Since these threads always seem to go in waves, you might just want to head over to this one. A bit more useful as there is actual feedback from someone on the CSM > [@Abyssal timeouts because of disconnection](https://forums.eveonline.com/t/abyssal-timeouts-do-to-disconnection/302033): > > Hello friends on the CSM, I am writing you in the hope that you will ask CCP to automatically pause abyssal filament timers when a player is disconnected from the server. Like me, many players have given up running filaments because they lost something due to a disconnection. This issue can be easily resolved by simply pausing the timer in the event of a disconnection.
