IC supports Hessians and the Golden C.
That doens't mean we actually pay them to kill Rheinlanders and Samura/KNF.
Such...direct involvement is perhaps a tad over the line.
As for finding out... It's not as hard as one would think.

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.

Role play is two sided, if you are RPing something then you have to except RP consequences of your actions, which in this case means getting Samura chased around by half of Sirius.

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
If you would read about Interspace Commerce maybe you would understand why I mentioned GC.
And what word "imply" means. Since I haven't said there would be no roleplay.

Oh I know, it is dead easy.
The same as every secret in this game is, I could uncover all the factions hard work in about 10 minutes.
But you know what would happen then, everyone with a brain will be faced with the decision of should we all do this or ignore it completely.

Sure no problem, it is part of the game.
As long as people find out properly without metagaming I have no problem with it.

The problem is when "oh that's metagaming" is used as an excuse to ignore something. I've seen it happen multiple times with Das Wilde infected RM, or alliances that no one could hope to keep secret yet are mysteriously dismissed as wild rumor.
That's not neccessarily the case here, however, it would be ridiculously oorp to assume the Hogosha don't have a Kishiro spy or two within their ranks, seeing how they work for competitiors and all.
The open transmission to all Hogosha thus presents a problem.

Y'know, there is a difference between "following RP Lore" or "maintaining ingame balance". You sir, Are doing it wrong.

I'll just be selfish and pick IDF from that list. What possible reason do you have to want them dead all the time they visit kusari? They bring exotic gallic stuff, which you want. Why shoot them?

This list is utterly retarded if you ask me, you don't have a reason to shoot 80% of that list.

Very true of course the same could be said about all factions having spies and as such all communications to whole factions are now open to everybody.

And that is ooRP for you, you are corporate tradesman, not crusader.

The first part of that post is exactly the reason this is here, indeed.
Now as for a reason to hunt lets say... IDF, because you are in our House doing our job, we don't want you dead every time you enter Kusari, just showing a lack of efficency.
Extra insurance costs, less successfulo deliveries, more reason to get Samura to reansport it for you.
I am not sure that retarded is quite the right word, how about we go with an opinion that is different than yours.;)
