Thieves are great. They're what makes this game unique. Nothing quite like having to watch your shit and being paranoid when you go AFK.
So...I'm pretty sure you have to be in the Thieves Guild to steal from other players.
I was wondering: Can you kill somebody who is in the Thieves Guild regardless as to whether or not they're "blue" or "perma-grey" to you?
Like if I met Person X who stole something, died and was blue to me again, could I still throw a few E-Bolts at him even if he highlights blue w/o getting G-Whacked in town?
Cheers,
Vin

So let me get this straight, if they have stolen from you at all in the past you can kill them no matter what colour they are to you?

I may have misrepresented that. No, if he hasn't stolen since he died it is criminal to attack him. Mebers of the thieves guild can't report murders though. It was a quick answer and I was kind of sleepy. I'll try to dig up a more detailed outline of thief notoriety scenarios on the old stratics pages. It's kinda complex.

I'll let you guys know what the answer is when I try and kill a few members of the TG in town naked and with an empty bag 'cept a couple of regs =]

Bump
[edit]
Stealing from yourself shouldn't give you skill gains. That's cheating =]

Oh, and by the way: If any thief is perma-grey to anyone, that means you can attack them.
This is, of course, assuming they're perma-gray to anyone in the first place.
In which case, if they aren't, you're fucked...
But they usually are =]
