Griefing? In my Hazeron? Say it ain't so.
Bounties should be replaced with reparations since the naughty things we get up to in this game are usually war crimes on a galactic scale. Take the same mechanic used by EVE but give it more punch by forcing the defeated player to repay the government which placed the bounty. Have it scale with the crime(s), up to and including empire-scale political reparations like trade sanctions or even empire asset seizure required to be paid out over time. It could even be optional for the losing party to actually do this; failing to make reparations can lead to increased sanction or an automatic state of war depending upon severity and empire settings.
If we're going to discuss a bounty-like system, why pull punches? Give it the oomph the demigods of Hazeron would actually stop and think about.
