' Wrote:Registering to claim is expressing intent to engage the named target(s). That is the gatekeeper. If your registration is accepted, you are authorized to engagbung. Gheis already confirmed that anybody could register, within reasonable RP, so there it is. This is not a grey area at all.
There are still requirements that have to be met, things like having positive rep with the bounty board and negative rep with the target(s), but almost every lawful and trade faction has that part already. One thing we're likely to see is some amount of filtering by the bounty board operators. Maybe Kusari wont let BOWEX register, for example. That's the only limiting factor now.
Regarding the bold, red text. You are wrong. Registering to claim is not expressing intent to hunt nor engage. It is expressing the intent that you wish to be paid for killing a target.
Anyone can register with any board so long as it fits within their role play. That does not give them the right to hunt targets like the BHG ID and Freelancer IDs do. It gives them the right to be paid for killing a target.
