Is this true? So if a player sees stuff disappearing from his inventory and he knows who did it, he can shoot the thief without guards interfering?

_Youkai_:
Make it like UO.  :P

If you notice tha someone is stealing from you, you shout "Guards" then guards kill the bastard. If thief is to far away from you or already passed 10 secs  it will not work.

You don't understand what the bug is. It isn't just if you LOOK at someones inventory via steal, you have to actually successfully steal something. And then you are still unprotected even if steal was successful. I tested it a little.  ;)

Then it works differently in towns and bases. Anyway flagging work like magical thing that does not follow logic. As I see it one should get flagged only when he is spotted by player or by guard. By guard its obvious that they yell at you. But player don't poses the means how to report/flag thief yet. But I think what _Youkai_ said could be modified and used here. But not to kill thieves but just to flag them by other players. Once players will be able to flag thief, they can be 100% sure they can defend themselves with guns and kill him. Also this player flagging thing should be somehow checked by NPCs to prevent abuse so if someone sees and reports a thief then NPCs will focus on him for 3 min and if he try to steal again in this time he will most likely get flagged no matter what his sneak/steal skill is.
