Avoiding CONCORD is actually classed as an exploit. It shouldn't be possible with current game mechanics, but if someone would find a loophole they are not allowed to take advantage of it.
I'm not sure whether you have given me an answer or an opinion so I think I need to elaborate a bit.
I understand that there is some delay in CONCORD's arrival, and this delay is longer as you get closer to 0.5 sec.
So let's assume I am ratting or mining in 0.5 and a Ninja Salvager / Can flipper / general griefer arrives. I switch to my Alt who is nearby in a Rifter, jump in and kill the other player before he has taken any hostile action.
1. How long do I get before CONCORD arrives?
2. If I pop the other player or disengage quick enough is there any action I can take to vacate the neighbourhood before CONCORD arrives.
3. Is it possible to MWD outrun them
4. If I do get caught by CONCORD is that instant death or do I get a fighting chance, time to finish off the other player if he isn't dead, time to possibly wait out the session counter before docking or using a gate.
5. Is it possible to shoot at and kill the CONCORD ships, if so is that a big security hit or are they just invulnerable / untargetable.
6. If you do manage to warp away do they follow you, or if you dock to avoid them, do they carry a grudge and get you the next time you come out.
1) YouŠve got from 4 to 10 sec. (1.0 - 0.5), well maybe in 1.0 they need 5 sec.
2) After you fired your guns the first time (or even web or scramble) you trigger a spawn of godmode fighters (CONCORD). If you manage to flee (and i suggest you wonŠt do it) it is an exploit, which cost yourship ALWAYS.
3 to 5)NO - YES - NO. Means youŠll be instalocked, instajammed, instaneuted and what a surprise - instapopped.
6) AFAIK (not sure) they wont follow you, which means no difference, as it was an EXPLOIT, and as if youŠll get petitioned your ship will vanish from your hangar through GM, and not to be sure you may get a ban for the exploit.
