Steal
To steal has several meanings:
- To pickpocket an NPC or to steal goods from a stall through Thieving
- To approach a rock and mine the ore whilst another player is already mining, ending with the original miner not receiving the ore. (a form of Spot stealing)
- To attack a monster whilst another player is already fighting it. This is commonly referred to as Kill stealing
- To take arrows from the ground that another player has recently used—see arrow stealing (not usually an act of theft since the "owner" of the arrows had 30 - 60 seconds to pick them up before anyone else could see them)
- A misspelling of steel (the metal bar made when smelting one Iron ore with two Coal ores)
