I'd like to suggest disable stealing in guarded cities (VC,  NCR, JunkT).
Its nice that in this cities are guards who "protect" you (or kill the attacker you died lol), but when you're robbed by someone you can't kill him as a justice because of guards.
Maybe this is too extreme, but at least please disable being robbed during crafting and trading.
Ty for response

Stealing is nerfed to hell already, on top of this we have a flagging system and negative rep regardless if steal was successful or not. Disable stealing in safe towns may as well remove the steal function from game all together. Agreed, Some sort of safe trading platform is needed and would be great, but not at the expense of steal

[lord luba]

I dont mind stealing as the function itself, but at least during trading it has to be restricted

[Ghosthack]

Won't happen anytime soon and probably never.

You can kill a thief if you see that he steals, even if guards didn't see it. All other people in that city also can kill him infinite number of times. You just have to remember that you can kill that guy only for a certain period of time (not sure, but at least for 20 minutes).
It is very very easy to give a good lesson to any thief.

If you want to practice, just shout in NCR that you want to buy 10 mentats for 30k right now and just have fun with thieves.

Interesting, that "you can kill him" means guards won't attack me?
But ty for info anyway

Exactly. And they won't even touch anyone else who will try to kill that thief.
As I told you, if you don't believe - make your own test.

Btw, same thing will happen if someone hit you. That guy will be in the same KOS list for some time.

P.S. Just be careful, sometimes people provoke you to attack them acting like thieves but instead of Steal skill they use Repair or Science on you.

i dont see a point of disable stealing, and nerfing more this skill
for this moment playing as a thief is complety pointless - most of players in ncr keeping value items in hand, stealing ammo from caravans is pretty hardcore becouse of lag and caravan script - i have about 1,5 secound for did that

So, are you telling me, that if in NCR near workbench someone steals from me (is tagged) and i will pull out my gun and kill him, guards dont react? I doubt that, because every time i pull out my weapon in town, nearby guard says that it is not allowed, and after while he attacks me.

[Lexx]

Running around with a gun in a area where it's not allowed, is a different thing. But you can still attack him.

And disable shooting and fallouting, disable bad language and let's all kiss each other...
And make a timeout on shooting, one shot per 2 minutes ;]

Ironic post. Hope Fallout remains Fallout. If you can't pay attention to your character, you should play a stress free RPG game. Stealing is harder than you think.
