no offense guys, but I don't want to even think about hunting a smuggler until they fix fiegn Death....
Can you imagine having it all day everyday? It blows my mind...
On the flip side I don't want to nerf the only good special a smuggler has so it's kinda a dillemma

Of cource all of you know this is not going to happen for one simple reason. We are tools of the DEV's, they use us to keep the jedi in check and something like this would take our attention off of them. It is simply predetor and pray. If we weren't as interested in killing them jedi would be reaching Master much faster. Its just the politics of conflicting interests. We want content, they want jedi killers.

If that worked I'd be happy, but lets face it, the meat puppets will STILL grind Jedi, and then more will follow like sheep. There are NOT enough Bounty Hunnter's to keep the jedi population down to what it should be.

I like the idea, but personaly i would go for the highest top 10 pvp rated players.
The 10 players with the highest PVP points of a server would be trackable then.
And can only be attacked by the bounty hunter that has a mission on him or her, other ways arround too wich leads to a 1 vs 1 battle.
So the gangsquads would be no option.
When thetarget would be eleminated, their pvp rate will get a certain amount of points loss.
When thetarget eleminates the bounty hunter, thetarget will get an extra bonus on his pvp points.
I'm not sure if this has negative effects in overal gameplay, but something in this way i would enjoy.

i think it would take the enjoyment out of the game for casual players, it will be a rich mans game, piss someone off and they will put a bounty on you, it will be a big greif fest . get in a fight with someone, and all week you will be too worried to go outside to shop or grind.

going back on what i just said, say if your in PvP and your killed by someone in the top 25 you get the choice (like box comes up) and says do you wish to place a bounty on X's head for 100x there rating (someone with 1400 rating has to pay 140k) if someone allready has the bounty you could add to the amount the BH gets for taking the mission. As the people are in the top 25, they kno what they are doing when it comes to PvP so they will prob be pleased for a little more content in there camp.

And? I mean I don't wanna ruin anyones game, but in the end, so what if we kill them? They aren't Jedi, they don't lose exp, its a small inconvience, and it benefits the BH community, aswell as the person who put the Bounty up.To stop expoliting they could do numerous things, such as only allow Bounties to be placed on Combat characters. Also the person putting the Bounty up could be forced to list a reason, like the NPC Bounty's, and then any decent BH(And yes most of us actually are) would see if it was an unfair Bounty, and simply refuse to take it. Course you get idiots everywhere and someone would abuse the system, but they would find a Bounty on THEM soon enough, and if they persisted in acting like they do, they could be reported for harrasment.That's a rant, but what I'm trying to say is there is NO REAL reason why player Bounty's can't be worked in.
I really do not understand why some players feel that just because they carry the bounty hunter title everyone else should be willing to be your little play toys. Just because you are bored with your profession as it is does not mean other players pay their money each month to be your content. I am not even mentioning Jedi bounites. I am so tired of bored little children who feel " a small inconvienence" is acceptable just so you can have more fun in the game.
Any Player bounty system that is not 100% voluntary is too subject to griefing. I have seen other suggestions where players can register to be part of a player bounty system, this is acceptable.

Did I say I was supposed to that? No, so back of moron. Now have I said anywhere I was bored with my profession? Nope, you need to shut the hell up and stop labelling all BHs the same.

the beef I have is this :
only about 10% of bounties are/were actually killing the mark. its supposed to be capture in the bounty hunting world. they need to incorporate this somehow.

Perhaps I was slightly harsh in my original post but by your response I obviously got the little child part right. I do not need to stoop to your level and sling insults. But when you state that other players should suffer " a little inconvenience " apparently so you can have more fun in game you are wrong. Also nowehre in my statement do i mention all BH's, I mention some players. So maybe you need to back off before you prove who the real moron is. Also how does one back of?
