Gang, at this moment, the dirge thugs will no longer take any container on your person.... ever. (Or shouldn't) This wasn't a bug though. Losing backpacks that contain a hundred items is a tad rough though for any form of stealing.

Here's the part that was a bug though. Sometimes they seem to be deploying where they shouldn't. If it happen after you stole from any location other than Undershard or Dirge. Toss me a note here in Bugs and also put one in game using the BUG verb. Something like this

Bug Attention Royce: I was caught stealing (location/Province/City) and the dirge thugs were sent. I was in (location/province/city) when they hit.

Anything else you feel you need to add... feel free to.
