Bug "XXX has disabled lwc protection on your tomb chest"

I'm not sure if this is really a bug or not. I'm reporting it in here because no one else had ever heard of it happening before and I'm unaware of any skill that lets you disable lwc protection on chests (though admittedly, I'm not exactly an expert on all the skills and abilities of the server either).

Here's the timeline of what happened.

I'm in an area, working on a building. Player A comes and kills me. I come back from the graveyard, collect my death chest stuff, make sure I'm loaded back up with another chest and sign, and then resume building. Then Player B comes up and kills me. I come back from the graveyard to the building site (mots likely the same chunk where I died), but Player B (and Player A) are back at my building site, and begin attacking me before I can get to my tomb chest. I run away like a scared little bitch because I suck at PVP, and figure I'll just go get my tomb chest later.

I successfully run away, presumably combat ends, but a few seconds later I get a message:

"Player B has disabled lwc protection on your tomb chest"

Then, presumably, it got looted and all my stuff got taken (or at least the one or two valuables I had, but the really pain in the ass to get building materials that weren't valuable were probably dropped in a volcano or something.

Anyway... I posted about this in another area of the forums, asking if this was to be expected, was there a skill or set of circumstances that allows this to happen, and the answer I got from others was "Nope, never heard of it before."

So I'm posting it here. Again, not sure that it's a bug, if there was actually a message coded to tell me about it happening, but figured it was worth inquiring about. I'm not asking for any sort of reimbursement, by the way, I just want to know if it's to be expected and if so, what the circumstances are that allow it so that I can avoid it in the future. I rarely carry valuables on me, but my building materials are very important to my work.

I know that lwcs on death chests are removed after an amount of time, but I am unaware of the message that it gave you and what it means

Correct, death chest protection gets removed after X minutes. You have a "chance" to get your gear back because its protected.
