Weak. I just read that the "bounty hunters" are just NPCs that get up in your grill and take you to jail if you don't bribe them. That's not fun at all, and neither are the jailhouse quests. This all wreaks of PvPenalize and that's not good.

Look I realize you that people are demanding consequences for griefing, I understand that. But these consequences are game enders for people like me. If I have to go to jail every time I kill someone more than five levels lower than me, I'm just gonna quit, because then AoC loses one of its biggest draws for me. I know it sounds crazy, but the idea of "fun consequences" sounds much more appealing to me. Like the player posse I mentioned above, that's fun. If my penalty for killing other players was having to avoid players designated as bounty hunters, then that's pretty fun and dynamic, a lot more fun than "step foot in the land you're wanted in and immediately get approached by a group of burly NPCs". That's just dumb.

I think the only way to deal with this, is the WAR system. The ganker gets turned into a CHICKEN instantly. End of story.
There's no fun factor involved in killing anyone who just can't defend himself. And if you can't get any fun out of killing in a fair PvP fight is because you never win. Maybe you should learn to play your class, or go play any single player games?
