I agree with Borka above. You say you have discovered the items above. Did you discover by making or discover finished product? If you have only discovered the finished bars try making bloom in the finery forge. SOmetime the item missing is a simple step. Hopefully this helps.

So.. server crashed again. This time I did so in a boat on the middle of a lake. So my question is, what happends when I log on again? Will I be inside the boat? And if I dont log in right at server start and someone comes in a boat, can they pick up my boat?

If possible, what happends then? I dont have swimming.

If you were inside your boat when you logged out you will login safely still on your boat as your were before you were logged out.

That is, if you login where you last logged out and not to your hearthfire.

If somebody pick your boat, you log on at log out place and will stay over water. In this case just travel to hearthfire.

Do larger villages useally have a 'slum' for new player that they have to show there worth? and how well does it work? what problems does this create?

Reason I ask is I am helping create a larger village(medium to low level players). I think this would be a good way to see what players are worth keeping. We have already had a few very bad apples. I just want to know if this practice works well.

Rarely. New players usually aren't let into a larger village directly unless they are very trusted. Generally you end up on your own until they deem it that you're not a spy or a thief.
