how about you only get demoted if you go down to say, 2000 pres under the rank you are at?
i mean, the 2000 pres is for admiral rank for example. only if you go 10% below the requirements of that rank. It would stop frustration of getting promoted and, for example, lagging into a planet 2 minutes later.
Just an idea.

nah, its hard enough to get a "player demoted" message, probly should increase the pres you loose per ship, so youd actually care.

try loosing a couple of dreads and watch you Prestige then.
the bigger the ships the harder the penalty.
BUT if you dont get big ships chances are your prestige income wont be that fast. so its a situation where you need to evaluate whats best.

Prestige loss has gone down.
Large example command station ~2K in release? ~600 in beta.

theres no more of this in beta. if you hit a planet, you hit the planet.

ok but you see my point because of the frustration of constantly switching back and forth between 2 ranks...

i love it how people immidiately assume im not a dread player although, thats the only ship i fly aside from heavy sup and bomber cruiser 
BD for the win
i just avoid dieing in one, and still think if you loose a dread you should get a 1000 pres lost then it would take balls to take a dread into a fight. not right now how killa just SD's 2 dreads and looses another 2 in a hour

then you should be more careful, in beta it will be a lot harder to loose a large ship

well if pres loss is that big as 800 for a dread, then evryone will jump out of battle when reaching like 50-60% armor/shield. That wont be any fun. Then ppl gets iritated coz of that and pulls dictor. Then what happens is there wont be any more combat.
