Your Target Has Already Had Its Pockets PickedFollow

Sorry if there's already a thread on this, looked down a bit and didn't see one.

Anyone else get this message? Maybe it just happens in Outland sometimes (though I never had it in HFP), but I'm starting to think it's a 2.4 thing. Ordinarily I can pickpocket an enemy, and if it somehow gets out of range before I finish looting (I prefer to choose what I get rather than auto loot) I can repeat the pickpocket in order to get whatever was left. Now, though, if I'm out of room or it moves too far away - oh well. Whatever it held was lost to me.

Just wondering if this is new, or just oddly isolated to Terrokar.

I've been getting that message too.

Think they added it in 2.4, never happened to me before the patch.

Yes, and I have notified the GMs about the bug. They said they would look into it.

Been getting the message but usually if my opener doesn't go off. I just use pickpocket macros with auto loot.

It was added in 2.4 i cant remember if it was in official patch notes, or in undocumented patch changes, but i read it at worldofraids.com

I just love the thought of this...

Rogue stealths up to a princely looking target. He thinks "Gee I need a bit more cash, maybe I'll take a quick look in his pockets".

*Picks pocket*

"Oooo. Lockbox, its okay, but not what I was after, oh well put it in my bag and be on my way."

*Your bags are full*

"Dammit! Fine I'll just put it back in his pocket then and clean out my bags"

*Unpicks pocket, returns item*

*Cleans bags*

*Re-picks pocket*

"What the hell - what do you mean it's already picked! I put the damn stuff back!"

I never got this message (that I am aware of) until 2.4, but now it is reproducible on every mob. I have autoloot on, but as we all know, items are still sometimes not picked up, ostensibly due to lag. So in the past whenever I saw something I wanted that wasn't picked up, usually a health pot, I would re-pickpocket, even occasionally using vanish if I had PP'd as part of my opener. Now it's just gone, gone baby gone. Sucks.
