You know what would be a solution to this, the option to choose which wanted sign is used. Not it's removal, but a choice of maybe 3 or 4 styles.


Or make it scale from transparent to solid, depending on the amount of the bounty. It's really terribly big right now. Half my face is covered!

I think I'll make a post in the waste bin Features and Ideas forum about this then. Hope that someone takes notice.

Posted. Please make any suggestions you see fit.

This new bounty system is a temporary or permanent fix to the isk sink. Most people who get the bounties will probably never undock, will fly anything expensive or have quit eventually with a bounty of billions on their heads..



Why would we quit?

I am completely fine with placing bounties just out of random feelings of spite.


Yet...your NOT completely fine with us placing bounties on CCP's alliance and relative corps out of spitefulness correct? I mean wasn't this why it was barred in a recent patch?

LOL, no.

It was so that people wouldn't be wasting their money. Dev's would be at the top of the bounty listings with little or no way for anyone to do anything about it.

It would have caused no end of complaints.

Next time, think before you post nonsense like this.

Scale the font size logarithmicaly with the size of the total bounty; (eg: <1M = 6 point, <10M = 7 point, <100m = 8-point etc)

Decrease transparency with the number of bounties

Allow players to choose font style (eg: Old West Gothic, a 20s style Sans-Serif, a "future" console style... others?)

The last expansion was a fairly substantial buff to Mining Barges. Did you forget, or since it doesn't support your argument you're just not counting it?



Didn't you hear? All the miners are pissed off because their hulks got nerfed. Apparently.

Woo! CSM XI!
