Solution for unwanted bounties: join a Ganked roam (there is one this saturday), get popped & podded and make some null/lowseccer a bit richer in the process. Everybody wins!


Actually the best revenge is making sure your Bounty does not ever go away. That means you are winning.

For me the reason was being so inconsiderate as to say hello. I guess in EVE people get hit with the newspaper simply because other people are sadistic asshats who enjoy hiting people with a newspaper just for the sake of hitting them..

Seriously this is a game for cyber bullys, I hope CCP fails miserably.

You seem sad, and apparently there are five other people that are sad with you. That makes me sad.

Thankfully I have medication to make me happy.

I will send a personalized hatemail to everyone that places a bounty on me.

I will also add more butt hurt vitriol for each 100k amount up to one million at which point I will threaten to leave the game and possibly do myself bodily harm.

So what I'm reading is that you SHOULD put bounty on every new player you see? Alright, thanks for the tip.

I am still surprised at how low of a bounty "The Mittani" has on him. Then again, he never undocks anyway so it would be a waste.

Bounties for all! https://forums.eveonline.com/default.aspx?g=posts&m=2279821#post2279821

This morning i sent the following message to Dodixie local residents.
[16:29:24] Anonymous Fighter > OK, everyones name that starts with an "A" is getting a bounty.. if you dont want one.. get out :)

That should provide a new group of hate evemails for me to post :)

Had someone put a big bounty on me this morning, my first ever bounty! I felt so proud I almost sent him a mail to thank him for making me feel wanted. Dunno why people would rage over such a thing though, like, if you have a bounty and someone manages to claim some of it, then props to the guy for catching you off-guard, y'know?

That's great, but you only win if you are not caught.

Bounties: Now with extra 'working as intended'!!!

Since the cessation of their usefulness is imminent, may I appropriate your belongings?
