TIRED OF 1 STAR POPPING?
Well guess what? You're in the right place.
You know how once you attack a player or a transportation, your name turns pink?
The time that you're name will stay pink is exactly 20 seconds.
After 20 seconds, you're name will become white again, if and only if no one has attacked you within that 20 seconds.
(or else the timer will start all over)
I'm going to show you how to make use of this 20 seconds delay.
PINK NAME TRAP
Watch the distance between you and the trader, and watch the time.
It really helps if you have a stopwatch.
Situation
You are a thief, and you just spotted a one star trader.
Preparation
I strongly recommend a bow, since you can attack from a distance.
You must be a fast runner.
And, you might want high defense.
First, take that thief uniform off, and save it for later.
Then, look for a one star trader.
Once you have found one, attack the trader or his transportation, which will give you a pink name.
When the trader notices that he's been attacked, chances are, he will try to cast a revenge.
RUN AWAY, but not too far, enough to play tag with the trader, WITH OUT BEING ATTACKED.
(Remember! The 20 seconds timer only starts after the last attack.)
When you run, try to make a large arc, and if the trader seems to be running after you in a smaller arc like the image below,
that means that he has double clicked you to attack.
(green-trader, yellow-you, orange-transportion)
Your pink name will disappear 20 seconds after the last attack that you've made.
In a second or two before your name turns pink, get within range of the trader's attack.
You have succeeded if the trader has attacked you right after your name turned white.
In other words, the trader's name is now pink, and your name is white.
Since the trader has the pink name, you are free to beat the trader's ass without getting penalized.
Now, all you have to do is kill the pink-named trader and the transportation.
Kill the trader first, because you can get help from NPC thieves, and to prevent him to become white-name again.
This is another reason why it's good to be a fast runner since the trader can run away for 20 seconds, just like you did.
When you have killed the trader, put your thief uniform on, and summon your transportation.
(There was another trap that could be used just incase the trader comes back in rage, but after this update they did long time ago,
a delay was created to take off you're uniform/cloak. Therefore, you can't use the trap anymore. Sorry.)
So here's a suggestion.
If the trader is strong enough, right when your name turns white, summon a red horse (the weakest).
By doing this, the trader will kill your horse, and you can make the trader have a red name instead of pink.
This way, the trader cannot summon a transportation for a while.
It sounds so easy when you read it, but you'll need some practice.
TRUST ME, IT WORKS.

This is how they do it. They just spawn their cargo of stuff right next to the one star merchant; then annoyingly follow the 1 star until hi lvl npc thiefs spawn and kill the merchant and transport; then the thief just take the cargo that's dropped. It's that simple it seems. I really hate asshole thiefs like that btw. 
You could do the same with botters.
.Only that NPC's should attack the transport they're after, not the first lvl 10 player they see
