Rule question

[ryoken]

That's using ooRP game mechanics to avoid an encounter. Running away is within the game mechanics, and the no reengagement rule is only for faiplay in any case.

If you aren't fired on yet, you aren't in an engagement.

True you are not,and as such a player who's F1's out is allowed to as the rule state's. You cannot F1 out once you are engaged. Problem is people get sanctioned for this, because once a pirate/lawful yell's that famous oh so RP word "HALT!" usually without a name. If you F1 out you get sanctioned because it is considered being engaged. So why is it different for warship's if someone declares they are attacking 3 ship's 5K away who are same ID,and same group? That is my question to the admin staff. As 1 or 2 of these ship's are allowed to run and dock, get their dread's/carrier's/BC's and come back,and it is not "re-ingaging". I myself do not see much difference. What applies to 1? should apply to all, no matter ship class, or situation.

Any admin's wish to jump in here? Please.
