So every time I get arrested and jailed, all my bonded items break and whenever I try to invoke anything every single bonded item breaks. I get a copy of it in my hand that I then can't wear because I'm already wearing it and have to sit around in queue to get it fixed. This has been happening on and off for at least half a year now and always is maddening because I literally can't do anything thanks to being unable to stow anything.

Since we have been talking about how this system also screws with gweth charges even if found innocent, maybe a better system can be created that would solve some of these issues overall? Now that more and more items are being bonded and systems are being created this might help a lot with both items and gweth charges and make stealing not the chore it is.

> Are you saying that by invoking a bond in the jail system you're duplicating items?

It doesn't really actually duplicate the item, at least I don't think so. It just invokes a fake copy into my hands that I then can't do anything with until a GM fixes them. This has happened to me multiple times and with the slightly dwindling staff it takes long and longer to get fixed. I'm kind of surprised I'm the only one having these issues, I'm going to assume that it must have to do with a combination of jail, SRE, and bonding if others aren't running into this.

While this van be a solution, the timer on using it often makes INVFIX an impractical solution many times, unfortunately.

> So... this may be a crazy suggestion, but until a solution can be implemented how about NOT invoking your bonded items until you're out of jail?

Crazy suggestion because that isn't what is happening. I mean this normally is happening hours after I get in jail and cleared and then type invoke to get back a thrown weapon in combat and suddenly have all my items jumping into my hands instead of the weapon.

This same thing has happened to me just now - Got arrested in Shard, was innocent, came out, opened the sack, looked in it, I'm wearing everything, fine. Off I go to hunt, 5 minutes in, I try to invoke my axe, and I get my kanton pouch in my hard, try it again, I get my hollows eve claw gift in my hand.... Now my axe is on the floor, and my hands are full...

Eventually get all my items together, hit assist.... get nothing.... hit report.... get nothing....

Having read this thread, I've semi managed to fix it I think, thanks for that advice on holding things in the left hand, but surely fixing the issue in the system is better?

> Get rid of arrests entirely. Only do fines and don't strip the items.

I agree here, and the two things don't have to be mutually exclusive. Get rid of the manacles. Don't strip the items.

Make the manacles a general-worn item that also force-hides everything else, and keep the person perma-"immobilized" while jailed.

Uzmam! The Chairman will NOT be pleased to know you're trying to build outside of approved zones. I'd hate for you to be charged the taxes needed to have this place re-zoned. Head for the manor if you're feeling creative.
