I disagree with this idea... (I have tons of thieves btw). If thieves were allowed to pk in town then to make the game fair all classes should be able to if "covert" or hidden.. and all classes have the ability to "hide" themselves via invisibility, camoflauge, or even tarma pots. If a place is safe, it needs to be made that way for all classes. The only possible exception I can even see is perhaps a certain street within a town, that is made public knowledge or even described as a dangerous spot. ie., if the alleyway in nightmist was made as an area that other players could "PK" in, then the description could be modified to read something along the lines of:
As you move through the alleyway it is apparrant that there is likely to be danger about. No guards are present for your protection. It is best that you move quickly or be prepared for unknown battles.
That is just an example... but, all in all, I too think that this would cause utter chaos. Thieves have plenty of places out of town to PK if they are going to do so. Nightmist is an area that new players are just getting the hang of the game and learning their way around. There is enough danger that they will be subjected to as they venture out of town.
Just my thoughts on the matter.
