== Usage ==
A house preserves your possessions by reducing [[decay]], and to a degree, protects them from [[Stealing|theft]]on PVE servers. If the doors are equipped with a [[door lock]], no one may enter your house except the [[friend]]s you give [[permissions]] to, unless the door is [[lockpicking|lockpick]]ed. [[Lockpicking]] only applies to PvP servers. Freedom servers do not allow [[lockpicking]] of houses.
:On the Freedom server, a locked house is the single best protection against theft. Whether on deed or off, houses there '''cannot''' be bashed down or lockpicked, though anyone can enter if you do not put [[door lock]]s on all doors. ''Since a house's locks cannot be picked on Freedom, the door lock's quality isn't really very important there.''
