If you have a retal on someone and then you happen to be in the same fed before it expires... i think that you should still be able to retal... seems fair to me eh?
how tempting this might seem I think risk of people say it's a transfer is kinda high if fedmates can counter so unfortunatly I think it's not such a good idea.
Better yet, lets start having initiation parties where we glue abunch of tacks on the floor, strip down all new fed mates that we have retails on and drag them across the floor until they dance around and eat clams on their bellies XD
why not just get them in chat, get there fleet, build your up, then kick them and use your counter..then they`ll apply again and laugh and brag about how great their fed m8s are 0-o
