ABSOLUTELY! If your going to bounty someone, it is almost the same thing as attacking them, so why not use some energy? Plus it will keep some lower lvl mutton from continuing to bounty over and over again.

I would rather see the cost of a bounty more dependant on the level differrence between players. Within 10 levels difference, the bounty can be the minimum. More than 10 levels difference the cost is 100,000 gold /level. So if you want to place a bounty on a player 20 levels above or below yourself, the minimum bounty would be 2 million. 100 levels difference the minimum would be 10 million.
The same goes for collecting bounties. If the bounty is 10 million then the target must be within 100 levels lower than yourself. You can always try to collect a bounty on a higher level player.
This would stop low level guys putting ridiculous bounties on high level guys and stop high level guys from collecting bounties they don't need.

Tananda's idea is great aswell! Try putting up a new vote, asking whether it should be energy or gold.

Algadons highest level players, anon and tomb, seem to have an idea of being "bounty hunters", and so they claim bounties of amounts of money that make no sense whatsoever to their level, on lower level players.

Tananda's idea is excellent. It would definitely put a damper on the idea of placing a bounty on someone for frivolous reasons. I've been watching people virtually harrass each other via the bounties which should obviously defeat the purpose of allowing them in the first place. If a bounty is placed on one it ought to be out of dire need, hence the use of energy (emotional strain) or in the least a sensible price reflecting that need.

All I can say is...For sure! This would be good, and stop some problems. AMAZING IDEA!

The concept is energy, not gold here guys. When you attack you win gold and lose energy right, or lose just energy....So why should placing a bounty be the same... I actually think that placing a bounty should be more along those lines. You should have to place the gold amount and use ata min. of 2 energy to place the bounty. Also, to collect bounty, bata bing, 2 more energy. Humm, this might just stop all this cry babying about he hit me so I hit him and he hit me 5 times so I hit him 5 crap!

Of course, bountying should cost nothing for the very first time, then if anyone goes second time, then it should cost him energy, third time credits and if a man is mad enough to keep bountying then let it be credits+energy.

But it's a suggestion only, if it is possible.

So when are admins going to respond to this thread? When will New system be applied? As i think most people favour that, bountying should be limited only and that too at the cost of energy and credits. Moreover there are many accounts in the game that are just used to bounty around higher level players and annoy them, in certain way. Some of those are

1. _
2. snowman
3. bashecoreyandmental
4. (--,),,l,,
5. bootikiss
6. NIGHT_ANGLE

I have been informed by Chris Sir, that the new system of bounty would be introduced most probably by tomorrow (02/02/2011) :)

Thanks to admins for that as well. And the purpose of this thread also seems complete :)
