No pickpocketing of other players, but there are plenty of NPCs out there to be targets. A worthwhile thought.

Go to your profile->edit profile-> down below is a place to link an IMG file from a hosting service. (I use tinypics, It's free) and I don't know the size allowed but I went with the size requirement under the page profile pic which is 1.94 mb and just made sure mine was under that.
I would think social progression would refer to diplomacy/charisma skills.
But, we will see. Hopefully more will be good in any case.

Stretch goals are things they were going to add to the game just at a later date than expected. I'm guessing the pick pocket answer will stick regardlesss as they don't seem to want it to be in the game based on their answer. As for far into the future.... maybe

By Social Progression Paths I would assume they just mean progression within one of the three guilds mentioned on the stretch goal.
How they do that is going to be interesting. I presume it would mean quests handed out by more senior NPC members of the guild you join. I wonder if a player could progress to a very senior rank within a guild? Even the leader, perhaps? King Of The Thieves title?
Things like this have been done in a number of MMOs and single player games, but the interesting thing will be to see how they incorporate it in to the nodes system. Would there be a separate branch of each guild for each different metropolis, or even different nodes, for example?
As for pickpocketing, whilst Steven has said there will be no thieving skills in game, that surely can't rule out a quest that simulates you picking the pocket of NPCs. Though I did wonder if that when he said no thieving skills whether he was referring to player against player. As far back as EQ had a skill that allowed you to pick the pockets of NPCs. That should be easy enough to include within the game.

Unlucky
but imagine, a huge invasion in a metropolis. your allies are backing down, but the enemies are dying mysteriously, one after another.
lol it's just me. I'm killing them with my super stealthy mage/rogue
