Player bounties..

Hello cmdrs,

i sill have not a clear idea about the bounties that a player have in his transaction tab. i know that if i need to be in a system and i have an active bounty i have to be killed by the police force of the system to clear my state.

But what if another player kill me ? does he get my bounties ? Undermining system can leave a lot of bounties ( roughly 3 mil week to keep the rank 5).

So now i have nearly 10 mil of bounties that will disappear in a week... What if a ppl scan me with the KWS and kill me ?

thanks cmdrs, Fly safe !!!

I think they don't disappear in a week. Whenever I had a bounty (usually only about 10,000) it turned into a fine that I could pay off.

When it's gone dormant, it gets reactivated by an authority scan in the appropriate system (I think).

Being killed by any NPCs does not clear your bounty; it only makes it dormant. If you get scanned in the system you were Wanted in, it will go active again and you'll get shot at.

If you want to clear a bounty by getting killed, you'll need to recruit a friend to take you out and go into Open or another Private group together. Make sure he warrant-scans you first so he can collect.

If it happens in Mobius, report them with video or screenshot proof. This would be a violation of the group's rules for which they'd be banned.

Sorry, but in my experience this is not completely true. It becomes dormant if you're killed by a random NPC, but if you're killed by a system security ship from the faction that gave you the bounty, it's cleared.

Hm. Okay then, that may work. Better be sure some other punk doesn't get in the final few shots, though! :)

My basic understanding is if you are playing in the Mobius private group then attacking any PC is a no-no, friend or not :)

If you are playing in another PG (which is PvP) or in open then you can attack who you wish - even if they are also a Mobius group player.
