A major part of my point is that "the consequences of such action" are so easily avoided by using a player service or and alt / burner pilot, that they shouldn't even bother to put it in the game. All it does is bite the ignorant in the butt. The addition of a pop-up telling the bounty placer that "the player you are placing a bounty on will be notified that you have placed a bounty on his or her head, are you sure you want to continue?" as Dawn DiDacyria suggested would at least prevent that issue.

BTW Organa, I can tell you play WoW or something too by your use of the term "Alt".
Mag's, by "Alt" she means one of your other characters/pilots on the same account. To my knowledge, the bounties are tied to pilot and not to account, so this "Alt" could have as many reciprocal bounties on him/her and not worry as long as you just used it in station only to place bounties for others. |

Mag's, by "Alt" she means one of your other characters/pilots on the same account... Alt has nothing to do with WoW, you need to finish highschool buddy cause "Alt" means alternate, which could mean alternate account, Alternate character, ectra.
Wow... THAT's what you take away from all this conversation?!? Troll much? (and I didn't even mention your high school spelling of et cetera (Latin for "and so on"), oh wait... I just did ;-)
I know what Alt is short for, I was trying to answer Mag's question, and I have a PhD... how about you? I made the observation because the term "Alt" is more prevalent in other games and not so much here. (some exceptions always apply) |

Actually, I think that is rather cool.
Cool?!?!?!?! That is frick'in brilliant! Get the bounties off corp-mates and supplement training exercise costs? Awesome! |

Warning/Notification is the crux of the issue, it seems. |
