Why isn't throw implemented yet? I think it would be a big plus for rogues to be able to use spears and throwing daggers. How come I can use a crossbow (I'm lookin 4 one BTW) and not daggers? If anybody knows anything about this post it here.

Because you apparently haven't read the LAST 86 OR SO POSTS about ranged before posting this, ranged combat still has major bugs in it. No coder in what passes for their right mind is going to make a duplicate version of an already buggy piece of code and attach it to a new piece of code that will likely have bugs too.
And since you don't seem to be well read on the subject, I'll also point out that ranged is only effective for combat in the same room, something rogues already excel at. Ranged weapons for rogues would not do as much damage.

You fire a black-shafted elven arrow to the east at Gormal's pet goat with masterful shooting that does lethal damage!

"yeah, we wouldnt do much more damage, but damn does that fireshield hurt "
Course, everything that shields itself by spells can missile shield itself and pretty much everything that is naturally shielded is wraithform . . .
