Apparently some of the Tree Creepers and perhaps Freepers guilds/group of people got together late one night/early morning and placed a 3600 coin bounty on one of their own members and then lured a bunch of people out by spamming their coordinates in offtopic chat. After about a dozen people showed up they take off north road and started as a group, then killed everyone that wasnt with them. Also, they removed the bounty before anyone even had a chance to claim it.
For this reason and others that are similar and for every foreseeable and unforseeable reason I would like to suggest the ability to remove a bounty should be taken very seriously, with a 48 to 96 hour time limit before you can remove a bounty you just placed. This would or could easily be done by adding a /confirm bounty option when people place one -- also this would let people know what the minimum bounty is when they try to type /bounty new player amount because right now there isn't any "information" inside the game to tell you the minimum limit is 200c until you try it. Also there's no confirming it - I don't think.
"Are you sure you want to place a bounty on Player_Name for Amount? This cannot be revoked for 48 hours!"
