I think that the term "Thieves Guild" is romanticizing crime. Anyone that has gotten the guild from Mae'Var soon finds out that this is not just a *second story* outfit. The "thieves guild" is organized crime..the Mob. They are involved in extortion, blackmail, robbery, murder, protection rackets, and slaving. As soon as I saw what was REALLY involved, I let the guild lapse back to Renal, and went about my normal *taking things that don't belong to me*,, ordinary theft.

Also,, does anyone here manipulate rep in order to keep npc's quiet? Inquiring minds want to know!! I'll kill a random noble that pisses me off just to lower rep and shut the npc's up.
