Maybe killrights should only be available to buy if you have hi-sec yourself.

This idea is a good one but needs to be expanded upon. At the moment there are a number of various flaws, as pointed out in a previous post.
As i see it kill-rights shouldn't be transferable as such, However they should work in the same sort of way as a courier mission. A Character gets poded by a pirate and gains the kill rights. He then sets up a Bounty mission. A bounty Hunter takes up the mission for a certain price (maybe a percentage of the reward, This could be refundable) This price should be per day for example to ensure quick delivery on kills (The money does not go back to the player who created the mission). This mission extends the kill-rights to the bounty hunter.
Now at the moment a major factor for pirates having it easy is that it is very very hard to track them down. Often a pirate will be on the move looking for targets. Therefore I feel that bounty hunters should be given tools to help them with their tracking. The most important of these being remote tracking agents. The higher you standings with a faction the better agents you have acess to. I feel to limit this however the agents should have a certain sphere of influence as it where. So a low level Amarr agent would only be able to give you information on locations within say the Region he is in, While a high level agent as well as being quicker at finding subjects would also cover a larger area.
The key to these changes is going to be balance. As if bounty hunters become over powered then it will get rid of pirates as a whole.
These idea's are just my thoughts on what could turn into a very interesting Profession in eve. And as a pirate meyself i'd look forward to these changes immensly. Mainly because it would make the pirate lifestyle a more interesting and dangerous part of the game.

Why not, but then you should be notified if someone's right to kill you has been transferred to another char.
King Liu is RIGHT!!

I like the idea. Although there must be, as suggested, a way to know who has the kill right. Mail notification upon transfer or anything.
It would really make bounty hunter a real proffesion.
Approve of this idea, I do.

Wanting the easy way out, I would like the mail notification. But, in retrospect it would be more of a challenge if I did not.
90% of the fun of being a pirate is knowing that everyone can attack you at anytime, transeferable killrights and killrights from 0.0 would add to this.
CCP please make piracey a dangerouse and difficult proffesion to remove all the noobs from it.

I dont see why people should be notified who has kill right on them. Thats the fun of piracy I thought, being an outlaw. Do you really need a big blinking sign saying "this guy might kill you". If so then Id suggest you are a pretty lousy pirate.
Definitely there should be no notification. Perhaps something on the overview and that is it. No logging off if the bounty hunters show up in local.

Just now an interesting idea crossed my mind in the bounty system direction. What if kill rights were tradeable and were actually something that could be completed sort of like a mission? The player that gets the kill right attaches some amount of money to it and then that money is put in escrow. As a player you could get the kill right from another players and exercise it and collect the reward attached to it.
Just an interesting random idea. 
NO! ITS TEH COMPELTY ****E!! DUMB AIDEA, EVERYONE WILL QUIT! YOUR CORP SUCKS!! YOURA NOOB TOO!
