Question about Mercenary contracts

[Robert.Fitzgerald]

Edit for more relevance: I would say all contracts need to have a physical presence (ie, a forum post) for the admins to know it's not proposed for oorp/pvp purposes. That sounds reasonable to me, as I have seen a few bounties and kill on sight orders for quite silly and player-based reasons (instead of RP).

While bounties and other forum contracts may seem "public", in roleplay terms the vast majority of them would be hidden transmissions between various groups. I guess a lot of people don't distinguish the boundaries between player and character, as people use forum posts for metagaming.

I still think that bounties should be posted, so at least the admins can know about them. Whilst other forum members can see it, they should be responsible to know that it's metagaming information, and should not necessarily be acted upon in-game (OORP retaliations, etc).
