Feels like it may have been. It has been hurting for a bit...started at least a weekback.

You ghost legion boys have a combat logger in your ranks, not that I am suprised.
Do you encourage breaking the TOS or just condone it?

If you have some personal problem, please solve it with the related person or with the squadron leadership directly. Also, if you think the ToS was breached, contact Frontier about that. There is no point to discuss such things publicly as it never ends well and just pitchforks are flying around. Thanks.

It wasn't a combat log.  He took damage just as he disappeared (78 down to 77%) so he dc'd using the game interface and 15s timer.  Uncool?  Maybe.  Against TOS?  No.

Hello does anyone know when you can give people in yu squadron the wingman, senior wingman, and veteran roles on your squadron? It justs says "requirements: must be at least days active" But that doesnt tell me anything, and I couldnt figure out a way to specify how long it had to be for each role.

From Fdev.

To clarify: the official stance on exiting the game via the menu, at any point, is that it is legitimate. I suspect at some point we may increase the "in danger" countdown, but for now you just have to wait fifteen seconds. However, we can't speak for how other Commanders view such actions. For the record, when we talk about "combat logging" at Frontier, we mean the act of ungracefully exiting the game (either by ALT-F4 type procedures or by cutting the network traffic).

Here's an honest question, but what if his network is botchy and legitimately loses connection. Not every time I might add, but occasionally?

Just because Fdev won't ban you for it does not make it not combat logging.

It looks different when you lose network connection, and he admitted to it in DMs. You want screenshots?

To jump in on this,

The PowerPlay comunity sees Combat Logging as a ban-able offence. We look down upon the exiting durring a fight, but a legit exit is not considered combat logging. The Sandro quote there is the gold standard.

Nah, I believe you. I was merely asking as a legit question and not in a bad way.
