I think that while the bounty plugin is being changed to prevent the previous exploit, they should be re-added and watched closely. An official rule could be written up that if someone is abusing the bounty plugin at graveyards to repeatedly kill someone, the player(s) involved will receive a 1 day temp ban, increasing for repeated offenders. Bounties brought a lot of world pvp, which has sort of died out with their removal - I'm just afraid that fixing the plugin will take too long, and that my suggestion will suffice until it is fixed.

That sounds good to me. So long as the punishments are a bit tough like first offence, one day, second a week, third you treat them as you would a griefer.

I never thought they'd take it out, letalone for so long.

I honestly just expected a rule change, which is what I suggested, since it'd be a simple solution. Then a bunch of fancy-smancy ideas popped up which, while they sounded good in theory, require coding...and coding is death.

So, obviously, I agree with adding a new rule to bounties and bringing them back, as well. lol

Alright, kainzo agreed to re-add bounties with my suggested rule. If you see anyone in chat abusing the system to kill someone, screenshot it and send it to me or another mod/admin.

You mean it should be re-added so you can boost your own KDR right? #IrishIsBestMod

I already stated that before they took it out since bounties are a major pvp factor. So not sure if they will do this.
