When did it stop being ungentlemanly to steal from other players on TA?

Qaid has tried to steal from you!!!
The sneaky thief's succeeded in stealing 3 magic nubs from you!
Your prayers have decreased the calamities upon you.
An army of 85191 monsters is awaiting you towards south.
The evil person Qaid was seen here an instant ago.
Qaid is around here too.

I believed we were working together against the armies and to rebuild.
Qaid, you are to be hunted!!!
