 Description   

Adult villagers despawn once the chunk is unloaded. Using spawn eggs I spawned a few villager's, warp to another location so the chunk unloads. On returning the villagers are gone. Although, child villagers don't disappear.

Ive been getting comlaints from players about their villagers disappearing for a while, I assumed it was zombies killing them until I investigated further.

Found the problem, it was Citizens. I had a dev version installed, tried the recommended version and the villagers still disappeared. Solution, remove citizens. Any one else like to see if you get the same result as I did?

Thanks for checking that, after work I'll start removing plugins to try and find what's causing it, already tried removing, creeperheal, grief protection and worldguard. I'll report back here asap.
