PLEX prices and new bounty system

I got this weird feeling that everyone and their aunt have a list of people they want revenge on and will be throwing around bounty money like mad come the new patch. I also got the feeling that buying a PLEX is a great way to get some extra ISK to put up some bounties.

In other words, I can think of a couple players I would like to put up a good sized bounty on and I wouldn't be adverse to buy a plex or two to get the job done. I can't be the only one.

I am curious to what impact the new bounty system will have on plex prices. Will it drive the prices down with an increased supply of PLEX on the market? What does the community think?

Very few people I suspect are going to be rushing to buy PLEX to put up bounties any more than they'll buy it for AURUM. If they want to place a bounty on another player they'll probably just take it out of pocket.

Ok we'll unsure, but feel like you have gone down the same thought process as myself here and imagined that having a bounty on a podpilot means you can kill this person.

Incorrect

Bounty is the same after dec 4th as it is now with regards to collecting it. You cannot shoot this person in high sec unless they are -5

Confusion was the belief that kill rights were also part of the deal. Mostly due to no real attempt by me to investigate properly.

Kill rights and transfer of them, are a different thing. Way more interesting thing to be honest :-)

These are what I beileve you should be interested in. I am.
