Hello,

That's one of our shareds. Can I get via PMs the evidence, the fine amount and if possible, the person who was flying it?

Cheers

Disconnect was cause of critical power error, players encountered were messaged as regular in the next encounter cause until I booted up they left to other location and we got completely other fight.

There definitely unfair decision made, especially since that random fight occured 14 days ago and there was no use of disconnect in order to have any advantage in encounter in pvp meaning.

LIBERTY THROUGH THE POWER

INFORMATION, RECRUITMENT, INTERNAL COMMUNICATION,
FEEDBACK.

[Luke.]

As mentioned in the original post, we realise the disconnect was likely not deliberate as is the case in several instances. However, this is what the Disconnected thread is for. People cannot reasonably deduce that the disconnect was entirely accidental and it is prohibited to do so without notification in the aforementioned thread following the disconnect, especially during a PvP encounter and after restocking. Even after the encounter would have been fine. With so many nuances to disconnects, we have to outlaw it as a blanket rule or it'd be abused with technicalities at every turn. Again though, the Disconnected thread exists as a means to absolve yourself ASAP, or otherwise via apologising to the other side for it once you're back, or after the encounter is over.

We apologise for the delay in the sanction process, this was due to unavoidable staff absences. However, the fine stands.
