No, but children kill each other to simulate getting "points" in that Grand Theif Auto 3 game, so if they see other children stealing in this game it will decencitise them to a life of drugs and crime.

I'm going to lobby Mother's Against Drunk Driving and those cultists who picket at military funerals and we're going to petition our state governor to ban this child-crime pormography from corrupting our perfect children!

The items I think npcs should be able to steal is random misc items, gold, food, and low level unenchanted weaponry (iron and steel)...

WHAT?

I've always played violent and otherwise not suited for children video games when I was a kid... I have never been affected by it what so ever... the kids/advlts who get crazy in the head from playing violent and otherwise not suited for children video games probably have slight mental problems already...

Scientists have PROVED that along with rap music, video games and pormography or nudity cause a childs undeveloped mind to be succeptible to the problems that plaque the great USA. Go play your pormography games in North Korea and kill those deserving terrorists and stay away from my friends and family because YOU are a time bomb of homicide.

If you don't believe me, i'll try and locate an episode of FOX news that verifies my statements.

I'll sign up!! We can burn an effigy of marilyn Manson at our first press even...

I'm against children stealing mainly because you can't do anything about it. If this is implemented you should be able to knock them over and threaten them with a weapon or spell to get your stuff back. Also, as you kill advlt pickpockets and scare children word should get around that you're not a viable target, so the harrassment should be far less frequent or stop entirely.

If they're really going to do this lets make it as realistic as possible.

Only if we blame all the natural disasters on homosixuality...

Lol you try explaining that one in court next time you get pickpocketed of your good by a minor lol "I wasn't gunna stab ya, I was just gunna cut ya honest!!" lol realistic would be to tell the guards they would know of the ruffian and get your stuff back.

and YOU are proof that even though (from the sound of it) you have hidden from the world your entire life you have turned out so messed up that you think I'm not able to maintain my sense of reality and that just because I've played GTA 2 as a kid I'm going to attempt to kill someone in an attempt to gain points! Sure a few people who have been raised to believe whatever they hear might go crazy if they play GTA where the goal is to kill... but luckily I haven't been raised to rob a bank if some random guy tells me to, which just proves that its a stupid idea to teach your children to obay you without question, and that its because of this kind of parenting some children can become crazy (they've been raised to be it) if they play GTA.

This has taken a wrong turning somewhere in the discussion.
