..is the Trib that placed that flag. Trib policy/RP/every cabal stance ever says not to place a flag you aren't 100% sure about.

It sounds like you're pulling some sort of jalim and stealing from people all over the place and logging out. People will actively try to #### you when you do this and you should probably understand that's a part of the process to playing a thief that actively steals. I'm not sure why you'd come complain about it. People see theft in CF as OOC trolling even though its the same as bash/looting someone minus the bash/death. Just save the OOC tells and experiences and save them for when you're gone, they are hilarious to look back on. As Agilus I had some great gems of some prominent 'rp' players breaking role because they lost a shiny thing. Just don't break role yourself and keep it moving, its fun either way.
