Now that's the right attitude.

I think, if played right, by mature, considerate players, bounties could be a lot of fun—problem is, the ratio of mature players to griefing little **self-edits** is a rather poor one.

Oh yeah this is something I want - I produce a bad buff that lasts a few minutes and I can give an 11% increase to the range everyone's - HUNT ME DOWN! Clearly I am a menace! Quick bounty hunters! Shoot me before I try to sell you faction points!
As a Smuggler I even defend properly unless master two other professions and now you want shoot me for it!?
(sorry for the double post - that's what I get for trying to use the forum spell check)

Can we start a new thread about how much these forums suck to use - one more time:

Don't you actually have to actually have some smuggling content in PLACE so that you can hae a bounty placed on you fora REASON first?

Though the idea does sound nice I would hope some content would be added to make the hunt sound kind or realstic. I mean give me a decent reason for being hunted, maybe a faction slice or something. Maybe stealing some credits from some crime lords (Like that's not orginal lol). Maybe slicing some Faction ships, or terminals, or maybe beating up someone when we should have left them alone.
It would have to take place after revamp though because currently a Master Smuggler would get worked by a Master BH. We lack a lot of specials that would counter a Bounty Hunter. I guess we could be up a decent fight with a 3 base template but a standard Master Smuggler won't have much of a chance.

Not really, i think the only reason alot of Bh's corpse camp jedi is to make sure they lose there xp and to make sure they don't end up showing of when they get rezzed. Smugglers are different, i couldn't care if a smuggler lost xp or not, my contract is to kill you once, and whats done is done, if you get back up later and i see you on the terminals i'll glady takethemission again, but i wont hang around wasting my time to wait for you to stand back up, the doesnt benefit me in any way.
You're missing the point. The BH wont get paid for his mission (nor get any XP), unless you are DB'd. Feigning Death != DB, therefor, no money, no XP. You dont think he's going to sit around and wait for you to get up?

Being placed on the BH Terminal will not make me feel like a smuggler. Being allowed to smuggle something will make me feel like a smuggler. Right now I am a halfass weapons/Armor tinkerer and drug dealer (in a crappy market, where no one is buying becasue chef foods and buffs have no down effect).
Fix Smuggler before adding us to the terminals. Give us some real skills and missions.Don't leave us as "Crafters with a Nutt-shot".

Indeed. There needs to be a Risk vs. Reward balance in place, first. Or at least Hassle vs. Reward.

Thanks Syz, that's Exacly the tone i wanted to put forth.. it seems to me that most of the smuggler crowd here is on the mature side. if they weren't i think there might be more flame threads ....

As I commented to a Master Smuggler friend of mine who no longer frequents the forums, it helps to be in a gimped profession. If the leets don't have anything to gain from even dabbling your profession, they tend to ignore your forum.

And even if they did opt to dabble Dirty Fighting, it's a pretty straightforward line—shoot things, train skills. No need to beg for help grinding it, y'know? (Speaking of, DF is the last track I have to train and I'll master, yay! Only 1.05 million Pistol XP to go…oh dear lord /cry)
