BountyBot is going away

Jun 26, 2004 BountyBot link
With the new universe, there doesn't seem to be much of a place for BountyBot. Since BountyBot went online in March 2003, Vendetta has changed quite a bit. I've enjoyed watching this evolution, but I don't have enough time to evolve BountyBot to match.

BountyBot is currently online, in the NT sector "Dau Senate". (System 19, L-10)
If you have credits in the bank, you should probably go collect them.

It's been fun, good luck everyone!

BountyBot, Im sorry to see you go, but perhaps, if the Test Sector is implimented you may return there?

Well BB, it's been fun playing with you, I only hope that eventually there IS a place for you in this universe.

Oh yeah, How am I going to get my 100+k in my bank If I get blown by the DEFBOTs when I enter the sector :(.

aww :(. guess the bots will have less to do now, that's true.

<especially since sending credits requires that you're in the same sector as bb. if the devs ever change that... perhaps lottery, bounty placing, and banking would be as of old>

Gah. Finally. I was so sick of being spammed with "You have 412 credits in your account" when I logged on, and then it wouldnt give them to me. Damn bot.

BB, when will you go offline?

We'll most likely implement something like BB in the near future.

aww, i agree, the universe isnt very bot friendly (unless someone has a cluster or 7000+ pc's to run vendetta on?

/me gives a 21 Vulture salute to BB

Well, BB, all things have an end, I for one, hope that this however, is not the end, but an intermission, and that you'll be back soon...

Thanks for all the kind thoughts. :-)

I'm not sure when exactly the bot will go offline. It pretty much runs itself; I just won't fix it next time it disconnects.

I'm glad to hear the devs will be adding some BB-like features. I think the devs have been doing a great job of ramping up the game from the test towards the MMRPG they've always had in mind. BountyBot was always very much a part of the game as it was, not as how it was going to be.

I'll keep an eye on how Vendetta Online evolves. Maybe my interests, my free time, and vendetta will intersect again. It's been fun watching people interact with the bot and its features.

What will I do with my money now that I can put a bounty on people who blast me to bits? Ah well. When you are finaly gone I hope you are put adrift in your ship and sail into the night....
