I think bounty should be limited by either; the enemy you killed you, or only before the first refill. To remove this "point trading".

I support this idea, however, I would like to say that, with bounty, holding points is not fun. Why bounty is good, and why I was so desperate to bring it back was because of how much fun you can have getting together with a group of friends and seeing how many points you can bounty off onto one player. It's incredibly fun bountying 50,000 points on one player and seeing people scramble to kill them, and this is really the beauty of bounty. It does completely void the point of points, however fun it is, so this feature, ultimately, receives my support.

I think bounty was a lot more fun with the old point system (where you only lost 2.5% of your points) because you could gain a lot more points and it was still fun to have lots. Now, I feel like everyone is going to have a lot of points and it's just not as interesting. It just doesn't feel the same as it used to.

Lol I say keep it the same.

Points are not meant to be a competitive thing. Bounty points are meant to just be a kind of.. for fun thing. Points don't show you how good someone is or how bad they are. That what w/l ratio is for. It make a game very interesting when someone has a 5k bounty on their heads :p makes you and everyone else wanna kill that person, and gives you some motivation :p. You said a 1k or 500 max? NTY lol. I wouldn't go out of my way to kill someone for that little of points. I can get that much just winning a few games lol.

I meant each person could bounty a maximum of 500 or 1000 points on a single person, but if multiple people do it, it can pile up to as much as you want.
