Line 1: Line 1:
'''Combat Logging''' is the act of ''logging off'' or ''exiting'' the game during ship-to-ship combat. Often times, players will generally terminate a game session when they feel discontent with their current situation in the hopes of restarting in a safer position. Intentionally quitting during a tough situation is fairly common in gaming, though it is widely frowned upon and considered unfair. Many online games take measures to prevent this behavior, such as possible penalties on the player's account or simply setting a delay countdown until the player is actually logged out.

Combat logging is officially a banable action and will have consequences if done a significant amount of times.
Frontier Developements have also claimed that they are working on a way to solve the issue, however, there hasn't been any kind of success or progress in the past years.
