The article currently defines a stash as "a safe repository of useful kit." Why not also a safe repository of useless junk? I have personally never left anything useful behind me - I just drop the least useful stuff if I need to. I usually find/wish for a bag (of holding) early enough for that not to be a problem. Wands are bad as monsters could use them against me but I don't need 47 wands of striking myself, so I just stash those somewhere safe and forget about them. Sometimes I leave large amounts of money in a stash and come get them later, but often the Fort Ludios or a new gold stash is closer than the old one, so I can forget about that too. The surroundings of the altars I find often look like junk yards. --ZeroOne 13:42, 28 July 2006 (UTC)
