i submitted a modreq or two about this, but i figure i'd make a thread to make getting consecutive responses easier.
so anyway, i built a little "slot machine" thing that dispenses random items when you put 1 gold bar in a hopper (or whatever cost i feel like putting at the moment). this thing got looted once, so i checked to make sure everything was locked - found a hopper that wasn't locked, called myself an idiot, fixed that, then surrounded the thing with obsidian. then it got looted again and now i'm starting to think someone's getting in and messing with the redstone inside.
is something like this allowed? the first modreq i made about this, TornadoHorse got back to me and called it "a dick move".
