Sometimes, I can read "Date - Hour - Someone is attempting to engage cloaking device". Then, it appears that this player has some difficulties to disconnect itself. Any suggestions ? Thanks!

That message means they've used F1 to disconnect from the server. The message is displayed to inform players in the vicinity so that they can take a screen if the player in question was involved in any interaction; as it is against the rules to disconnect during player interaction.

It means that the player got out of the game via F1 and then exit game or the connection was interupted or the data packages weren't received for some reason and took too much time to response to the server.
So short: The player left the game.

But it does nto necessarily mean INTENTIONAL disconnection that should be immidiately Q_Q reported. There is also topic where people who are aware of forums can post their "Im sorry" should this happen to avoid being sanctioned by sanction-happy people.

First, thanks for the quick replies. So, it is more a network issue than something the admins have made specifically against intentional disconnections ?

Not really. The bad thing is there's no way to know for sure if the disconnect was intentional or not

Just make sure you set up a message here if anybody should have seen you if you got disconnected. You are staying at the right side if you post there and with that you maybe can prevent a possible sanction. But if you manually disconnect and re-enter the game again you are dead inRP if there was a battle for example. Do not use it for oyur own advantage, to escape piracy for example, too.

Dont be so sure. The occasional server lag can make your ship seemingly disconnected.
