I feel that Stealing warrents from pilfering should not have an effect on forcing you "open".
When you do pilfering from shops, you are training stealing against the game - not against other players. One thing has absolutely nothing to do with the other. You are not harming any other players.
if you can't practice on players without being "open", and can't practice on the shops, how exactly are you supposed to gain ranks in the skill?

I didn't think that stealing from shops set you Open. Maybe you did something else that set you to Open?

Was it your necro? I thought getting accused of anything that can generate SO and give you attention sets you to Open, not just a Forbidden Practices charge.

didn't do anything else, and yes it was the necro. i didn't see myself actually get caught, when i scrolled back after i got the "burn her" messaging. with 4 other people in the game at the time i don't think i was accused, as i checked with my mm to see where they were at afterwards, and none of them i saw were in town with the possible exception of a thief which i wasn't able to locate. <and thieves aren't encouraged to accuse at any rate>. I DID manage to successfully plead innocent <for both charges, got a forbidden practices charge along with the pilfer>, but i still had to wait out the time to switch back to guarded.

I took the liberty of checking your logs, and without going into too much detail I will say this:
Everything appears to be working as intended, and your change in profile had nothing to do with PvE stealing and everything to do with being a necromancer.
Let me be absolutely clear: Stealing from shops will not, and does not, have any influence on your profile.

That's not something anyone will tell you.
But it wasn't stealing.

On a side note can the mm char gain social outrage for logging in to see who might have accused the necromancer?
Aiding and abetting at the very least?

locating doesn't cause social outrage. neither does shadewatch mirror. check with Kssarh. :-)

Instantaneous familial communication and use of the "stat full" list are parts of the bedrock of roleplaying quality.

If it was a pc, that's all well and good, part of the game, etc. I just wanted to make sure that it wasn't a game mechanic forcing someone that wasn't committing any hostile act against another PLAYER into a pvp situation, which I pretty much gathered that it wasn't from solomon's reply.
with the way eotb works, based on posts by other necro characters, I had thought that one could possibly be "accused" by the NPC shopkeepers.
