it just happend to me 4 times now that players use that little "trick" to get out of a piracy as their ship just disapears when they get kicked and don't remain in space for the 1 Minute like it does when they normaly F1. So my question,are they banned automatically or do I have to fill a report,too to see them punished and is it true,that their ship just disapears or did I just didn't see it and it stays the 1 Minute ? Hope you or some admins can give me some advises/hints for dealing with them.
Well it would be hard to screenshot that... and I know your pain. people F1 alot when the are getting pirated just when they are out of reach from scanners. I was bugging a LABC the other day on my Hyena and he got off my scanners and F1ed.
Normally you might be able to screen a befor and after shot and prove that they F1ed and also provide comm chat as well for backup. I have no idea about this one. It would be hard to do a before and after shot.

Looks like that thread was mishandled... I can clarify now that this is a distinct violation and we'll treat it as abusing game mechanics. You know, like we do to multiboxers and suicide traders. Submit a report and we'll wash their foul mouth out with some soap*. When someone tries to F1 this way, it stands out like a firework in the FLHook logs.
