Never gonna happen, i'm too good at lone-wolfing that trade.
O rly?
Although i hope we do get rid of crime, it certainly made it easier to take huge amounts of S/D as factions would just leave some fiefs to get fat. It also made it harder to dump stupidly high garrisons in every single fief.
I don't mind crime. I just want more control over it with methods to reduce it via garrison with increased cost per troop set to keep crime low, silver for the bread and circuses routine, or a purge of the fief in which crime is vastly reduced/wiped out but the fief gives no points, prosperity or population for a week or something.
That way crime still works for its intended purposes but there's more ways to control it other than babysitting fiefs.
