When you post a bounty on a Corporation/Alliance, do you receive notifications of bounty payouts?
Can't seem to find anything in Dev blogs about it, I know you get them for individuals.

I am not, nor will I ever be...Nicky Yo.... The question you should ask is.....When will they release the NICKY!

Yes, you do.
''Pilots can track bounties they have placed on others, and they will be notified if someone on their bounty list has been killed. After all, news that your adversary is paying for the errors of their ways is half the fun of retribution.'' The full text can be found here.

Bounties placed on Corporations/Alliances pay out on the destruction of individual pilot ships, so you will still get the notification.
You will even get notifications on the destruction of Corporation owned structures in space.

Either the devil is an EVE player that had an active account on the 13th or NickyYo just made a sensible post.

Thank you for the prompt response. Apparently the Bounty system is broken.....What?

I dropped 500 mil on Test Alliance last week, It shows in the bounty office.
Less that 24 hours later I checked, Test showed no bounty.....I have no notifications.

File a bug report! GD is not a place to post bugs, since "browse the forums" is not part of any regular development or bugfixing process.

Bounties are becoming so worthless now. Everyone has one.

CCP should raise the minimal amount from 100k to 10M. Having a wanted sign should be meaningful. Not because someone thought it would be funny to 100k everyone currently in local.

Well, that would be fine, but in this case, I have not received a single notification of any damage done to the Alliance.
I did petition it, but from past experience, I have to wonder if the LOGS even exist...Since they always seem to show nothing. Shocked

I dropped a 200m bounty on a pirate corp and a few days later the bounty was gone but 0 msgs were received. So bountying corporations seems to be a waste atm. Is there a bug where corp bounties are getting exploited?

Only possibility I can see is that they are removing stuff from space, (i.e: taking down POS'), and the bounty is getting removed in the process but with no kill, there is no message.

What?

A little far-fetched, but it's a remote possibility, maybe.

Really, you need a full wallet to 100k all 1800 people in jita? I have ships that cost more then that.

Nah, only carebears have them. Those of us who fight don't have bounties for very long. So take note - it's the guy with no bounty you have to look out for...

Pirates may rotate through bounties quicker, but that doesn't mean they will not have bounties placed against them again.

this is by design.

My team felt it would be too spammy to send notifications each time someone in an alliance you placed bounty on is killed. We want to find a way to pool these notifications together and then we might add that in!
