How about tagging stolen items for impossible to be deleted for x amount of time, once the culprit has stolen it. So the victim has a chance to get his stuff back?
How to prevent people from deleting items after looting!

Not sure if nobody of you played MO1 in the last few years but there is already a feature in place that prevents deleting items that got looted from blue people to prevent grief through instant-deleting. They will be marked as stolen (for 3 minutes?) and can only be carried, or put back into the loot bag. And only after the criminal-countdown it can be deleted.
Just saying for the sake of completeness.

Items destruction should be possible but only with some kind of "decay timer", not instant ofc.
that's absolutely a garbage mentality and again ...unrealistic , and not deleting enemy loot is not "carebear" in the slightest. If you have good teamwork and skill you still would be able to prevent them from coming to get their stuff.
And you'll have loads of spare gear, which i've heard somewhere we might be getting a recycling mechanic to break down items?
I question your experience.
Silly to call realism in a game with magic spells.
Team work when you are fighting 3 people and want to delete gear so you can beat them instead of fighting until they eventually overwhelm you? Or when you have a few guys outside of town fighting all comers and they can just res and run back out with the guards in 30 seconds and be right back into the fight?
Carebear IS being so afraid to lose your loot that you ask for a mechanic to crutch on.
The loot is still gone though? So how is it carebear to expect people to actually have to deal with the consequences?
If anything you are on the fence of carebearism here, you're the one who want it easy.
You kill someone, if you want to make sure they or someone else dont get the loot, grab it. If you don't want the gear yourself, just go drop it off in a bush somewhere? Or bring it with you and destroy it when you are in a safer area?
God damn carebears always wanting the easy way out.
With how you want it, how about when you die, everything on your body just disappears. No loot mmo, best game ever.

What? I want to be able to delete loot, you want it to remain on the ground for the defeated person to recover. How am I carebear?
Yes, I want to grab their loot and delete some of it because you cannot carry enough and still run.
being this game highly influenced by UO, i vote for no deleting unless you're near a trashcan
Helm, torso and weapon will easily range to 10-15 kg. So you might be able to combat loot 4 enemies (assuming you are a max strength character and carry no spare gear youself). Not being able to delete will hamper the possibility to fight enemies with big numbers but low skill.
It´s not exactly a carebear suggestion and I get where people are coming from, but with the current combat I don´t think cutting down the few options small groups have is a good idea.

Well if you don't actually want the loot, just picking it up and dropping it somewhere else is basically enough to keep them from coming back to regear though.
You aren't understanding, you need to be able to delete them mid -fight so that you can keep looting and fighting.
