Skins randomly change on boxes, doors, etc

Hi,
For several weeks players and me have noticed a strange bug that some items, especially large boxes - randomly change skin withoyt player interactions with them. Sometimes this happens also for unskinned vanilla items - e.g. I place a large box, return to base after some time and it now has random skin applied.

Any clues how this could be happening in this plugin? or from something else?

 

We were not able to catch it as it happens randomly from time to time

good luck getting any help. I have messaged him and posted in support. Still no reply. At this point I wish I bought a different skinning plugin. I still want to know why I can skin to an industrial torch on two of my accounts and other people can too and we dont own the pack. I dont want to violate TOS and I have my settings correct to not allow unowned skins. He won't reply. I am about to move my question to suggestions where at least maybe someone will say something. I messaged him September 10th and multiple times since.

This is a known bug with Rust. This will happen in vanilla servers that don't even have a skin plugin running.
