As I was fooling around with railguns, in the Distress signal experimenting with different maneuvers with them (ps to other players, sorry for kill stealing 
), I eventually engaged an Anaconda commander who joined the opposite side. Yes, Foolish and Futile, but I still wanted to try it out because npc anaconda pilots react like cows, and i wanted to see how player pilots react. Death is cheap right now.
Now, since our side had the superior numbers, he was getting swarmed he rightfully SCed out due to the superior numbers attacking him, he warped out, but turned around and jumped back in, couple of nearly half a minute later. Now this is wonderful tactic, however it feels like it can be exploited.
Should this be a valid tactic, or should there be a limit for this jump-in-and-out at the same location. IMO if you warp out, it should be by default at half speed of current gravity max outward until to approximately a delay returning by minute. This would probably also lessen the load on the hosts who have to handle a player leaving and then returning almost immediately after having left.
Otherwise, I'm going to start to assume people will warp back if they run away at no shields only to appear with full shields within a minute.
