Ive been giving this some thoughts the last couple of days. I currently play on two servers, and I will be going on a 14 day holiday later in the year. Effectively I will lose everything as there is no simple way of logging in or getting the admins to extend the period to 3 weeks of inactivity, the same for all my vehicles and safe :(

I think Origins should have a 'Vacation Mode' where everything you own can be locked down for a certain period of time - but you cant log back in until that time has expired (this would stop players from trying to protect their things from normal game play).

That would be a good feature as ive seen alot of people with the same issue. Just find somone you trust with your steam pw(like darren) and have them log in and refresh your stuff for you.

I can try to keep your vehicles refreshed but i have a hard enough time with mine so no promises.

"Yes ms. Smith, just water the plants, feed the pets and log into origins for me so i dont lose my houses(house sitting inception lol). And look out for bandits for gods sake."

I believe it is 3 days. Possibly 4 but i never chance it. Maybe someone can comfirm but it seems like its longer with locked vehicles.
