Yesterday there was an Emergency Reboot of the TQ server. My alt was cloaked in an escalation plex, and I did not kill any of the rats. After the reboot, the plex was gone.

A). Is this working as intended?
B). Is there anything I could have done differently?
C.) Could I submit a petition for the escalation going bye-bye?

I'd almost completed a drone mission (no bounties, and no time to loot/salvage), and after the roboot it had siappeared also. I petitioned and they reset - had to start all over again, and lost any progress I had made. Bearing that in mind, I expect you could try a petition for a reset, but doubt it'd get dealt with in a satisfactory way.

The time you wasted making this post/filing a petition could have been otherwise spent finding a new site, just sayin.

A) I think it's working as intended. Simply warping to an escalation site triggers some sort of completion.

B) Not warping there with an alt that doesn't run the site.

C) You can, but I'm almost sure you won't get anything out of it. I once petitioned when I lost an escalation due to the servers being unexpectedly off for more than 24h on a patch day (cue witty comments about this not being unexpected at all), and I got the answer that they can't do anything about it.

So I'd say don't waste any time on it and find yourself a new escalation.

I'm pretty sure they made it where a cloaked ship being in a site for too long will despawn the site.

I filed the petition and did this thread from work where I am not able to log into game. :(

Just saying.

No it doesn't.

AFAIK escalations stay live until you get a "dead end" or new escalation message. After that, when there are no ships on grid the site despawns.
