Well if their only other income was the dole they would probably assume that it was all robbed. I think if any legitmate player crosses the line into thieving they can't really expect anyone to think they made any of it fairly if they get caught.

Agree with most things you say trayhop but it even says on websites for keys that you cant get nicked! I realise what your saying in general though!

Carrying a key is for bloody ametuars, it's plain and simple. If your a sucessful player who earns good money the last thing you would want to do is have a key on you. They are totally pointless and just make you look shifty when you use one. I'd rather pack the game in than rely on one, but hey, maybe thats just me.

Keys are still usefull if you know your float days and have non note payout units or old emptys on your route.
