It's kind of ironic that we're asking to be hunted.
I feel a need to clarify, though... a good point was brought up, that as long as we're not hunted 'just for standing around'. Like the bounty system just cycles through all the smugglers in the galaxy so it's just your turn to be on the terminals. IF getting on the terminals was a CONSEQUENCE to failing SMUGGLER MISSIONS... that would be awesome. There have been a lot of very cool discussions about how this system could work, including adding a 'reputation meter' for smugglers an BH... which I think would be fantastic.
However... what WOULD suck big time would be if for no intelligent reason smugglers got put on the terminals. Like... whenever we used Panic Shot, it raised our visibility.
Oh, christ... I shouldn't have said that...
Where did you get that idea from? I've never even HEARD of getting on the terms on a random basis.

At least the loot system makes SENSE 
For the life of me, getting put on the terms for standing there seemed a very poor reason to get afraid of the bounty system. Meh.

I would love to see bounties taken into space as well. I can imagine being on a actual "smuggling run" and having to watch my back, love PVP is space btw. I just wish I could get certified for a YT-1300 and I'm a double imp ace...c'mon.
But anyways I've had a bounty hunter but would love to be chased, just as long as they made evading the BH or killing a BH (or two or three) worth wild.
Uhura E.
Bloodfin Master Smug...pilot...yadda yadda yadda

And I'd like to farm faction in deep space, but we can't all have everything we want
I for one would love to be hunted by BH such as yourself.
Or BH like Myself (almost a master). I can picture it now... Like a dog trying to bite off his own tail... wooop wooop woopp woop

The belief would be that some players would not be capable of fighting in space, I wouldn't mind doing it, but honestly. If a master pilot bounty hunter hunts his mark who is a tier 2 novice pilot who is in the middle of a mission, then I could see lots of animosity arising.
Not that it matters to me. I think it would add lots of content for us to be watching our back.
This is certainly a valid concern. Dying would not be so bad in itslef, but dying right before the end of your 2 hour long, tier 3 escort mission would probably make people quit.
Hopefully they could have ground based smuggler missions and space based ones (that can only be taken by master pilots). Then you could only be hunted in space if you did the space based missions, but these might pay more for the added risk.
