Vaults can still be buggy

I have no idea how many players have lost items due to a buggy vault (I know that I have a long time ago), but just now there was a player who said that they lost class-related items like their own written books and potions. They even mentioned that they lost books from 2016. It's kinda unacceptable to be using a vault storage system that can end up being buggy and I'm unsure about how often it has happened, but I'm certain that Players expect their own Vaults to be a safe spot for their own items. What's worse is that there isn't a way to help players with their lost items.

Suggestions:
  • Put a Disclaimer in the Vault Shop Banker where a player buys a vault. (i don't know if there is one already). The Disclaimer should say that the vault can be buggy and you'll lose items.
  • Identify why vaults reset for players. There could be specific items such as books or enchanted items that may cause vaults to reset, or it could be something wrong with the plugin that just randomly resets a player's vault.
  • If a specific group of items causes the vault to reset, then find a way to disable them from being stored in a vault.
  • Find a way to rollback a vault if a player's vault has been identified as buggy.
  • Better vault system?

It hasn't happened that often, I believe. Regardless, I definitely think a disclaimer should be put in the vault shop banker or it could even just be a simple sign in the vault area. This would be an easy solution that would warn players and would help prevent losing valuable items. Of course it would be better to solve the problem, or identify a fix, but that might take a lot of effort and might be very difficult, so for the mean time, just adding some sort of disclaimer would be great!

Hello again @Psycho!
Unfortunately, we have decided not to implement your suggestion because the Development Team has plans coming soon regarding vaults which would make your suggested changes fairly short-lived and unnecessary afterwards.
Nevertheless, thank you for suggesting this to us and we hope it does not discourage you from making more suggestions!
Stay safe and have a great day!
