limit. Instead, all the old stuff is auto-flushed when you put in the 126th item.

thats handy to know!
