Station Undock Timer Bug/Exploit

Multiple times now corp/alliance mates of mine have been killed on undock within the 30 second invulnerability timer when they have done nothing that would break this timer. There have even been cases of people losing both their ship and pod to a Machariel before even loading grid. How a Machariel can even lock a t3, alpha it, lock the pod, and then also alpha it, all before grid even loads, is beyond me. This is either a bug or an exploit. And to be honest with you, although I haven't experienced it, hearing about it is quite frustrating. Especially considering it's giving free shiny kills to people who use cheap tactics and don't deserve them.

If you believe an exploit is used, have them file a petition, support.eveonline.com, under Rules & Policies, Exploits

IIRC the timer is now 10 seconds, not 30

That's the session change timer. You still have 30 seconds of invulnerability, or at least you are supposed to.

Are you certain they did not undock within a session timer ?

Undocking within the session timer, for example after docking, removes the invulnerability timer.
