I know there is some bad feelings about blanket bounties.

[Markus_Janus]

Congrats for dropping those bounties, not many people are there that are ready to see reason, bounties are mostly intended for factions that are hostile to each other, one more thing, none of us remembered RP element called marketing, Samura certainly cant allow itself to be seen as complete bad guy, because if that was so then none would buy its products.

Just clear up the bounties are closed pending changes, not closed for good just yet.
The question still remains, why would we be seen as the bad guys, just because some pirate attacks you?
And just look at what some companies, that are still alive and kicking today, have done in the past.
The world is fickle and forgets things very easily.
And forgiveness is always so easy to ask for.
A person may remember, but people forget.
