Ok. I complained about bounties.
My bounty went from 100k to 25 Mil that night.
This is a research and manufacturing character, and hasn't been out of HiSec for maybe a year. She fliesr rookie ships.
What is the point?
Please, run it up. It's your ISK after all. |

I seen the powerball jump up like that once. Im dont like the lottery much though. A few months ago the home took us to the casino, they said we were gonna have ourselfs just the best time ever but they were quite mistaken. You see James, the guy down the hall, not James who works at the Home, had misplaced his dentures. Now why someone would take their teeth out at the casino is compleatly beyond me but thats James fer ya. Grandpa Bill |

Tears/fun/reactions/because we can/why not?
It's like a minigame for me. I try to make everyone I meet wanted, and "tag" them by making their bounty end in 170. This way I can easily identify people I've encountered before, as long as they don't get killed and lose their bounty. |

I don't much like it myself but EVE players aren't the nicest. The minimum bounty should be raised to at least stop it.... but then again, if they want to waste ISK like that.... Maturity, one discovers, has everything to do with the acceptance of not knowing. http://www.di.fm/spacemusic |

I strongly disagree there. Out of all the online game communities I've been in (I've played all kinds of multiplayer games), the EVE community has been the most well mannered and helpful in general. There are always exceptions, but off the top of my head I can't really think of any other game where I've had as many pleasant conversations with my victims or aggressors after a fight/encounter as I have in EVE.

I still think you should be able to "beat the bounty", they should expire after a suitable time. Somewhere in 30-90 day range. Some percentage goes back to the issuer. Don't make me hand you a wizard hat. |

Posting in a stealth "I hate bounties so increase my bounty because I really love bounties (and the attention)" thread. This thread has so much content it may be 'Thread of the Year' and it is only January.

You have every right to disagree but I don't know of any other game where scamming and griefing are legit "careers". It's frowned upon, if not outright prohibited, in most other games. Maturity, one discovers, has everything to do with the acceptance of not knowing. http://www.di.fm/spacemusic |

Consider this: The focus in EVE is a player driven experience. Players create and destroy ships and modules in an endless cycle. The PvE aspects are incredibly shallow and repetitive, so there has to be player made conflicts to keep things interesting. "Griefers" create such conflicts. Just because someone plays a villain role in a game, that doesn't make them a bad person.
I don't really know if I can defend scamming with the same argument, but at least it doesn't affect me since I'm not stupid or drunk enough to fall for scams when I play. (You should always read a contract thoroughly before signing/accepting it. This applies to real life as well.) |

bounties that go unclaimed after a month or so should be "moved up", and get applied to the whatever group the player is part of. all ways to the biggest instance. say, a player is a member of a corp within an alliance, then the bounty should go to the alliance.
that all that really needs to be changed. bounties are not a death sentence, its not a kill contract. its merely an incentive, or extra reward to whoever kills the bountie'd person and its s shame seeing it go to waste if that person never puts the bounty at risk of being claimed.
that said, eve needs kill contracts. |

The "move up "is an interesting idea. Don't make me hand you a wizard hat. |

How have ' they' won?
I do the same things I did last week, and last month. Progress has not been impeded.
'They' on the other hand, have ISK tied up in escrow. Or somewhere.
Why? Why not use it for something productive?

Well, I think I understand about 40% of Eve, but the majority of the players may as well be from Mars. |

I think some of you fundamentally missunderstand the bounty system. You see, if someone places a bounty on you it's like a declaration of love and care, the higher the prize the more people actually care about you, thus the true meaning of the wanted sign is to show you that the population of new Eden loves you. The funny thing is the higher it goes the more people 'want' to hang around you so you can easily make more friends. :3 |

Because it will result in thse kinds of fun whining threads about bounties. When a WoW player leaves to return to WoW, the avg. IQ of both games rises. Request to CCP: Please patch stupidity out of the game for Winter 2013. Professional Forum Thread locker. |
