Wrong.
Sorry but this is indeed how FD sees it.
The Menu in Combat has a Timer which prevents Instant logging.
This is for a reason.
Using the Menu to Log Out at any given time. Is Legitimate regardless of whatever Situation takes place.
Its an Game Mechanic Especially made for this Purpose which does not delay your logout outside of combat. But does so considerably if you are logging out during Combat.
Not according to FD apparently, since they specifically stated that the feature's intention is not to be used to escape piracy/bounty hunting.
If you use your Head for a change.
Second time, and the third time will warrant a different kind of response to the left of the reply button.
You will Realize. That if this was not Legitimate. There would be no Reason for this Game Mechanic to be there in the First Place.
To begin with this Delay is longer than just Jumping out of the System and does on top Block your Maneuvers.
Hah... it's identical to the high wake charge time, please stop throwing around false statements.
And as if you need to maneuver after 4 pip to system and 2 to engines then boost, launch HS and chaff then start the log out...
Its an Option for People who have to leave the Computer and for whatever reason which is none of your concern. Wish to close the Game rather than Jumping to another System.
Which is funny how it happens so frequently in combat state and how other players that get affected by it doesn't get compensated for such a critical game play failure.
FD Stated in the Past that Closing the Game or Network Connection is not Welcome. Pls note "Not Welcome" NOT "Forbidden."
Oh dear, you're just throwing out all kind of false statements here aren't you...

If I am Followed by some Random Griefer. And my Telephone starts Ringing. You can take Bets I will not be missing that Call just because some Griefer thinks that I am "his Content" lol.
It's almost as if you can't answer the phone and high wake at the same time...
And I don't know what you mean by griefer so I'm going to ignore that.
This Game Mechanic which Delays Logout during Combat BUT DOES NOT PREVENT Logging Out during Combat. Is a Fact.
Except that timer makes piracy and bounty hunting improbable, which is why FD stated that it's not a feature intended for players to avoid the said interactions.
If you seriously want to Contest this. Then I would advice to bring some Evidence.
Logging out during combat is and should be a feature, just that its implementation and usage are questionable in various circumstances.
As for that Personal Comment.
Well Sorry but you see I dislike Lying. And Sorry. But it is indeed People like you. Which are the reason why Open is the least Played Gamemode.
Well, I'm going to count this one with the aforementioned second warning, like I said, do it a third time and I'll respond to your blatant disregard of forum regulation differently.

Completely according to FD. Your fanciful attempt at foisting a suggestion from a Customer Service Rep, as being more valid that what a Lead Designer says, doesn't hold water. The Dev's, not a CS Rep, say that the Timed Exit is not Combat Logging.
It's more recent and relevant to the issue that I describe, so of course I'm going to take an FD employee seriously.
And either you are playing with strawman or you misread, I never said timed exit is combat logging.
