There's also a difference between doing it once, and doing it twice knowing and not carrying that its pretty damn annoying and suspicious--looking to the other side.
As if you didn't know.
Just got a bit irritated on this reply. How about you learn all that happen and then start posting? When I loged back I didn't head straight into battle, you see. They attacked me again, I kept sitting where I was before I crashed.

However, there is a difference between genuine 'sorry, it happened again, carry on plox?' and sending a message out to those who would attempt to use this as a loophole. Whilst vox pop is a sign of a healthy community, let the admins decide, and try to keep calm and carry on.
Aparently some of them are capable of doing rush decissions without any bit of investigation.

If it were some verbal role play where some diplomacy was taking place, I see no problem with trying to rejoin in the same action fake a radio malfunction in rp. But if it is a PvP furball, coming back after being disconnected for some reason, might not be the best choice to make in terms of everyone´s game experience. It would be easy to add some wording to the existing rules. If you are in a PVP engagement and, through no fault of your own get disconnected...i.e. pc crashes, power goes out, dog eats your power cord, you may not rejoin that engagement. Hell....it does not even have to be an official rule. Just some common sense and respect for other peoples gaming avoids a lot of BS.. Play another character, go to another system...visit Gallia, I hear it is empty this time of year.
The thing is that I was the only reason this pvp engagement happen. The three of them happen to try to kill me, fail during my disconnection. When I came back they were gone already. I appologised and kept sitting where I was. They came back and engaged me again.
Edit: By the way, it happen in both cases. The "facts" I got sanctioned by were very lame. My point of this being just a rage sanction because CR felt humiliated by loosing 3 fights in 2 days to the same oponent have just as much point to live as their accusation. And even more, because when I got more or less stable, they lost a fight three cruisers against single Valor and deal only 3 hull bars damage to me. So yeah, F1ing from that kind of makes small sense, don't you think?
Anyway, my only fault was not posting it in Disconnected thread immediately. Oh well, will know for future.
