No explanations as to why there's a "WANTED" sign on this toon are required.
If a criminal placed a public advertisement requesting that I be murdered and offered money for the accomplishment of that task, then I suspect that, at least a small number of people would be concerned -including local law enforcement types. Such behavior would not be acceptable in a civilized nation, state, or federation. So, I reject the bounty system as it is currently implemented.

Then I am at a complete loss. I don't understand your issue at all. I mean, if you're a new player and you didn't know this, it makes sense, but you don't sound new.

I'm fairly sure you don't want to make my ballot, though I never supported nor suggested immunity from others' actions.

Cool, in addition to biomassing your character you're also making a complete fool out of yourself :D
Your tolerance for disrespect is greater than mine. I'm not confident that the trait is admirable. Irregardless, I'm not so vested in this game to admit that my participation has been mostly a waste of time and not appreciated by CCP.

I'm still looking for the calendar date for the Party at the Top of the World. Should anyone find out, please let me know. Otherwise I'll be getting these bounties back to their owners earlier than originally planned.

Thank you and have a great day.

So when the time comes are you going to actually delete your character or are you going to be another Krixtal Icefluxor, hanging around, whining about things in highsec and threatening to quit, but never actually doing so?

You may look for this toon in-game after Fan Fest 2013. If you see or don't see me, there will be your answer.

Good luck to you with your CSM campaign.

I love how mad the high sec pubbies get when they have bounties.

I sit in jita on my price check alt and add 100k to random people, and the hate mail i receive is great.

WheatGrass is terminated.
Richard Fore, the alt, is also terminated.
I'm the last alt.

Characters of the 2nd account of WheatGrass have been added to the bio-mass queue.

---

Some of you don't get it or just can't read. The issue is not with bounties. It is with the defacing of public figures.

To those at CCP who made Eve Online a really great game, the last thoughts of WheatGrass were of appreciation. To those who decided to belittle customers with defacement, well, that's just sad.

---
As the final toon of WheatGrass, I may stick around until after fanfest but likely not later than May when this account expires.

---
To those who placed the generous bounties, I hope you get them back. If not, please create petitions. Best wishes to you.

Powered by Bacon is terminated -a toon on the second account of WheatGrass.
Hurtinator, an alt, is in the biomass queue.
I'm the primary toon of the second account.

---Edit
P.S. CSM votes were made from both accounts for the current election.
Good luck to you, CSM candidates.

I think it's very courageous of Wheatgrass to wait to give CCP gobs of RL money for FanFest before biomassing his character OR not biomassing his character and never being able to live down his public display of hysterics

He did, in fact, biomass his character. P


e: That said, a check of Evewho shows that none of the other five characters he mentioned are in Doomheim, so I'll have to go with Malcanis on this one, for now.

You need to read the lore.

The Amarr government would do this by church decree without batting an eye.

The Caldari megacorps do this as a matter of course - it's just business.

The Minmatar are so overrun by underground criminal elements and tribal concerns that no one will do anything about it unless it's a highly-placed government figure. Then they will declare blood feud, effectively placing a bounty on a whole other group.

The Gallente will pretend to be that way, but the Black Eagles are just a nicely-dressed hit squad.

New Eden is not a nice, "civilized" place.

But... But... Where's MY bounty? How come OP got to have all the fun! I'm going to bounty all of you next time I'm online just to teach you a lesson.

OP (or whatever alt), just out of curiosity do you have a problem with a bounty being put on someone who deserves it? And if not, who are you to judge that YOU did not deserve it? Maybe you annoyed a fellow miner by stealing his asteroid (or however mining works).

But best of all, "civilised nation"? That is the most hilarious description of EVE I have ever read.

Nickle-N-Dime, the last character of this player's first of two accounts, is in the biomass queue.
Rock Zappa, the last character of this player's second of two accounts is also in the queue. This is also the only toon left that I somewhat care about.

Now it's time to wait for CCP and fanfest to see if any humility, sanity, and decency still exist within the management of the company.

For clarification, I'm not attending fanfest -just waiting for it to happen to learn of any new developments.

I hope your day is nice.

Nickle-N-Dime is gone.
No toons remain on the initial account.
I'm all that's left on the last account -with less than five days remaining.

I hope you have fun at fanfest.

i know what you were trying to do dude but you're just not that important, sorry to be the one to tell you this but ccp are going to let you do as you say and lament your passing for about 10 seconds and move on. you cant change anything by killing yourself, ask the flaming monks. you thought your threat and ultimate death of your accounts would move ccp to change the bounty system. as you can see your dead and the bounty system has not changed
good luck playing wow
