Yeah, well Bumble will gladly share all treasure so gained.  Even willing
to have a neutral third party intervene if people don't trust her.

My biggest gripe is those people that give their characters the Quest to
gather treasure for 40 destiny points.  These are the people you got to
watch out for.  After all, if someone is using Steal Treasure, then you
know about it (if you do not know about it then you have no reason to
distrust that person anyway).  When certain characters start picking up 6
items while everyone else is getting 2, then the warning bells should sound.
