Decay timer for nodes and chests

I'm not aware if there is already one, but occasionally as many of us do we find either harvesting nodes with just fish bait left on it or a treasure chests with one piece left in the box.
Be it either laziness or desperation to manage inventory space, it is a nuisance and sometimes a disappointment in discovery.

My suggestion is to have a 60 sec timer begin on nodes and chests once something has been removed from it, so that it disappears in lieu of lingering.

    Last time someone checked chests, it was 10 minutes.

    Psijic portals aren't autoloot.

    You're right, I created a new character and I didn't realize that I had autoloot enabled.

    In my case it's not laziness or a lack of space, I just like leaving something for the next person. I only do it on one toon- the only one who doesn't have auto loot on.

    I often empty other peoples chests too, it doesn't bother me at all. Everything's worth something. You didn't want that green axe that's not even from a set? No worries, I'll happily sell it for 20 gold!

    My one toon who's picky... it's a role playing thing I guess.

    Most annoying people are those who are low level or have low passive level for a crafting skill, go out and sample the node and leave everything in it. Then you come up, see that which to you looks like a max tier node, harvest it then you're left with low tier raw materials like iron, cotton, maple etc. I mean for them the node already correctly shows what's in it, why even bother pick it up if you don't need it?
