Just had a quick read, but its poor that you can place a bounty on ANYONE regardless of sec status ....

In terms how it will change my mining (when I can be ar**d to) It won't ....

Hisec miners are already quite used to being hunted and killed in hisec. I'm thinking bounties on miners will do nothing but make them feel like badasses.

No but it will make ganking profitable.

OH NOES.... Did I just say that out aloud?

Gank all the miners you want and have fun doing it, but don't come to the forums and whine, ***** and moan about how ship prices have doubled from what they are now, remember that the tears will go both ways.

I would never pay for a permit to anyone for any reason. Big smile What I would do is easy, I would grab a corp mate have him blow me up in a frig, see how much bounty he gets, and if it does not take long have him blow me up in that frig until it the bounty is gone. There will always be ways to help a corp mate here. Big smile So you see, even with this new twist, it will be easy to get the bounty down to 0. And the people putting the bounty get squat, so that would make me smile. Big smile

Ah come on, let's give self proclaimed kingpins and revolutionists like this James person their 5 seconds of fame... they know how futile their grand shemes are and how insignificant they ultimatly will be in a few months.

We will watch them pass and mine on... till the day we are all fed up with it... and on that day, EVE dies.

...how melodramatic... Blink

It would still be cheaper than what I used to pay.

I think there's ever such a minor discrepancy between who are whining about the ship prices, and who you think are whining about ship prices.

Well I would much rather waste a little time, then give the people putting the bounties up a smile. So no matter how long it would take, a corp mate would collect 100% of the bounty. I mean unfitted frigs will bring it down, and the cost so little, it would be worth it just to deny the bounty to a non corp mate. Big smile I would even take a loss to deny them a bounty. ISK is just digital currency and really has no meaning at all. Big smile

does having a bounty stop concord showing up? if it doesn't then i might have to dust off my skiff, or bother training for the siege warfare link on my alt, or both.

It's..kind of odd the way everyone seems to hate miners indiscriminately, regardless of the miner's attitude.
Why do you think this is?

Personally, I doubt I'll be affected. I work in a fairly quiet system, and rarely run into anyone else in the belts who's not another miner.
It might affect my ratting/salvage runs in a dessie though...if someone has KRs available too, I might just bounty boop 'em :)

This is not how the new system will work.

Anyone attempting to gank themselves would lose money, not make it. The only benefit to ganking oneself would be the chance to remove said bounty at your own leisure and to avoid losing any cargo that your ship may be carrying.

Or more importantly to buy a kill right then remove it from yourself when you're in a shuttle with your alt.

It will not stop concord from coming. So dust off the skiff.
