Blanket Bounties come with ship requirements and are low paying, something to do while waiting for a specific target to show up. Due to the rule involving bounties and the stricter requirement of needing to be posted the blanket bounties are further needed, the blanket bounties are further needed, otherwise there wouldn't be anything for the BH to do. You can say escorting but if that ends up the focus to the point of being %90 of a BH's work then it gets into the territory of being the Trader Escort Guild. On top of that further hassle is thrown into the whole mess when the specific bounty is placed on a player who uses game mech. to their advantage such as changing their names when they here of their bounty. Without blanket bounties the BH finds themselves with the only valid targets being the ones placed on established players who keep their chars as they are. In the long run we are left with no hous BH with the majority of them moving to the Omicrons to be BH Core in a big ship. Actually the tendancy is already in that direction. In my opinion the blanket bounties need to stay. It gives the BH something to do and when the BH are in "town" it gives the unlawfuls something to do. In fact, from my many routes through Liberty I had felt that the place needed a renewed effort on the side of BHG and I have seriously considered the idea of re-awakening the Strontium Dogs (S/D) to come back in our hunting packs.
