I agree here. If there is no godmodding and if the "thief" is good at what they do, then you should never know that they are a thief. I, for one, am absolutely for the anti-hero concept and I have been very fond of playing, if not a thief, at least an assassin. If we all had perfect hero characters, then RP wouldn't be nearly as fun.
That said, if a "thief" lets themselves get caught or otherwise blatantly makes it obvious tha they are a thief, then they have to deal with the IC consequences. But don't punish them or critique them OOCly. That's just being elitist.
