AUTO~RETURN = "MISSING" Inventory due to mysterious LINK

If you have been frustrated with MISSING OBJECTS particularly following an AUTO~RETURN, all hope mayhaps not be lost. Apparently for reasons known solely to Houdini Linden himself {lawd help meh if there is actually a "Houdini Linden" rotfl}, items returned automatically from a parcel somehow LINK THEMSELVES to a SINGLE "object." I have found this to be true not only for myself; I thereafter notified two friends who were able to "recover" their formerly lost objects via this route as well. When I had performed an auto~return in Sponsa of my own items, I noticed they weren't all surfacing in my inventory.. Let's face it, I have a lotta junk & knew betta than to have only received ONE unidentified "Object." ~.^ Nonetheless, I dragged it to the ground. EVERY item that had previously been placed, UNlinked, on my land was then LINKED. My friends had the same encounter when moving from rented land; the landlord had performed an auto~return then. Please weed through your unknown "Object"s if this mysterious disappearance has confuzzled you, t.
