"You'll never find another race better fit to steal things, though."
Why was this removed? It certainly seems to be themed for stealth and theft judging by its skill bonuses. Organous 22:40, 15 February 2007 (EST)

Because Khajiit are not thieves, their culture doesn't even have a word or concept for a "thief", Khajiit naturally share their stuff usually and don't mind each other borrowing them (Since Khajiit tend to think in a group mentality with little sense of individual). If a khajiit takes someone elses possesions it's usually a cultural mis-understanding rather than desire for that person's belongings like human culture. Although there is plenty of evidence of war-time raiding, but that has a different mindset (Subverting an enemies materials for your own benefit)

Their stats support being a good thief, but their character mentality does not support it --Ryuujin 10:39, 20 March 2007 (EDT)

I'm aware of that, and I did not intend to call it a race of thieves or otherwise immoral. I was purely speaking from the perspective of the player, that the Khajit is an excellent race to choose if you wish to play primarily as a thief. Organous 09:37, 21 March 2007 (EDT)

Personally, on the subject of the removed sentence, I agree that no other in-game race is so well suited to theivery, should one want to play that way. If the sentence were on Lore:Khajiit, I'd say to remove it. -Somercy 12:23, 21 March 2007 (EDT)
