You can store mass amounts of items in barter stands.

This is particularly useful when farming. Begin by loading the barter stand with an ALT (not your main farmer, I prefer cooking alt, since I don't have to steal the ingredients out later). In the stock slot, insert random shit (like stones) and then select your desired purchase item as the crop you plan on harvesting (i.e. onion), set the quality to 1 and the number to whatever you want (I usually have 30, since I farm with an empty boosted inventory). With each full inventory, purchase the shit on your farmer, and then the 30 crop units will be stored in the stand. You can store an upwards of 8000 items in one HQ stand. (if you set the buying to 56 units and harvest with traveller's sacks).

The only downside to this is: You have to steal the crops out later when you want to cook with them. (oh and beets and pumpkins get annoying).

High-quality chairs are a wonderful addition to your farm. They will regenerate stamina just as quickly or faster than q70+ water at high levels, and they don't use up very many resources.

If where talking farming. Tables(6x6) can also be used as temporary storage (and sorting if needed) units for foods while farming large plots.
- The foods only feature of tables can, with some crops, be of some use here.
- Probably best used in a setup of 5 tables around a single chair. (or 7 tables if you like)

1. You can keep your happiness meter up by collecting frogs and killing them. I don't know if that's a pro-tip, but I'd keep that in mind for when happiness means something :P

2. You can lead rabbits in claimed areas away by leaving distance between them and you, and make sure you are in between them and the center of the claimed land.
Then, use punch and quickly press the icon next to them to get them to stop running. Voila, you have some lunch from their land.

when you need bulk clay (brick wall), you'll get multiple the amount clay from a node if you dig at the edge (where it's q10), and as that particular tile depletes, move a step or 2 closer to the node peak.

Ok looks as if it work on other containers as well.

Do most people do this?
I am wondering how server performance would be affected if your character went afk normally while holding open a container.
