Setting gold on ground in Starwood

If you set down gold in Starwood village, it disappears.  Coravain lost 160 and Fipya lost 94, before we realized what happened.  Please look into this, DMs?

Those damn money grubbing Stargazers.

Well, of course by 'look into this' I mean, please see that it does occur and perhaps fix or announce it as a known bug, not formulate the IC reasons that a bug happened.  It feels a bit sarcastic, as if you think I'm trying to get my stuff back and not address an actual 'bug' I found.  

I'm aware of the EfU policy of 'DMs won't give back what you've lost because they can't verify you've actually lost it' and I'm not asking for the sum of all the gold I've earned in a week of playing to be placed back in my pack.

I know it's not often that people set gold down on the ground, but it sometimes happens when people are splitting up loot, or because they are exchanging gold in what seems the IC manner for them at the time.  However, as I said before, it was the sum of ALL the gold I've earned in the past week and it was very disheartening to see it go down the tubes.  Fipya is saving up for some nice armor, you know :(

I'd like to spare future gold setter downers that intense emotional distress.

No, you have it all wrong. I find it completely absurd and taken completely aback that gold or dropped items would simply dissapear on the wooden bridge of that tileset...

It's not a script... it's nothing really except a bioware bug that I had never heard about before.

It makes 0 sense to me. I didn't want to insult you. Just put emphasize on the absurdity of the thing

OK!  Just wasn't sure if you thought I was being serious.  Reading my original post myself I could see how someone might think, "Oh, boy... this guy's trying to bamboozle some gold back from us!"  So wanted to clarify, while also pointing out how sad I was :(

Internetz.  Good for getting together, bad for tone.  Half the times I make supportive sarcastic comments, I end up confusing the hell out of whoever I'm trying to support!

Thanks, Mort, I appreciate you clarifying.
