As a total carebear who likes mining and making things who, up until last week was about to give up on this game because I felt that I would never be able to get revenge against all those who have wronged me (check my kill board, there is been a few).
I took a good look into this and rubbed my dirty miners hands together.
At last a way I can get my own back.
So today I sold my kill rights, all of them, and a few hours after doing so, a notification popped up saying a kill right had been completed.
I checked the kill boards.
My loss, 50m, their loss, 58m.
Victory.
Shortly after members of the pirate corp, threatened to come and find me and kill me. My simple reply, I have deep pockets, for every kill you make on me: I will add as a bounty on your corp, every kill right: I will sell.
I cant fight you, but others can and you will have to lose 5 x my loss for wronging me.
I swear, I could almost taste the pirate tears... Or is that carebear tears?
Now I understand why all them pirates for all these years complained so loudly as soon as there was any threat to their power. It was now time for them to feel like victims.
I have not once, in all of my game time in eve, felt like I had actually "won". I felt like the beaten up bottom of the pile pesant that gets kicked around all fhe time. I didnt make this kill, but it felt like I did and it felt good.
So much so I sent the people on the kill mail a thankyou email and some extra ISK with encouragement to keep up the good work.
Oh revenge is so sweet.
Thank you CCP for allowing carebears to encourage the pew pew in others. |

So has begun the age of the bounty hunters. Legions of professional killers will now roam all corners of Empire space to complete their contracts and at the same time, satisfy someone else's thirst for vengeance. |

Sometimes you are the assassins and sometimes you are the shady business person who hires them.
My first victory was when a Friend was can tipped. I was coming to say hello to her in a 100mn Hurricane when a Tristan was Harassing her. Damn it that's my my job! Guy called me a coward for running off after I locked him.
I came back.
Yes it was sweet. |

Meh, miners / pirates = cats / dogs.
Can't live together, but in the world of eve still need each other.
Even so, at least I now know, with every gank I suffer, I can still post up them kill rights, and the great circle of eve can continue. |

Fantastic new feature.
I'd like to point out to the (3) freighter pilots that I ganked last weekend in high sec that this is an option now available to them, I can be found in the Molden Heath area typically from 06.00 til down time most days.

See, this is the kind of attitude that we've been trying to encourage all along. Instead of sitting and crying about it fight back, with whatever kind of weapons you can use, and you earn if not respect at least a reputation as a guy not to mess with unless you think you can deal with the consequences.
Stuff like this is what the kill right changes were supposed to encourage and I'm happy it actually seems to be working out as planned.

Totally agree, I'm really happy to see this mechanic now in play, as indi types, we don't have weapons to use as such, but this new system allows us to use other people's weapons.
It gives us some power to cause harm back, it's not the lowsec nerf or highsec buff people have been crying for, it's a system that allows the core game mechanic of Eve the PvP, to expand, it levels the playing field.
It's a really inventive solution and I like it. |

You sound very angry, why? I think you can train for pew pew too, like the rest of us.
Keep adding bounties because probably you are making the ganker to feel good. I ganked a miner today, and when i received the Concord mail i felt so happy after reading it.
I'm a new player, and that was my first bounty. It's only 1 million, but it encourages me to keep doing it. |

I know how the new bounties work, and i'm not worried at all. Should i be scared of undocking? Why? Probably you would, but that's is a carebear way of thinking that i won't follow.
Keep manufacturing junk, fighting rocks or whatever you do and have a nice day.

Thank you for the good read.. yes.. now us non-psypathic killers, who prefer a different playstyle than living hand to mouth, and not spending all day blowing stuff up, but instead building stuff and working the economy have the power to kill.
Yes, industrial carebears might be easy 'targets', but they have deep pockets, and when trouble comes, bounties will be posted, and payback will be a *****.. I have a little list of people that I have a pet peeve against for messing with me.. and they will feel the power of my wallet.

I ganked a hauler carrying over a billion ISK worth of stuff today. He raged at me in a chat, and then put a 500 million bounty on my head. I used an alt and a clever selection of items to inflate the value of my insured ship thousands of percent beyond its actual worth, and then collected that bounty at the cost of maybe a tenth of the profit. Then I mailed the gankee a link to the video that I took of what I described above, so he knew that his money was well spent. He cursed me out, said "**** this game," and logged off. Haven't seen him since.

Moral of the story being that the guy put too small a bounty on you.

Same thing happened to me, although a bit less dramatically.

I will double my efforts and plan to suicidekill in a Vindicator. I would although require a little deposit of ISK to cover my expenses. You will get it back with interest of course. Two billion ISK may just be sufficient for starters.

I cant fight you, but others can and you will have to lose 5 x my loss for wronging me.
I swear, I could almost taste the pirate tears... Or is that carebear tears?
Now I understand why all them pirates for all these years complained so loudly as soon as there was any threat to their power. It was now time for them to feel like victims.
I have not once, in all of my game time in eve, felt like I had actually "won". I felt like the beaten up bottom of the pile pesant that gets kicked around all fhe time. I didnt make this kill, but it felt like I did and it felt good.
So much so I sent the people on the kill mail a thankyou email and some extra ISK with encouragement to keep up the good work.
Oh revenge is so sweet.
Thank you CCP for allowing carebears to encourage the pew pew in others. Hum, your story sounds vaguely familiar to one that happened earlier today for my corp. Was it us? If so ill get that kill mail posted.
Your corp, no, alliance, not sure. |

Please do this CCP.
We talked about this at the game design morning meeting today. I'm not sure we'll do it, but it's definitely in the back of our heads. Personally, I'd love to have it in :) It's like an actual, meanginful, neg rep button 
Anyway, thanks for sharing your story OP, that's exactly what the system was built for. |

So that's what a victory in this game feels like! Please provide proof for this because if it's true it's a major flaw in the game.
Since you get only 20% of the assumed worth of the destroyed ship in bounty, you'd need to kill yourself in a ship the game thinks is worth 2.5 billion ISK.
You said that the actual price of your ship was only a tenth of the profit, so you are claiming that you paid 50 million ISK for a ship that the game lists as being worth 2.5b ISK.
Yes, I would indeed like to see proof for this. You have already made a video of it, so please share the link? . |

I'll take this as confirmation that the devs are officially considering this. You might as well implement it - it's not like people who don't like what you have to say aren't placing bounties on people already. This happened to me earlier - might as well just make it a button push in the forums so they don't have to switch to the client. You don't scare me. I've been to Jita. |

I have been given more opportunities to kill within my home, lowsec. I have been given more opportunities to use more ships in more places. AND this update is going to convince PVP noobs to chase after me for my bounty and then hand me free killmails. So, miner, I'm not really sure what you're so happy about.

I for one am happy the new system works. Sure it may not have changed a whole lot for some people(low-sec dwellers) but at least it's getting a positive response. This is one of those things that could potentially lower the bar for new players, which we all know can sometimes be daunting.
Also, with me now engaged in WH life I can't really be bothered to go hunt down all those gate camping people that GF'd me 10 to 1 in K-Space. So now I get to sell all my old killrights and let someone else have the thrill of the pew.
The system is generating PvP(something I thought all low/null pilots said needs to be more of a focus with less safety and carebearing) where it normally wouldn't have been. Now instead of killrights running up due to timers, they can just be passed off to someone else. |

Stuff like this is what the kill right changes were supposed to encourage and I'm happy it actually seems to be working out as planned.
True enuff but other than learning how to PVP and hoping you get lucky there was no way for people with more money than skills to exact revenge. While there may be exploitable flaws, at least now you don't have to rely on your own personal ability to deliver firepower on your target, a fat wallet and the willingness to use it now serve as a legitimate equalizer |

What does CCP think about a group of suicide gankers aggroing each others just before they gank some 3rd party victim to collect bounties placed on them by the somebody like the original poster in good faith? If Concord or other NPC's kill your ship and there is any human aggro involved, the human gets the final blow even without firing a shot. Would action like this be "works as intended" or would be more like "exploiting the fundamentals of the bounty system"? |

The core of the new bounty system is to pay out only a portion of the bounty at a time, instead of paying the whole pool upon a kill. Here are the pertinent points (with the usual disclaimer that things are subject to change as we continue developing this):
GÇóThe amount paid out from the bounty pool upon a kill is now based on the ISK loss inflicted on the target. This is similar to the system used in FW for calculating LP payout, i.e. finding a Total Loss value based on the value of items lost (plus some insurance calculation finagling). WeGÇÖre making this system a bit more robust and harder to manipulate, but weGÇÖre not telling you how ;) GÇóThe bounty payout is based on a percentage of the Total Loss, so the bounty received will always be considerably less than the actual Total Loss value. The base number weGÇÖre going for right now is 20%. This means that if you blow something up worth 100 million, then 20 million is paid out in bounty (or whatever is left in the bounty pool if less than 20 million). GÇóThis also means that the bounty pool of a player will be paid out over time, so a player with a high bounty can be killed numerous times before the pool depletes. GÇóCurrently, bounties are only claimed on podding. We want to extend this to ship destruction as well. This means that if you destroy someoneGÇÖs ship and then pod him, you get bounty twice (the podding bounty is then based on the value of any implants the target has). GÇóBounties are public, same as now. This means anyone can claim a bounty. Claiming a bounty is based on Final Blow. If youGÇÖre in a fleet and get bounty, the bounty is shared between the fleet members. GÇóBounties can now be placed from anywhere in the game, not just the Bounty Office in stations. Bounties on the same character go into a joint pool, same as now. The minimum ISK amount for placing a bounty is increased from 5k to 100k. Also, bounties can now be placed on anyone, weGÇÖre removing the -1 security standing requirement currently in the bounty system. GÇóYou can track bounties youGÇÖve placed on other players, seeing how much has been paid out. YouGÇÖre also notified if a player youGÇÖve placed a bounty on is killed. GÇóBounty pools are eliminated and a portion returned to those that contributed to the pool if the target has been inactive (unsubscribed) for a long time. GÇóWeGÇÖll redo the Most Wanted list to make it cooler and more useful. The characters with the top bounties on them will be ranked, with the rank giving a bonus to the payout percentage for killing them. This means high-rank characters are potentially juicier targets. GÇóWe will add a Bounty Hunter rank list as well. Characters gain rank points on this list for scoring big bounties and hitting characters high on the Most Wanted list. For the time being the Bounty Hunter rank list will be purely for epeen purposes. GÇóWeGÇÖre aiming to continue to use the Billboards and CQs to show Most Wanted status. GÇóBounties have no effect on who can be attacked legally where. GÇóImportant note: Existing bounties in the old (current) bounty system will be removed when the new system rolls out in December. This means that bounties that have not been claimed by that time will be gone for good.
There I highlighted it for you... others have already called you out for making stuff up and putting your KM (and video) where your mouth is. Still... nice story... even when it is as made-up as the Easter-Jovian. |

Ahhhh... finally things more like the real world- well except for the fact you can never do anything more than inconvenience a Pirate, but... maybe that's enough. Better than having no recourse other than playing THEIR game you aren't any good at anyway.

The ability to post bounties directly from disliked forum posts is a good idea in theory but it will fail in implementation.
Everyone posting on their main has a pair and won't care about the bounty.
Everyone posting on an alt (like this character for instance) is, to be fair, a huge coward and won't ever undock in that character anyway. So they won't care about the bounty either.
Everyone else is fairly sane and as such won't be affected because they aren't posting garbage.
So in the end, no one will really care and much isk will be wasted for nothing. Which means it has a good shot of being implemented quickly. |

I really do think this is the key to this whole system, I am still just as much a target as I was before, pirates can still gank me, and they can still gate camp me. It really balances the playing field.

At last a way I can get my own back.
So today I sold my kill rights, all of them, and a few hours after doing so, a notification popped up saying a kill right had been completed.
I checked the kill boards.
My loss, 50m, their loss, 58m.
Victory.
Shortly after members of the pirate corp, threatened to come and find me and kill me. My simple reply, I have deep pockets, for every kill you make on me: I will add as a bounty on your corp, every kill right: I will sell.
I cant fight you, but others can and you will have to lose 5 x my loss for wronging me.
I swear, I could almost taste the pirate tears... Or is that carebear tears?
Now I understand why all them pirates for all these years complained so loudly as soon as there was any threat to their power. It was now time for them to feel like victims.
I have not once, in all of my game time in eve, felt like I had actually "won". I felt like the beaten up bottom of the pile pesant that gets kicked around all fhe time. I didnt make this kill, but it felt like I did and it felt good.
So much so I sent the people on the kill mail a thankyou email and some extra ISK with encouragement to keep up the good work.
Oh revenge is so sweet.
Thank you CCP for allowing carebears to encourage the pew pew in others.
Great Post +1. Pirate tears far greater than carebear tears.
The new bounty/killright system may not be perfect but it's so so so much better than the old way. Yay CCP. I plan on living forever.......so far, so good. |

The OP is exactly why there is no need for the hand of god that is CONCORD.
Players now have the means to enact consequence, in this great player driven game.

I haven't had time to play with the new expansion much, so I don't know much about the new bounty system. I know how to sell kill rights, but how do you buy them? I was just thinking the other day that the new system would be useless if the bounty is hiding in hisec, but killright trading sounds like the perfect solution, and I'd like to get in on this. |

You'll never learn to pvp with that attitude. You don't need a lot of isk to pvp. Nor do you need a lot of skill points. You just need to get in a frigate and head out to LS, or FW. Starting to pvp in pricey ships is very bad idea. Learn to pvp in a cheap frigate and move up to a battlecruiser. If you've never pvped in a frigate it's difficult to counter them.
PS- On the other hand there is nothing wrong with sucking at pvp like me. Other than my pvp/fw alt my killboard is near bare, and my alt isn't exactly net positive. I know my skill set. I'm a good scout, good bait, good HIC pilot and fairly good logi. I'm also really good at running away, and breaking wormhole/POS camps. Currently I'm in LS plexing and doing PI. |

I've been playing since 2003, Eve has no end game. That's the true beauty of it. You are always learning. Go grab a 12 pack of frigates and go get them blown up. The longer you wait, the less likely it is that you'll ever PVP and learn what Eve is really about.

Pirates are there for the money and to make people cry. It is just like how it was in rl, a pirate, back in the sale and cannon era, would never attack a heavily armed vesale. They went after the traders, everything was about making the most money for the least risk.
It is the same in eve. So you cant be surprised when they run from fair fights or a fight they might lose...

This guy get's it. Couldn't have said that better myself.
On behalf of Amamake's finest, we come for the fight. Glad you've felt victory, but you haven't tasted the adrenaline we have.
I'm not talking about some roleplay yo-ho thing.
Literally, the adrenaline rush of that first fight, knowing the ship you built and travel with is in the balance, hoping you're smarter than the guy at the end of your guns. OP, that's what you're missing out on.

Ha, just as I was making my adrenaline post.
Well, I guess that's how united was/is (they've always been very campy and averse to fighting)
...so speak for yourselves. Heretics legacy was started with low-sec frigate good-fighting, and camping is just fun in it's own hilarious right, but...well it probably comes down to the difference between Rancer and Amamake, and that is that the former is merely an artery of traffic while Amamake's III - 1 see's more fights than, I bet, 99% of celestials in eve http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6070/6122338654_85e9bbfca9_z.jpg |

Hey CCP, your bias is showing.
Look, if you want to get taken seriously, then put out some statistics regarding the amount of kill rights that get activated, versus the amount that actually get claimed. Include the average price for both. I have a feeling that you'll be unpleasantly surprised.
This system is, and always will be, an overhyped cop-out that will only be used for scamming. I don't get why you guys insist on "griefer tears" here. The griefers aren't dumb enough to expose themselves to unnecessary risk. They will gank with alts, they will steal when they're prepared, and they'll manipulate others into wasting their money to rid themselves of kill right vulnerability if they screw up either of those two things.
This system is bad not because it's making the belligerent undesirables cry; it's bad because it isn't doing that very thing.
Also, what's up with all those carebear claims of power through riches? The majority of bears have net worths that are less than one of my mid-tier pvp HACs. A carebear mines desperately to make enough for his next PLEX, and I have a literal stack of almost-identical T3s because I'm too lazy to change modules for minor fit variations. And although that is true in my case, when I say "I," I mean it in a general sense. Pirates, griefers, and other belligerent undesirables have a lot of money. That's what affords them their lifestyle. They certainly have more than the nine-to-five pseudo-industrialists who push Drakes on the Jita market for five-figure margins.

At last a way I can get my own back.
So today I sold my kill rights, all of them, and a few hours after doing so, a notification popped up saying a kill right had been completed.
I checked the kill boards.
My loss, 50m, their loss, 58m.
Victory.
Shortly after members of the pirate corp, threatened to come and find me and kill me. My simple reply, I have deep pockets, for every kill you make on me: I will add as a bounty on your corp, every kill right: I will sell.
I cant fight you, but others can and you will have to lose 5 x my loss for wronging me.
I swear, I could almost taste the pirate tears... Or is that carebear tears?
Now I understand why all them pirates for all these years complained so loudly as soon as there was any threat to their power. It was now time for them to feel like victims.
I have not once, in all of my game time in eve, felt like I had actually "won". I felt like the beaten up bottom of the pile pesant that gets kicked around all fhe time. I didnt make this kill, but it felt like I did and it felt good.
So much so I sent the people on the kill mail a thankyou email and some extra ISK with encouragement to keep up the good work.
Oh revenge is so sweet.

Not exactly ... since the pirate has to buy a new ship he keeps the cash flowing into your pocket and thereby finance his own bounty :) THAT is the true joke of it all :)

Personally, I'd love to have it in :) It's like an actual, meanginful, neg rep button  Anyway, thanks for sharing your story OP, that's exactly what the system was built for.
The idea would only promote alt posting, which is the last thing the Eve forums need.

And before you start QQing about the OP again all he said was how using the system made him feel, you're the one who starting throwng numbers around.

Recently had some nice revenge taken for me as well.
I lost an Abaddon during a POS defence a couple of weeks ago, still having the Kill Rights on those involved I figured I would set them up for 2.5mil each and let people claim them if they wanted.
Well today I got a CONCORD notification saying they had been claimed, and went to check EVE Kill to see what happened. I was expecting an alt killing him in a shuttle or some such but I was quite happy with what I saw.

I took a good look into this and rubbed my dirty miners hands together.
At last a way I can get my own back.
So today I sold my kill rights, all of them, and a few hours after doing so, a notification popped up saying a kill right had been completed.
I checked the kill boards.
My loss, 50m, their loss, 58m.
Victory.
Shortly after members of the pirate corp, threatened to come and find me and kill me. My simple reply, I have deep pockets, for every kill you make on me: I will add as a bounty on your corp, every kill right: I will sell.
I cant fight you, but others can and you will have to lose 5 x my loss for wronging me.
I swear, I could almost taste the pirate tears... Or is that carebear tears?
Now I understand why all them pirates for all these years complained so loudly as soon as there was any threat to their power. It was now time for them to feel like victims.
I have not once, in all of my game time in eve, felt like I had actually "won". I felt like the beaten up bottom of the pile pesant that gets kicked around all fhe time. I didnt make this kill, but it felt like I did and it felt good.
So much so I sent the people on the kill mail a thankyou email and some extra ISK with encouragement to keep up the good work.
Oh revenge is so sweet.
Thank you CCP for allowing carebears to encourage the pew pew in others.
I like you, you're a cool dude. I'm going to send you some isk when I log in next. It's about time CCP stops catering to the lazy players with this sense of entitlement for fear of losing money. These aren't the people making the game better, these are the people wanting you to turn EVE in to a game that is like most other MMO's. |

Idiot = someone who doesn't do the same things I do 
Doesn't matter if they would have been killed anyway - guess just the notification that the guy was killed satisfies the feeling of revenge. And maybe the killright increased the effort to hunt that guy, who knows?

I think the icing on the cake is the ability to give away or sell your kill-rights to either individuals, corporations, alliances or everyone out there in the Eve Universe.
A lot of players have alts on Eve, including PvP characters and Miners/Industrialists. Sometimes I enjoy sitting back and mining out there on my own with my industrial alts because it is the part of the game I prefer, profiteering from the markets by buying cheap and selling at higher prices, or mining and selling minerals and so forth.
Much like there are regular miners to be seen in certain systems, there are regular suicide gankers who enjoy attacking industrialists for various reasons. Not being able to do anything on your mining character gets frustrating. But if you have pvp alts, you now have the ability to sell the kill rights to that alt and can use it to your advantage. Following that ganker around, watching his every move like a stalker. And one day, when that ganker just so happens to be in some nice tech II ship worth a cent, you have the ability to attack that character by activating kill rights and not be bothered by concord for it.
Putting a bounty on a character as well as giving away your kill rights at no cost to 'everyone' is also really cool, because now that person is a wanted pilot where all those around in high-sec can get a free kill with no retaliation from concord and make some ISK for it.
Now who's the carebear docking in station waiting out the timers in high sec? |

Instead of a 'dislike' button, allow us to set bounties on bad posts.
Thanks! :)
That could lead to some interesting situations.  I'll take this as confirmation that the devs are officially considering this. You might as well implement it - it's not like people who don't like what you have to say aren't placing bounties on people already. This happened to me earlier - might as well just make it a button push in the forums so they don't have to switch to the client.
Forum PVP. I like to lick things.

i am stupid, i dont understand the transferable killrights thingy 
if someone is orange to say they have a killright available do you just shoot them? Do you have to contact the owner of the killright to buy it?

You can't see available killrights from the overview (at least not yet). If someone is flashing yellow to you, they are a suspect and you can shoot. It might or might not have anything to do with a kill right.
To check if a player has a killright available, click on their ship on overview. If they have a killright available, there will be a target symbol in the selected item window. Click that and select "activate killright". The target will now flash yellow and you can shoot.

AFAIK it works like this.
If they have a kill right available there will be a little button marked with a plus sign in the bottom right of the part of the overview where all the buttons for orbiting/warping etc are, click that and you get a list of available killrights and the price of each one (if it has one). Pick a killright, pay the isk and fire away. |
