I have to think about this one here.
Are you saying it is OoRP for me to ignore a metagamer or OoRP for me to have any opinion of it in the first place?

I would be very interested to hear an official response from the Black Dragon Society and the AFA.

There is an extremely large number of targets on this list. What I suggest is that if you'd like to hire people who were not previously on the contractor list for the Samura boards, you should put them on a trial period where they only have limited engagement rights. Only pirates would be a good thing to put people on trial for.
In that same light, if you want to put people on a trial for that kind of thing, adding Junkers, Liberty Rogues, Lane Hackers, and Mollys, might be a good move. I would think they would be added to the list of bountied before the shipping companies, to be honest. Naturally, foreign criminals should count less towards the trial and local criminals should be worth more. Also, adapting a zoning policy like the Kusari Lawful Bounties would help with this kind of thing as well.
Then again, that kind of trial period is what I would really expect for such a license to kill almost half of Sirius in a sixth of the space. You wanna make sure no one sells the information on who is paying for the attacks on your targets to those targets, right?
Hope that helps.

That indeed is very helpful insight, thankyou.

' Wrote:+100% bonus means someone will be paid double the normal amount for killing one of the specified targets.
Just a quick confirmation this is the case?

' Wrote:Just a quick confirmation this is the case?Sorry about not answering this before, yes it just means add 100% of the base price to get the total for your kill/interdiction.

' Wrote:Edit: And Ryoken, Samura is not stupid, they use the Hogosha and Farmers Alliance to do their dirty work while they stay clean, which means that in RP, Samura will obviously make sure that they are not connected to any killings, so if you just randomly start shooting up Samura ships, you're metagaming, and in breech of RP rules.
The bounty is posted by samura, not by Hogosha or Farmers Alliance. If that should be an under-the-table deal, why don't you pay them under the table?
If Samura posts a large bounty on the official bounty board, it is of course 'connected to any killings'.
Why the heck would it be metagaming to know about that in RP?

I guess my first question would be, how did you find out?

Just add "Sent" before word "to". Stupid metagaming attempts where someone thinks corporation would send war invitation openly to whole Sirius will be null and void.

Is it metagaming to read the bounty board?
