CD spamming = Engagement?

[nOmnomnOm]

So lets see if we can clarify this.

If you are a freelancer and you see a pirate pirating a trader and you CD spam the pirate, asking the trader if he will pay to have the rogue removed, and the trader is a silent trader + the freelancer has no bounty on the pirate....

Is the CD spamming as the trader flees and the FL keeps harassing considered an engagement? If yes, is it considered an engagement that the freelancer interrupted an RP interaction by spamming his own CDs without getting payed from the trader to help in the first place wrong too?


Yeah i'd love to know. I have read on the forums recently that it is an engagement when you CD spam.
Apparently some people don't know that yet and just assume they can log and CD harass someone and it wont be an engagement.
