==Description==
''A storage bin made from planks and strengthened with iron ribbons.''
== Notes ==
*Bulk storage bins are useful for many reasons.:*You can store more than 100 objects in them. :*They stop all decay of objects put into them. :*They will average the quality of similar items.:*They allow players to combine items it is not normally possible to combine, such as logs, and split up large combined items into smaller ones, such as lumps, cotton and woodscraps.:*It allows players to remove damage from unrepairable items without the [[mend]] spell at the cost of having their quality reduced by a percent equal to the damage.:*If emptyand not planted, they it can be picked up.*There are some downsides to using BSBs. :*Averaging the quality of the items put in is not always a good thing, such as when high quality materials are required for improving. :*5% of each of the stored items are lost every 30 days, if not kept on a deed with more than 30 days upkeep. :*Any [[enchant]]s, renames, and other "special" characteristics on items put in are lost. Items with enchants can generally not be placed into a BSB. Rare items cannot be put into a BSB.* Partial items that cannot be combined are kept in the bin when you use "As many as I can carry."
* The last plank added to the bin determines the type (cedar, pinewood, etc.).
* Finished bulk storage bins can be picked up if they are empty and can be moved (pushed, pulled, and turned) whether empty or not.
:* Can be locked with a [[large padlock]] or [[small padlock]], which prevents use until unlocked unless [[permissions]] are set.
:* Destruction is possible for the BSB's creator or the holder of the key locking it, absent of deed restrictions.
:* When a BSB is destroyed, all of the items inside of it are destroyed as well.
:* Bulk storage bins can be bashed off-deed and picked up if they are 70+ damage and or 10 quality and below.
* A BSB can hold 16000 units of volume.
:* The bulk storage bin will visually change when more than half full to reflect its contents exceeding 8000 in volume.
:* Volume and weight are not in the same proportion for different items, so some items store more efficiently in bulk storage bins than others.
* Items can be dragged directly from any container to the storage bin. They do not need to be moved into your inventory first.
:* When taking items out, they must be moved into your inventory.
* The minimum allowed quality of items put into the bin can be dictated by the [[quality lock]] feature.
* {{haul}}
* The minimum allowed quality of items put into the bin can be dictated by the [[Quality lock]] feature.
*Quality Averaging:
** Any item placed in a BSB will alter the quality as follows:
***If item added would lower BSB average, then a 10% quality boost is given to the amount of change.
***If item added would raise BSB average, then a 10% quality penalty is given to the amount of change.
==Ownership==
BSBs generally work very much like any other container, such as a large chest, with some differences.
==Bonuses of BSBs==:* You can store more than 100 objects in them, depending on volume. :*If They stop all decay of objects put into them, if kept on a BSB is simply dropped it is "proximity" owneddeed with more than 30 days upkeep. Anyone can pick it up if :* They will average the person who dropped quality of similar items.:* They allow players to combine items it is not close bynormally possible to combine, such as logs, and they have pickup rights in it's location (Deedsplit up large combined items into smaller ones, Housesuch as lumps, Wilderness)cotton and woodscraps. :*If It allows players to remove damage from unrepairable items without the [[mend]] spell at the cost of having their quality reduced by a BSB is planted it is "fully" owned. Only percent equal to the player who planted it can move or pick it updamage. ===Quality Averaging===*When someone puts an Any item into placed in a BSB that it does not already store, they are will alter the "proximity" owner of that consolidated item.quality as follows:*Others may add additional items to that consolidated * If itemadded would lower BSB average, but then a 10% quality boost is given to the ownership remains with the initial playeramount of change.*A locked * If item added would raise BSB prevents anyone from using the BSB unless they unlock it first or if average, then a player 10% quality penalty is listed on its [[permissions]].*Note that on PVP servers, items that have proximity ownership can be stolengiven to the amount of change.
==Downsides of Using BSBs==
:* Averaging the quality of the items put in is not always a good thing, such as when high quality materials are required for improving.
:* 5% of each of the stored items are lost every 30 days, if not kept on a deed with more than 30 days upkeep.
:* Any [[enchant]]s, renames, and other "special" characteristics on items put in are lost. Items with enchants can generally not be placed into a BSB. Rare items cannot be put into a BSB.
* Partial items that cannot be combined are kept in the bin when you use "As many as I can carry."
* When a BSB is destroyed, all of the items inside of it are destroyed as well.
==Ownership==
BSBs generally work very much like any other container, such as a large chest, with some differences.
* If a BSB is simply dropped it is "proximity" owned. Anyone can pick it up if the person who dropped it is not close by, and they have pickup rights in its location (deed, house, wilderness).
* If a BSB is planted it is "fully" owned. Only the player who planted it can move or pick it up.
* When someone puts an item into a BSB that it does not already store, they are the "proximity" owner of that consolidated item.
* Others may add additional items to that consolidated item, but the ownership remains with the initial player.
* A locked BSB prevents anyone from using the BSB unless they unlock it first or if a player is listed on its [[permissions]].
* '''Note that on PVP servers, items that have proximity ownership can be stolen.'''
