I have to tell you that in general I loved the bounty system, but things are out of control. In less than 1 week everybody will have a wanted status. I suggest 2 things... that players with low sec status should be allowed to have a bounty placed on their heads due his criminals status (like it was before the patch) and players who have kill rights should be able to place bounties over the ones who killed them as a form of "vengeance" no matter what is the player status. thats what I think, because right now its like a wanted status fest in eve.

In a month, it'll have calmed down a bit. No sense in making changes while everyone's still more interested in just messing around with the system than actually using it.

Also, it's really quite amusing to go on a roam and get paid for every kill.

Don't worry. They broke the bounty system. I had a 65 mil isk bounty on me 2 days ago and now it is magically 0. They are stealthily gobbling up our bounty isk so eventually noone wll have one. Besides I like getting paid to kill people.

Interesting.

If you are interested in placing bounties on anyone else ever you should probably petition that, I suspect a bug.

No restrictions. Their security standing with Concord, has no relevance on why I placed a bounty and why they now have a wanted sign on their pic.

I don't care if you're a +7. If I decide you need to die, then your going to get a wanted sign.
