I always thought if you were in pursuit while you are trying to flee, then you are allowed to re-engage.
yup, found it.
Quote:5.6 If a player engages cruise engine or docks during a PvP fight, this player is considered fleeing. The fleeing player must not enter the system where the fight took place with any of the characters on his/her account(s) while the enemy (player or players involved in the fight) remains in the system, but no more than 4 hours.
However, the fleeing player can re-engage at will if chased.
now something else...
Why is it that the Keepers are ALWAYS in capital ships? I never see anything smaller than a Nomad gunboat when it comes to Keepers, were is their RP?
