That is true. Or they could just break down your walls... Or roof... Or {Insert anything structural device created by player}.
Would locked chests respawn if the chest was destroyed (similar to the lock mod on Multi-player servers)? If so... I don't know. You could just make a whole house out of them and it could literally never be griefed.

Kinda takes the fun out of it... Not griefing. I mean making a house and the traps that protect it.
Key would need to be assigned to a door. So...Maybe you make a bare key. Then you right click on the door, or chest, and the key changes to that door/chest. [] [] []
Whoa, let me redo that XD

thats exactly what should be done but I think the key should be made of stone, being easier to get. the keys will be fun in multiplayer roleplaing because if you kill someone you can take the key to their stuff.
Stone? How would you make a stone key? XD

I would like to be able to open iron doors with a key. The best we have currently is a well hidden switch, but even that doesn't work well because the person can just walk up to your door and add his own lever.
Maybe keyed doors and chests could become more durable (though not invincible) than normal doors. Maybe they could add durability to a few blocks surrounding them.
this is one of those things i want just for the aesthetic value of having it. having a locked chest implies to to others that THIS chest is more important, and i dont want you touching it.
but in reality... i cant imagine any scheme thats truly greifer proof in minecraft, and everything used to prevent grief could also be used to grief in a new way.... like you make a chest thats locked and now i cant have your bacon, so i make a chest thats locked too and place it directly on top of YOUR chest so now you dont get any bacon either :tongue.gif:
i like the idea where you craft the padlock, and then when you atach it to something it becomes the key that REMOVES the padlock... thats my prefered of the methods suggested so far.
but in the end a lock in MC is the same as a lock in RL... it keeeps the honest people honest, by regect their claim to deniability, and it makes crooks crooked... by forcing them to go further to be crooks... and making them more obvious in there behavior.
greifers should just be booted and thats all, id rather have a good server than a bad method of prevention.

This game has lost its balls. Please introduce a harder difficulty setting.
While I agree with Puppy_Luv about having good servers instead of bad in-game counter measures for griefing, until that is actually done this could work quite well. You can't put more than two chests near each other so griefers can still get in through the gaps so I have no problem with it being invincible. It seems like a good way to protect your swag.
The easy use for it is equip key, right click chest, and it gets locked with a number 0-9 on it. The key gets a 'quantity' of the same value so you know what key is for what. You can only lock 10 chests (or large chests) at any one time. And forget the stuff about the doors. While it would be nice people can get past a door simple enough, even with a lot of the traps set up around them you typically see.

Things that would need to be added:
[*:l7ahcha5]Locked Doors(Wood or Iron)
[*:l7ahcha5]Key(Wood or Iron)
[*:l7ahcha5]Locked Chest
Doors would be impossible however.
Even if you locked a door, all someone needs to do is dig out the floor to remove it.
The best discussion I've seen for locked chests would be "moveable like normal" when unlocked and "indestructuble" while locked.
