Bugzilla – Bug 204
Canoe removed while in use

I was on the Providence claim in my canoe. A naked guy starts following me, trying to get me to boat race him around the harbor. I'm not interested so he continues to follow me. He says he knows a secret camera exploit to see Medusa Head Jellyfish. I follow him off the shore to watch what he was doing. Suddenly my canoe disappears out from under me and he blocks me with his canoe until I drown then robs me of my clothes, purse, keys, etc. On Providence claim mind you. He claimed to be Darwoth. Playing under the character: Magnu. He said this bug was in game for two years. Yet I see no mention of this on the forums. Perhaps a tooltip needs to be added to the canoe saying that it shouldn't be used near others?
Are you sure he didn't simply destroy your canoe with the usual Destroy action?
I have no idea. I saw nothing to indicate he was destroying my canoe. Nor would I expect destroying a canoe from another canoe in the water to be something doable. I'm blown away that a canoe can be destroyed while in use. That needs to be in the tooltip if that is the case.

That is to say, please verify whether that may have been the case. I cannot think of any other mechanism by which a canoe might just "disappear".
