that is an exploit when is that going to be added to the penalty
it is cheating to wait to other players leave and get it
which i have been dinged afew times when i thought 2 left

a fix is make sure you see them warp out not just disapear

    Thanks for the tip i'll use this in future!

    Rather annoying when you have members jumping into elites and your not getting anywhere or its taking 3x as long, even more annoying when your penalized because of a game bug. :rolleyes:

    I ould post suggestions but, they wouldnt listen anywya.

    There is no exploit: People often get disconnected because the game crashes or their Internet conks out, and when they reconnect they'll resume the fighting...probably.

    In any event, the reason you're being dinged is NOT because players left, but because you left before 15 minutes. It does not matter how many people leave before you, or how many you BELIEVE leave before you: Even if you are the first to leave, there is no penalty if you have been there (or possibly the mission has been running - this part isn't quite clear and is the same if you were there from the start) longer than 15 minutes.

    This is also used in PvP to avoid dying.

    You do understand that you will only see a ship warp out if the player was in space when they joined the mission? A ship disappearing just means the player is moving to a ground map.

    But thanks for letting all the quitters know about the exploit. Some of them might not have known about it. :rolleyes:

    EDIT: Although, AFAIK you still get the leaver penalty if you log back in and choose not to re-enter the mission you bailed from.
