I don't want to spot a thief when he is stealing something, because we're working together, should I look at opposite direction everytime if thieves working together/have someone to hold thier items?
If you say about party tagging, then thief can tag thier victim.
So it won't work until party-system will be changed like Izual suggested at one old thread.

I kinda meant that more people means less chances to get caught because guards have more targets to watch.

Oh, ok, then how a thief can steal something from a guy, when 5 his friends looking at this thief? ^_^

It would only concern npc guards mostly because they announce the thief publicly once they see him. The five friends are also looking at many other things unless they tagged the thief. But honestly I've got not good solution how bystanders would spot stealing and what should happen when they do.

I like a lot of suggestions in this thread. If some of the 'nerfing' ones were implemented it would probably even be acceptable to remove the animation for successful steal attempts like Nyan wants.

What about a check against the victims free carry weight? If they have a >50% full backpack then they don't get this bonus, but if they have 99% empty backpack they get a 49% bonus against a steal attempt. It was suggested before and it would definitely factor into this.
About other players seeing thieves, maybe if they have more than -200 town reputation they could report it to a guard. I don't know how you could let them know they saw it though, probably just a message in the messagebox.
