[quote=Cannibal Kane]Yep.. because earning 20% of his total loss everytime he loses his ship is what I strife for. Unless he flies a ship worth a Billion or more it is really not worth it.

Why people waste their ISK putting a bounty on people is beyond me. See you soon.

Well, it's not just his ship... Still, you can run around low-sec pvping just for the crap their hulls drop, or you can earn money doing it. You can earn money by pvping warlock brigade. He was flying a drake, with fitting that could spell a fair profit for 5-10 min work. Or you can just go back to mining, whatever you like to do - free money for kills is free money for kills. I'm certainly not going to place more than a billion for them ganking my 60 mil load. Usually I'd ignore it, but it's just not nice to ambush your customers.

The way I look at it is, 1,000,000,000 at a 20% payout means them ganking my little industrial just cost them 5,000,000,000 ISK in hulls and fittings - a small price to pay for business ethics.

I mean, we have this nasty, unrighteous Gallente in Amarr space ambushing innocent industrialists and nobody cares to set them back on the staight and narrow path towards honest work? How sad.

*munches popcorn*

Or you could have spent that billion hiring Kane and watching them suffer, suffer as no-one has suffered before..:)

Much better than wasting it on a bounty.

Don't know who Kane is otherwise I may have done so.


Regardless, they've 2 POS's I found...

I mean, is the bounty system so broke that you can tell people exactly where the corp hangs out in low sec and they're still not worth hunting? Oh well, at least I get a little mail everytime someone gets popped from the corp. For a high stakes PvP game, people really don't seem that into the PvP... There are people that run around fighting in this game right? I swear they exist somewhere.

Still, market ambushes are no fun and at least one group who does it has a bit more to make traders wary.

The bounty system had always been broken. Putting bounties on people has only ever been a reward for the person that has the bounty placed on them. Originally they could take the isk via an alt and their victim and given them a free gift. Now it is a source of pride as how large your bounty is.
I too have heard reports that Mr Kane provides excellant value for money and goes above and beyond at performing his terrorist duties. I just wish i could find where he writes the stories that he used to gift to the pirate thread.

There is a bounty exploit at the moment but the GMs are aware of it. Don't do it.

Other than that, being bountied is generally detrimental.

Next time, however, consider hiring Kane, or hire someone to AWOX your mark.

I don't know what "AWOX" means, but I'll look into it.

Yeah, first of all, "market ambushes" are NOT a "thing". Stop saying that.

Repeating his POS locations in C&P will not lead to their destruction. Stop posting them.

Posting a bounty on someone will not lead to their death, in most cases. You are correct that "ambushing your customers is not nice." Eve is not nice. While you may have been able to hire someone for that billion ISK, you did not, because you acted before you understood how things worked. Much like when you jumped into low sec looking for a bargain. Less assumptions and more research will save you a lot of ISK and a lot of heartache. The only thing your thread has accomplished is to let every shark in the game know you have tons of disposable income and no idea how to play this game. The next few months may be very trying for you. I wish you the best of luck surviving them.

#4. awoxing will do you "NO" good, corp's "invite only", XD

Well......he could bribe one of your corpies (via Chribba, obviously) to go on an AWOXING spree for a billion ISK.

Or just dump a billion ISK into a bounty pool (again, via Chribba) and pay out, say, 50-100 million ISK per kill to anybody depending on the ship/pod destroyed.

But just better to hire Kane, or Break-A-Wish (when they aren't on vacation) if you really want to spend that sort of money.

Faster results, too.

you mad bro?

Flying through lowsec in a hauler without a scout is what got you killed. Any market transactions were coincidental. But by all means, please spend as much isk as you want to make you feel better about your mistake. Now everyone knows what a juicy target you are.

EDIT: For some clarification, he took a shortcut through two lowsec systems to buy something in high sec, and his ship was popped on his way back through lowsec. He could have easily taken a longer high sec route.

you pretty much paid 1 bil for this lesson

If you really want a fun time, try fitting a bunch of reinforced bulkheads, a DCII, and a cyno, then go into low and light it if you get attacked. You'll probably lose your ship anyway, but you can imagine the pirate com channel.
