Remove the Blanket Bounties

[Agmen of Eladesor]

Using /renameme is lame, yet I didnt see anyone using it to avoid Bounty Hunters. Probably because they all get killed for having no 'real' Bounty anyway.

That's because you're a pirate. What the hell do you care about the name of the pirates? Well, guess what? We (the S/D, and later the BHG| ) HAVE seen pirates using /renameme to avoid bounties. How do we know for sure? Well, some of them have bragged about it, for one.



Since Ath, Prowler, Tic, and many others (with my contribution as well) have tried to make - considering it's still a game for fun - the Bounty Hunters Guild a professional organization. We have contracts with all of the houses for operating there. And you'll note that the blanket bounties that are being complained about are VERY house specific. Many a time I would see a Corsair in New Berlin - and the only thing I would or could do is wave at him - since there was no bounty on Corsairs in Rheinland.

I mean - think about what you're REALLY saying here. You're saying, "Hi, I'm a known criminal! I want to run around and do whatever I want with no consequences whatsoever. I want to pirate the traders for all their money - be allowed to sit right in the lanes - and not have anyone say squat about it." Well, get over it. Some of us LIKE to play lawfuls on here. While I've been rather tied up with the Guild War lately, I can certainly bring some of my people back into house space. You think you've got it tough now - would you care to see what happens when a faction with 40 some players actually decides to clean house? (Since nearly all of us have multiple ships available...)

That'd actually be fun again - we used to get 5 players in Liberty and there would be NO pirates suddenly anywhere in California or Texas. Why? Because guess what - we're there for the money and OUR survival - not yours.

Oh god... The end of days... Agmen agreed with me.
