Earlier today at approximately 05:30 an ABP fleet engaged two zealots from the corporation Dark Design, these pilots were escorting a Gallente, obelisk freighter
After chasing this group several jumps ABP caught up to the freighter in 3KNK on the COT-77 gate, the freighter and zealots proceeded to jump through into COT-77, ABP followed, both zealots were destroyed, the freighter was scrambled and fired upon. Unfortunately after around 1 minute the freighter vanished. The matter was reported and after a long session with a gm we have been told it is going to be ôinvestigatedö.
WeÆre well aware this has happened before but we still feel that ccp is taking a far too soft approach to the situation, we would like to know what steps if any, ccp is taking to fix this obviously massive fault with the pvp timer.
Finally weÆd like to thank the two pilots from Dark Design, SKiNNiEH and Yamon for their valiant effort to defend the freighter in their very expensive zealots,( that made the effort on our part worth it) and also say thank you to silver lady the freighter pilot (formerly of Reikoku, BOB) for letting the eve community know, if your provided with an opportunity to cheat you will take it.

Hmm i have to agree that the combat timer sometimes works and sometimes doesnt but....
Doesnt the 15 minute PvP timer only effect ships that have activated a module on another person. Since freighters have no targeting system and no slots there would be no way for them to ever have a 15 minute pvp timer...
Just wondering cause i thought thats how it worked..

Nope. It works both ways, sp if someone activates a module on you the timer will also start. However, if you activate the module on the ship, after they've logged off, then the timer doesn't start.

The current owner of Silver had nothing whatsoever to do with RKK.

The pilot clearly isnt in BoB anymore, why do you still have to mention it? Its just a flamebait...
at the time it looked like the pilot had ditched his corp to avoid war decs etc..

getting around the logoff timer is surely an exploit now no?

I've had a couple of pilots use the same age old trick to evade the pvp timer, CCP said they removed it but alas..no. 'Investigations' mean absolutely nothing to GMs, its just a way for you to stop badgering them.

Same thing happened to us with an SA freighter. When they jump, the agression timer is wiped. If they log while they are cloaked that means they were never under the pvp timer and will vanish really quicky.
Great
Your final response will be: There is nothing we can do.

It's really very simple - the Cold War 30min pvp timer ONLY takes affect when you log after combat. If you log before combat(are attacked a few seconds after logging), the old , short pvp timer is in effect.
It's a matter for the devs to decide, and so far we havn't heard anything from them about it to my knowledge.
