Best way on these forums is to use an alt regardless of what you say, because they will hound you in-game. |

Not really strange.
If someone uses the forum frequently and has a differing opinion on how the game should be, then if they hound them in-game they stand a chance of driving them from the game and hence removing those other opinions from the forums.
Which is why it's always better to use an alt, then if you say something they don't want to hear you are not putting your main at risk. |

Well from experience I've had 2 characters hounded over the years because of the forums.
Why do you think some people say post with your main, because they really care who you are? No because they would know who your character is in-game so they can take action against it.
My point was that you are better posting with an alt so that if anyone wants to be petty over the forums they can't take it in-game. |

how can they exactly hound you? then hound them back, what's the problem? 
I nearly didn't answer this as you seem to have played for awhile and should be aware of how it could and was done.
Tracker agents
Watch-lists (now removed I believe) even with them gone it still can be done although if they don't log on often it would be a problem. Removing watch-lists was one of the better changes.
As for hounds them back, that's not even worth answering. |

Unless of course you like the cool [WANTED] sign on your portrait Doesn't work that way anymore. You would only get 20% of the value of ship destroyed taken from your bounty.
Bounty system is a waste of time anyway, if they want to hound you it wouldn't be the in-game bounty system they would use.
But doesn't really matter to me now as I'm not even really playing the game or any other game and as time goes by it's looking like it will remain that way.
But my advice would still be you're better off just using an alt to post, keeping the forum separate to the game. |

If you are in an NPC corp. with no bounty, you will more than likely get a small bounty placed on you, even if you just say 'Hi' in corp. chat.
I doubt they will give a bounty to those that are likely to lose that bounty. So really it's meant to target PvE players where that bounty can stay for a very long time. |

Well you're not in an NPC corp.
Typically those small bounties are aimed at NPC corps, where a player says something and those that place that type of bounty check to see what bounty they have, if they have a 0 bounty they then add a token bounty. If they have a token bounty already then they most likely won't get another.
