Buried treasure disappears when the maps are gone, and I think that's a serious issue. I recently spent 4 hours burying my giant haul of treasure in a secret location only to find when I logged off that the treasure had been destroyed cause I logged off. In my opinion, it should be tied to the player who buried it and as long as they are on the server so is the treasure, cause that's 4 hours of hard work gone in 1 microsecond. I had just looted a great shipwreck and buried to my best estimate(from memory) about 20 - 30 pieces of treasure which took me so long I wasn't even able to do any voyages or anything.

@d3adst1ck Thank you for the quick response. I just wanted to point out that when I cash it in, it's taken by the server so I can't keep it. Also, part of the reason I buried it in the first place is because it's a really good gameplay experience to be able to have a secret stash somewhere, and it makes the fact you can bury it worthwhile.
Thank you for your time and attention on this.
When I was new, I buried treasure on an island at a certain spot so I wouldn't forget. I then took the map and tossed it overboard.
I later return to the spot, only to find it gone. When the map sank, my hidden treasure vanished.

You do realize that by logging off, you are also off the server?
There is an allotted time if you are logged off by accident for you to return to your ship with mostly everything intact including your inventory and maps etc.
You were probably logged out for more than a few minutes and the game reset your state. That’s pretty normal.
Map bundles that persist between servers (except a merge) and logins don’t happen.
