Legend does not support an automatic donate command, but you can feel free to
put objects in which you are not interested, but think others might be in the
lost and found boxes found in various inns.

You can also offer things for sale or for charity on the auction channel.

Items put into a lost and found box are considered 'donated'. That means a
flag 'ITEM_DONATED' will be applied to them. The intention of this procedure
is to avoid any misuse of 'donated' equipment (e. g. looting those boxes and
selling the eq off for the pure purpose of money gathering). The
'ITEM_DONATED'-flag is basically a timer that is set upon the corresponding
item. This timer will count down wherever the item is, and will remove the
'ITEM_DONATED'-flag as soon as it ran out.

While the 'ITEM_DONATED'-flag is active, the timer will not be modified.
Putting such an item back into a lost and found box again will not modify the
timer. Nevertheless, a new timer will be applied if a timer ran out and the
item is 're'-donated, i. e. put into a lost and found box again.

sellers nor can they be auctioned. Also if you store items carrying that flag
