As was said; all bounties must have a roleplay reason behind them. "I have a bunch of money and don't know what to do with it" doesn't qualify. If a bounty of that sort showed up, we'd lock it.
If I remember correctly all the current bounty board restrictions and rules were introduced shortly after someone did exactly what you are asking about. There was a bounty put on all freelancers and mercenaries in Liberty.
The reason you 'have to be special to be an arse' as you so eloquently put it; is a way of preventing the system getting out of control again. You may well complain about restrictions like this but it's people like you that cause them to exist.

And yet i see it in NY every dam day, over and over again. But my ID prevents me from solving the issue. I need to finish writing up that renegade navy BS RP i started awhile back and post it here. Then kill all freelancers on site myself.(except for a few who actually RP in NY)
Quote:The Vagabonds and Beggars Act 1495 was an Act of Parliament passed during the reign of Henry VII. The Act stated that: "Vagabonds, idle and suspected persons shall be set in the stocks for three days and three nights and have none other sustenance but bread and water and then shall be put out of Town.
In 1530, during the reign of Henry VIII, a proclamation was issued, describing idleness as the "mother and root of all vices" and ordering that whipping should replace the stocks as the punishment for vagabonds.
life became even tougher during the reign of Edward VI. In 1547, a bill was passed that subjected vagrants to some of the more extreme provisions of the criminal law, namely two years servitude and branding with a "V" as the penalty for the first offence and death for the second
