@Thyrzul The point is, right in the middle of RP I had to be AFK (no more than 1 minute) and I had no intention to avoid roleplay, but I didn't want to F1 in fear of being sanctioned, and I've returned shortly after, being interested into continuation of roleplay. But seeing my shield is down, I throw away the good manners (as my character would do) and defended myself (rule 3.1 draining shield is engagement).
Additionally, it's not about misunderstanding demand, but about the fact we were convinced what they requested was illegal demand, according to what is written in ID. Had they replied the PMs, whole thing would not happen - because, as I noted before, by lack of reply to our concern in PMs and given demand, we both thought those are two indie trolls.
