Remove pointless, not well thought out, how can CCP be so dumb to not see how easy it can be exploited (but scam = ok) feature that does zero function to the game but line the pocket of the guy who was just killed. Only bounties I set are tiny annoying ammounts like 10k isk...not worth the cost of the clone from my pocket. Second, its hard to not fall for adding bounty to some annoying a-hat spamming local Roll. Third, stop pretending you are the next Bubba Fat, the life style of the bounty hounter doesn't exist (game is about racking up fake numbers and measuring manhood to see who has is bigger) since its so easy to be exploited as obvious by the post of the OP.

1) Placing a bounty on someone else will very very negatively impact your security standing
No. It didn't take long for your idea to implode in mess of bad ideas.

Also, I'd like to see the data you have to support that “a lot of other people” would like to see this. What you're describing is just a personal wardec system and while that is an interesting (read: laughably exploitable) idea, it has nothing to do with bounties.

There little to no reason to alter the bounty system at this point, as demonstrated by the fact that you haven't been able to articulate anything that's wrong with it.

I had a different take on a bounty hunting change.

TLDR of the thread so far: Guy suggests a horrible change, horrible change gets shot down by basically everyone, OP resorts to worn out meme trolls in an attempt to validate his idea somehow.
