Could trusted players of that prison be given jobs for good pay? Like guarding, repairing faulty cell cages, craft those cool suspended prisoner holders, retrieve a prisoner escapee', other good jobs that would be thought of in the future.
It would be nice if there were good paying jobs out there that can actually benefit the good players in the game.
Prison Wardens : 800+ or 1000+ karma for job access?
I really like this prison idea, give bounty hunters a good reason to keep the miscreants alive for cash bonus.
Edit: Another good idea, put collars on the prisoners so that it will be obvious to see an escapee' roaming in a city, have the collar act as a "Bear Collar" and the bounty hunter will be given a sensory device that describes how close the prisoner escapee is to the bounty hunter.
Example: Bounty Hunter enters a town,
" Sensory Device starts to make a slow paced beeping noise "
You get closer to assigned prisoner escapee' - " Sensory Device is beeping erratically "
You'll be given a special rifle to sedate the prisoner for a few minutes, giving you enough time to put a cuff or chain around him. Then the prisoner is either forced to follow bounty hunter to the prison or instantly sent to the prison cell.
If the sedating rifle round is not used on the prisoner and on another player, the town guards will shoot the bounty hunter.

set a min counter before players can escape? that goes up with chars level and punishment and x amount of time previously spent in jail... so in the end sure you got 150 speech but you still have to wait atleast 2 hours rl to use it to escape prison...

i'll say it again, i think this, in the form its in right now is a bad idea, the guards don't notice people spamming pick pocket but they shoot the guys that get huge stacks of ammo stolen.

and i'll get thrown in jail for putting a 9mm round from a mauser in to the eyes of a guy who stole my new SMG right out from under me.

even had a assault rifle that was in my hands go poof once, i would suggest making the guard AI better, or adding a boost to the pick pocket timer for picking pockets in a guarded city so people cant strip some one of every bit of gear they have, other than that, from a in character stand point, who is paying to feed and keep these scum balls locked up? and who is arming the guards with enough crap to stop a gang of power builds? the brotherhood? i'd doubt that very much.

sorry if i seem negative but i would just like to remind every one of the things that would need to be changed so that this would help rather than harm.

nah i dont like the idea. Jailing for bombing? for killing? for stealing? Do you have a list what is "legal" to do in wasteland? I think you are just trying to solve your own problem of getting owned in guarded towns and i really do not like it. As kilgore said if we are going to suggestions like these then better disable attack on guarded towns at all, but still best is to leave as it is.

Nah, I am not trying to solve any my problem, I just want to make some RP here (ways to leave the prison) and also, secure some newbies from bombers, if you like blowing yourself up do it not in guarded city ;) Simple

All this can be abused, as Lexx said, and player-driven system will fail - offline guards, betrayers, exploiters, abusers.

If you're looking for jobs, as some said the Bounty Hunting might be a solution, but the real way to give players something to do is NPC-driven factions, that will one day be implemented. If I was looking for a job or a way to improve my way of playing, I'd wait for them.

All this can be abused, as Lexx said
Everything in this game can be abused nowadays... raiding guarded city, raiding guarded mines, killing NPC Traders...
That's the point to let players do what they want, anyway, it's a lot better than this shitty Army Roleplay where soldiers are locked in base and their "fun" depends from whims of you, Izual... it's such boring nobody can raid your kiddy base, too scared to open the gate when some russians stays there?  ::)

Who said anythign about the Army here ? If you can onyl suggest things because they are the opposite of things you hate, I suggest you just stop there. I didn't tell you Prison would fail because there's already a roleplay project, I didn't ask anyone to join the army, I didn't even talk about it, but you seem to hate it so much you ignore my post to tell all your hatred here. Stay in your dead suggestion topic ;)

So how about that you must be online to get out when someone else is paying/taking you out? Alt problem dissapear.

It will not, as dual-loggers will not care.

And about players without nothing... that's just their problem they hooliganize in guarded city without friends/money/skills/charisma.

Yes, it's the fault of the beginners, etc. Let's punish them more, only the elite shall survive.

I bet many players would also vote for a no loot-mode on death.

not to mention, why would NCR waste the money to build a super max con can one they just shoot people for breaking the law in a serious way now?

The NCR, actually, is running at least one prison, which is called Black Canyon.

Well, everything coud be abusable. But this is beta, is not it? Why not start this idea realization adding only 2 ways how to escape? By time or by help from temates. You could not abuse the time and if your temates will help you, this will be roleplaying. After some time, if this will be enough balanced, you can add another way how to escape.

Lexx, so say me, this game is for players or for you? If players want something, why you always look only for worst sides?
Have I to be GM to make an RP idea in which you won't protest?
