OK here is the sit:
Me: shooting at rats Rats: almost dead Me: looking at 70k isk bounty and licking lips Rats: poof-....gone without a trace Me:huh?WTFIhatethis@$#!@&%* i wanna isk.
What is going on? This has happened to me numerous times, and i'm getting tired of it. Do NPC's have the option of warping out of a bad situation?

They warp off sometimes.If you had looked around the system you would have probably found them.

And sometimes they just despawn.
I used to get It. Then It changed. Now I don't even know what It is.

Another cause, if you are doing a mission, happened to me last night. I was escorting a corp-mate through a level 4 - Recon 1 of 3 to be precise. This is a strange mission in that there are two rooms of rats, but you don't need to kill anything - just wait for the rats to appear, and then return to agent.
Anyway, we cleared the first room, and I went through to the second room to get aggro. My corp-mate had missed me telling him that there were two rooms, and returned to his agent to complete the mission. So in the middle of a fire-fight, all the rats, structures, asteroids, clouds etc vanished. Took me a few seconds to figure out what had happened.

IME it doesn't happen very often, only if you take a very long time to kill them or you've kited them too far from their original spawn point (off the grid)
Very occasionally they turn up at stations, MWDing off at high speed in some direction.

Seen it in Min space, I fitted a rifter and was at 1.5kms (approx) and the cruisers were still pulling away from me at about 500ms. Φ________________________________________________Φ ΦWanted: ΦAmarr Prisoner ΦMinmatar Drone

I thought they despawned or just flew off after a bit...
I was tooling around in my fresh outta the box Badger and decided to see how long it would take to mine it full...
One mining laser + 4k cubic meters of space = Me falling asleep
I wake up and my hull is almost entirely gone...but there is no pirates, nobody shooting...my shield is fine...
This is the second time it happened...I consider myself lucky lol

Mining makes me fall asleep too!
Hull gone? And what about your armor, was it gone too?
You can check your logfiles and find what happened, find the file by date and see who shot at you. The shield naturally recharges, so your shield always come back. If your armor was not damaged, maybe a nice guy found you mining and damaged and repaired you... (I doubt much about this scenario) Either there was rats that despawned or someone took care of them before you die. Or, some guys tried to suicide gank you and concord took care of them.
In both cases, you are very lucky because a badger has not much HP...
You should not mine in industrial, it's boring and slow, not very profitable. -- Pocket drone carriers (tm) enthousiast ! The Vexor Navy Issue is much more fun than the Myrmidon !
