Small battle runners.

[Vahn02]

It seems to happen quite a lot where one or two people will only run away in the small and large battles where they only intend to waste everyones time. I would recommend an out of combat timer of some sort that would start sinking an enemy player if they stay out of combat for more than 10 minutes. I know there is already an out of bounds timer but that is not good enough when its a small fast ship just running away. Given that you cannot escape the battle with your ship intact except for actually winning the battle, this should give people more incentive for people to try and actually help win the battle by not running away. Not sure if this has been brought up already, it probably has but I thought I would still post this suggestion. Thanks for your time.
