I know there is some bad feelings about blanket bounties. - Lyderies - 06-29-2011
' Wrote:What happens? I don't see any Liberty corporations having bounties on Samura. I fly in Liberty as a Kishiro trader all the time and never have any issues.
The difference is our role play to other corporations, we are 'corrupt' in the sense that we hire our goons to take out competition to make us stronger, other corporations arnt as i say 'corrupt' in this sense, we pay for hogosha and the afa, we give them things for our benifit, if jason says im wrong then im wrong :P
correct me if im wrong

Excuse me but only an idiot would do something like this in real life, company(every company) can not survive alone, to bounty off all potential and current partners, thats suicide, not to mention the fact that those same companies will come after you with everything they got now, and dont fool yourself they will not find out, lets imagine this situation
BH:There is a bounty on your head, die.
Trader:Wait, how much you are being payed?
BH:1 Mil.
Trader:Ill triple it if you let me go and tell me who you are working for.
BH:Sure i am working for Samura.
Do you see my point, those are not exactly loyal troops you got there, they work for the highest bidder.

Sure but it is Hogosha/Farmers Alliance we are dealing with here not average mercs.
So anyone with those ID's have to act as the ID states, otherwise what is stopping my Dragon character sharing all the particulars of the GMG/Dragon alliance, their communications, base positions...
Moral fibre as a player is all we can count on to do what is right.
So no I don't think we have much to worry about from others finding out, we trust our people for a reason.
You have to make a choice whether you wan't to metagame this or not, if you do, we can't stop you, we will just ignore you as we try to do with any attempt to metagame here.

Its not open to the bounty hunters, and with the hogosha and afa, avengers rp, they wouldnt sell samura out, and to say they hate gaijins so they wouldnt take the money...
And samura owns a large part of kusaris holdings, its massive, it dosnt stop all trade into the house, and it still exports out
EDIT: Ninja'd

Hehe im biased rarrrr
Heavy rules enforcing chatty roleplay is there for a reason. Samura is basically paying 1M (lowest bounty by rules) for the sake of having these bounties. Which implies not some roleplay reasons but just showing off.
I once considering bountying Samura after IC's permission to get few Ryujins was denied but I decided not to do it for ooRP reasons.

The thing is that this will not stop all trade in Kusari, just make it a little harder and give Samura the edge.
You can't say a company would never do this, because Samura has been doing it for centuries.
I would rather we talk on any OoRP effect that this may take as the effect this has on players and balence of the mod is far more important than whether we should follow our own RP or not.

My other point still stands, you think that it is viable thing for Samura to try and stomp out competition like this but but it is not with the companies that cant be stomped out, what do you think those companies will do when they find out that Samura is bountiyng someone to take out their employes.

So IC would bounty samura?
And who says that there would be no role play? Id roleplay a bounty, how is it stopping roleplay?
also what does you GC example mean?
Read up about samura and u will see it is in roleplay

and how would they find out without metagaming?
its been happening for years inrp, and just ahs been made into the bounty board?

But yes I can understand your wanting to bounty Samura for that, it was a joint Kusari thing between Samura and Kishiro but yeah all good.
And if you had we would of had to ride with it and probably never find out who did it.
If this bounty get's too much, which I don't think it will, I will make corrections to make sure it stops being like that.
The zone is in Kusari and neighboring independant systems, not the "whole Sirius".
As I said before we are not doing this to make others lives harder, and if that does happen, it will stop.
And we are not doing this to show off, well any more than anything here is done to show off anyway.
