Yes i've been looking on your threads for a couple of minutes now, but does someone have to have a bounty on them for me to destroy them?

[17:45:39] Wolfs Ghost (Murphy): Tom, you have problems. Go kill yourself.
[19:25:12] Johnny (Jam): Tomtom, I will beat you with a spoon.
[14:22:56] Prarabdh Thakur: KILL HIM WITH A SHEEP.
[17:40:48] Eagle (Junes): Tom should be slapped with a spoon.
[11:32:18] Warspite: Thank you for being so awesome Tom. <3
[18:17:36] Metano: I love you tomtom
[20:06:24] Warspite: I will seriously give you epic head.

It worries me that, as a (properly roleplayed) Hunter, you'd even consider destroying non-bountied players.

well, it doesnt stop people from destroying YOU even though you've no intention of fighting an unbounty'd target, have had a junker destroyer attack me without much reason, usualy the criminals will engage you regardless.

though im working on getting an official bounty system for bretonia, to make most faction criminals auto-bountied, a little evidence and you get sent some cash, if it goes through command.

Well, yeah, obviously self-defense is permissible. It is that for everyone.

Ok, another topic about BH restrictions. So I'm going to rant a bit here.

You see, when I first joined Disco server, I was doing various things to explore systems around.
So first I got a patriot, then defender, then falcon etc etc.
I was slowly upgrading myself.
At one point I wanted to have a cool VHF to fly and maybe PVP some.
So, you know what I did? I went to Deshima station in Shikoku with my Falcon, and started doing missions.
I earned fast, but not only because they were paying for missions only, but because they were paying out for picked up pilots as well.
I got some 5k per Lane Hacker, 3k per Rogue etc etc.
At one point I even started killing all pirates around, just to sell them on Deshima.
Was I ooRP with my BHG ID to do that? Since I had no mission against them..
No, I wasn't.

And please stop that "YOU CAN ONLY SHOOT ME IF I HAVE A BOUNTY ON MY HEAD" crap.
Sure, I hate BHG pvp whores as well, but there are good BHG role players that DO attack unbounties players.
AND I FULLY SUPPORT THEM.

I have a few reasons for that, so let me state them.

1. You get a pirate you can RP selling him to a nearest BH station and get some money for it.
2. Pirates attack you ON SIGHT literally, at least most of them.
3. They are mostly criminals offered a chance for a clean record and career.
Or some punks that needed a quick-cash job and joined the guild.
That's why it's a guild. And you can't expect some militaristic manners from them.
They are same as pirates, just lawfuls.

So, please, do not attack Bounty Hunters for killing you if you do not have a bounty.
Do not think that they are forbidden to attack you, because they are not.
They can attack you on sight and feel good about it, just for the sake of killing.
I RP my BH Hammerhead like that. I'm an ex criminal. And even though I mostly get payed for what I do, I will sometimes engage a pirate even if he doesn't have a bounty on him.
Because I hate him, because he is something I was before I joined the guild.

To summarize. BHG can attack you if you do not have a bounty on your head.
If you are a pirate that is.
If you are a junker, they probably can't, unless you did something wrong.

i dont disagree with chopper, I personaly RP a BH as quite lazy and greedy, just differences.

and Athenian, i noticed there was one, but I havent seen the BPA chief online AT ALL, and ive been paying a lot of merc's lately, so I figured i'd make it more RP'd and keep track of who's been paid what. plus other stuff ive been thinking of.

I think the stricter approach to RPing a BHG (bounty only) came about in response to the excessive and overpowered hunting of criminals using the BHG capship line. This was to an extent that made the game a pain for many players.

In principle I agree with you - I can agree with you because we now have the lawful factions establishing a reasonable and restricted open contract system that balances the odds a little more and tries to establish a more even playing field, and that pays attention to things like jurisdiction, etc.

If someone wants to play a BHG another way, then more power to him or her. People may disagree with you, but that is what the forums are for. If you approached the game with that philosophy while in a gunship, I'm sure people would react otherwise. And to be honest, the manner in which you do it is pretty much what I prefer. A reasonable sized ship that gives someone a fighting chance.

Now if only the pirates weren't always in bloody Corsair gunboats......

those limits are very reasonable. as i told my fellow S/D members before we only attack bountyed people. The ONLY time this may not apply is when i see a corsair but thats just some personal issue my bounty hunter character boba fett has with corsairs.

i own one ship above the gb lvl its a cruiser but its only used as a RP device

Ive had enough of disco for now. I might be back at the next mod release.
