For those of you who want bounties to be placable only on people with low sec statuses, I'd like to present a short list of things that I regularly do that people would want to place bounties on my for but don't effect my sec status:
-I join corps in order to kill members of that corp -I go into peoples missions and steal their loot -I sit around as a suspect and try to convince people to kill me -I bump peoples ships so they cannot obtain their objectives -If I see someone putting up or taking down a POS I'll land on it while something is unanchored in space and steal them -I put up margin scams -I offer services that I never deliver on, stealing someone's money in the process -I wardec corps and alliances
All of these thing I can do without effecting my sec status at all. In fact, several of my fellow Skunks have positive sec statuses.
In your view, are these not valid reasons to put a bounty on me? Are they only valid if I've also done some suicide ganking in my time?
More importantly than that, why do you feel that you're a "good guy" because you've shot a couple plusses here and there? And why do you feel the game needs to favor "good guys"? Founding member of the Belligerent Undesirables movement. |

This all begs the question, though, why people seem to feel that not interefering with others gameplay in a direct way should be considered morally right, or "good", and why being "good" should be a protected game style.
It's a bit like going into a game of Team Fortress 2 and not shooting anyone and saying that you should also be immune to being shot because of it. Founding member of the Belligerent Undesirables movement. |

To follow that along, should no space get invaded if the owners of it acquired it through peaceful means? Should nobody's orders ever get undercut?
Should nobody ever initiate an action against another player in any way? If so, what do you propose the end state of this should be?
Or should only certain motivations allowed in order to take an action? Should wars only exist so that carebear corps can clear off the abandoned POSs of other carebear corps? Founding member of the Belligerent Undesirables movement. |

Paying someone to do something is doing something.
But yes, exactly. EvE does not (or at least claims not to) value one morality over another, and I don't see why they should start with who you're allowed to place bounties on or for what reason. Founding member of the Belligerent Undesirables movement. |
