Like anything stackable you can't steal it all in one shot so you don't have the risk of losing a stack of 10k scrolls in 1 steal attempt.
You cannot steal checks and you can lose a commodity deed from getting killed just the same.
There are tons of ways to protect yourself from thieves, you just have to pay attention and be clever. I'd suggest you try out stealing on someone else, that way you understand the mechanics of how its set up and you will be able to spot someone who might steal from you easier.
Good to know that you can't steal checks, and for commodity deeds I guess if it can happen when you get killed then that's cool with stealing, except it can happen in a guarded area... Maybe it will be worth my endless hours of GMing it lol.

Its not about what they have equipped, its all about knowing when and where they are likely to take it off.
That's exactly what I was getting at lol. Very rarely is someone going to have a good armor/weapon on them that's not equipped. We aren't all Rabbi running around with 3 black widows

If you are using razor, which it sounds like you are, you can change the timeout delay. Right click on wait for target and select edit timeout. This can be done with wait for gump too and surprisingly not many people know about it.
Yes I am using Razor, and since there's no gump for stealing I added a manual delay of 5 seconds since with 4 it screwed up for some of my other macros they do use wait for gump, which is a default action added in when you press a button in the gump actually.
Shade, parles-tu francais? Peut-etre on vas se comprendre l'un l'autre mieux que en anglais!
For anyone who read my last post about macro times, I gained from 87-90.4 from 7am-6pm in case you were wondering.
