Someone who is bored, and with whom I did not interact. has placed a bounty on me. Is there anyway for me to find out who put the bounty on?

I suppose my opinion that there should be some limits on bounties - (like, some interaction? confrontation? fight? kill rights?) does not matter to anyone - I have only been playing for 4 years, after all. Absolutely do not like this new game feature.

But, I sure would like to know who put this stupid bounty on me - I would sure put a big enough bounty on him/her to get the bounty hunters' attention.

thanks

Go to your mail, then click the notifications tab, there is a group called bounties, look at that. This will detail bounties posted at an individual level, a corp level and an alliance level.

When the going gets tough the Gankers get their CSM rep to change mechanics in their favour.

I am sure whomever put a bounty on you did so because of your terrible posting skills.

I need more bounties placed on me so I can feel like I am a bad dude with a fearsome reputation. So OP, if you don't place a bounty on me when I log in I am going to place a bounty on you.Twisted

Woah, get mad that easily? Hate to see what you act like when someone blows up your ship. This question is relatively easy. Like I said in my post that you neglected to understand, I stated that I understand if you want to get an answer asap. However, I looked this question up myself, because I had the same thought, and I found it within 1-5m. The OP should try to at least do some research before coming to the forums, a few searches with the search engine of your choose. Because I guarantee you, if the OP did search this, he would have found the answer he was looking for.

I'm not saying DON'T post, but just do some research before you do.

He's right...

I was in Hek the other day and a player put bounties on so many people in system, he was the focal point of local chat for about 30 minutes. He must have spent millions just putting random bounties on random people...

There should be the requirement that in order to place a bounty a player must have popped your ship, flipped your can, messed with your corpies, or war-decced your corp/alliance.

Not the ability to just place bounties on people for sh1tz and giggles. Its such an annoying trend that this is probably the 5th thread I've seen on the subject so far.

The reason this bounty was justified was the reaction it caused.

There's nothing they can do about it. IMO the only way to fix this whole "bounty for ***** and giggles" Is to have bounties degrade over time. It would have to depend on the amount of the bounty as well, you can't expect people to put a 1 bil bounty on someone if it degrades ( idk 10%? ) a month for a flat rate on all bounties.

Something like this could possibly work:

0-100 mil bounties degrade to 0 over a month. few mil every day
100-500 mil bounties over 6 months. Few mil every week
500-1b+ over a year. These would only degrade a few mil every day? week? Someone do the math for me.

Once a say 550 mil bounty gets to 500 mil it decays more every time. Same for when it gets to 100 mil.

Now this is just a rough idea, nothing that was well thought out. But imo something should be done about the random bounties. I know a bounty doesn't really mean anything other than a reward for your killer, you can't be attacked in hi-sec or anything like that. It's just the fact that everyone will have a bounty on their heads.. it just seems silly.

I don't understand the problem with the bounty system, I think it is pretty great.

Yes a bounty should be able to be placed on anyone. It allows a small revenge for anything that annoys people, not limited to game actions that you want it limited to.

Besides, it is only a 20% bonus to the attackers over what they would have inflicted in terms of damage on you with whatever you are flying. The total pool doesn't really mean much aside for how many times that bonus can exist in your deaths. I got a 100k bounty on me, which would probably be good for a death or two in my rifter.

Is anyone really getting attacked frequently due to bounties anyway?
