Mostly play in Solo or PvE groups, so not an issue (I wouldn't combat-log on a poor ol' NPC!).

If I played in Open and was engaging in PvP I'd take my medicine and would never log. OTOH, if I was minding my own business and someone tried to destroy me I'd have no problems with logging out. If they don't care if they annoy me I see no reason to care if I annoy them.

I do, because I like consistency and facing consequences. I know technical difficulties, but FD somehow finds way to implement it, I will be first to applaud to that effort.

Not much, if a player logs then I win.
I'm not a big fan of chasing players out of the game just because I have a better ship...or those who choose such tactics.
I'm not a big fan of those who log to avoid in game (NPC) consequences either.
Both as bad in my eyes.

I'd like players to actually enjoy their time playing and experiencing the game...but, y'know....humans.

Much of the problem with the forum dwellers on this board is they refuse to respect any other playstyle than their own and shout down anyone who thinks differently from the PvE hive mind.

This is the forum that cried up a tsunami over 2.1 NPCs..

Polling a PvE heavy forum... what's the point .-.?

Oh but that's the thing my dear Gluttony : the forum is about to become self aware :D

Once it realizes that only an infinitesimal minority of gankers has been poisoning the whole game from the very beginning, it will demand a crime and punishment system. Which FD will have to build.

From scratch.

As you know, it will take forever. It will be unbalanced. It will break. Then it will break again. And one day, hopefully, it will almost work. *THEN* the community will have a look at true PVPers and maybe throw you a bone of some sort. Til then ... But you knew that already, didn't you ? I sometimes wonder why you're still here actually ;)

If I get a dog I'm gonna name it Chuckle. Just for the occasion when someone asks: "Where's Chuckle?"

To me logging out to avoid destruction, regardless of using kill process or using the menu, regardless of being under attack by a player or NPC, or just stuck in the mail slot, is cheating and frankly quite pathetic. I always imagine a grown man with beard on his face yet unable to deal with failure, crying about a broken toy...

That being said, to be honest I don't really give a damn about preventing it. It wouldn't be in my top-100 of things I would like to see fixed/improved.

'poisoning the game from the very beginning' -- well thats a bold statement. This forum has become a platform for witch hunting filled with a hate mob. I've really never seen anything like it before.

2. things.

I used the menu log when a bug heated up my ship and I didn't want to lose my DWE data. Now to be fair, I do have some facial fungus, and I was crying for the entire 15 seconds.

Cheating is breaking the rules, so it's objectively not cheating.
