On bounties

[David Grau]

On this issue, I say the bounty for constant killing is kinda whoreish. With me, I am quite sure I had a bounty on my head until I was killed. I would like to fire on that bh when I see him, but don't because the way I see it I was killed and because I didn't live I wouldn't be able to seek revenge. Know what I am saying? Basically a bh was paid to kill me, he did, now that I was killed it doesn't seem right to kos him because I see it as starting over once I respawn. Unless I get another bounty on me I see no need to attack them.

Now what I wrote below goes along with Mjolnir's point three, but covers what happens if you both didn't die in the same fight.

If a player is offered a bounty to kill another and dies trying, he will never be able to get the bounty on him again until said player is killed....they may sound confusing, but let me give you an example.

Unselie, you claim to be a bounty queen so I will use you in my example.

Okay lets say my fighter "Kampfer" had a bounty put on his head. Unselie goes after Kampfer and Kampfer kills Unselie. Now lets say Unselie just made a costly mistake in the first fight and comes back and engages me again and kills me. Unselie should not be able to collect on that bounty, because of being killed in the first engagement.

Now lets say Unselie died trying to kill Kampfer for the bounty, but another bh killed Kampfer later on and the bounty was paid. Now time passes and another bounty is placed on Kampfer and Unselie kills him this time and therefore Unselie is able to collect that bounty.

I admit I am still new to this server and am not sure if players who die trying to collect a bounty kill the person later before someone else killed the person the bounty was on. I don't know if it happens, but is there already a rule here that players can't do that?
