I come to you all after a long and storied UO history. I first started in Lake Superior many moons ago, and over the next few years, my theif developed quite a reputation for himself. His name was Storm. I took house looting to a whole different level.
Here is the gimic (was)
1. Steal the rune that said "house" , "casa", "my place"...you get the idea
2. Open up MS Excel and enter the name of the character and any of his other characters that I knew to be him
3. Be patient. this is where most people messed up. they would go for a rune and a key right away....tipped off the mark to easy.
4. A week, month, year later...when you see a key on the guy then you steal it..but only if you alrady had a rune to his house. And then you got killed right away...after a short chase.
5. But did I mention I had 40 tinker? Just enough tinker to make a key, put it in a green bag, and then drop the green bag on the ground during the chase. It just happened to blend well with the grass

I die, the owner gets the original key back and feels perfectly safe. I mean after all...I don't even know where he lives right?

6 Wait until about 2am and then go check out your new diggs. I once looted an entire 2 story house while he and his friends were sparring two screens away. Took me about 2 hours, and they came back in to find mostly empty chests...and a book in the middle of the house that said "your house has been hit buy a hurricane. call the insurance adjuster."
And thus my UO career started and i was hooked.
I have since moved to SP long ago and currently I am tired of people looting all of my stuff in less than a second flat when I die..so I would sincerely like to return the favor.
Oh, and I love harleys, chocolate, and I am a master class pool player.
