' Wrote:yes - joining the faction was too open.... so open that one didn t even know one had walked through a portal.

thanks for clearing it up - and i do wonder how many BHG| actually know they are now in an official playerfaction. - that might be the first thing to make clear to everyone - cause with a faction comes responsibilities - and every member should be aware of it.

another thing is - how does it exclude those that are not in the faction? - surely, we don t apply the faction RP over canon RP like some other factions do.

on the other hand, i very much appreciate the "open doors" for everyone in the very uncomplicated manner - thats a fresh approach unseen with all the exclusive and ever more exclusive factions around ( and ... it is the only approach that works with the BHG at that point anyway )

lets keep the doors open as they are - but make people aware that there are doors.

I lost, I won, well it's the game ! So please understand that I'm not crying about the players killing me while this mod was done for that.

Nevertheless, there is a real problem with current hunters but one lady : Esther Carson.

You will note here that our huntress is the only one claiming her bounty.
Athenian, have your guild an other kind of incomes ?
How the hunter get funds for their operations when they aren't claiming the bounties ?

PLEASE CLAIM YOUR BOUNTIES OR DO NOT ENGAGE MORE FIGHTS !

Well, in more sophisticated, I'd say to hunters to do their jobs and do it well, not half ! It could come out of RP (even more than the "dai hacker" that i had right today)

Personnally, I'll take next kills from an hunter, which is NOT claiming his bounty in the following week, as abusive and out of role play.
You play an hunter so hunt me, don't kill me for simple pleasure of the blue text and fireworks.



EDIT : If it's not taken in consideration, then look at all the bounties there is in the forum, it could allow any mercenary to turn into a terrorist !

(Even when i dont have any Credit on my head) Its bad and people start fearing them more than the Police or Navy. Feck, there are even more BHG|'s in Liberty than cops. Move around. I never see a BHG in Bretonia. And there are Bounties to claim aswell.

In fact i get Bounty Hunters camping bases, Bounty Hunters shooting at me while docking and undocking. Attacking me without having a bit of Roleplay. Sometimes even without an rp'd engagement notice.

I really see a lot of Bounty Hunters Shooting at people which dont have a Bounty.

Remember:

You are not the Police!

I do not like Bounty Hunters. Straight out, let my bias be known. That said, I understand their purpose.

As a pirate, it is not that I cannot pirate every trader that comes along, I rarely do that anyway even if I'm not harassed by your kind. But it has become a bit ridiculous of late. I step out of base and I have about five minutes before one comes down the line and with minimal RP, attacks. I won't complain that I get killed, that's part of being the scum of Liberty, right? But when I get to fly for five minutes at peak time before one runs down the line is downright annoying. At least give some good RP if you're going to rain on my parade.

Now, that's the end of that part of the rant. Some of you DO provide fun RP. Sometimes, I get to fly around on a multi-system chase that ends up usually with my death. Barghests just can't turn fast enough to track ya, but that's part of the fun right? I love those encounters. I end up shaking with adrenaline and have a huge smile on my face. Kudos to those bounty hunters that provide such an experience.

Unfortunately, those experiences that I'd list as fun are few and far between. I mostly just run as soon as I see a tag or IFF now because it's not worth it to stay. Perhaps if you did something about that, I don't know what, you might have more fun too.

But perhaps not.

I'm to blame somewhat as well. I realize that sitting in some of the lanes that I do makes me an easy target. I have begun moving around and not hitting the same place for too long and I'm better for it. I'll tell you what though, if I see less bounty hunters, I'll not shed a single tear. Not a one.

' Wrote:Heh, I remember doing that.

I think I was in my 4.84 Molly Barghest, and you were on Wes. After I surrendered, we just sat there for around 5 minutes, and I was like, "What now?"

And you were like, "Dunno, no one's ever surrendered before."

I think we ended up RPing out an arrest, and I docked and logged.
