Default Rat holing on empire

In my last several session I have seen quite a few people build up a sizable stack (2-3 buyins) and then quit the game and rebuy but only to the table buyin max, (exp. 100NL villan builds up to 300, then quits and buys back in for 100). I was under the impression that this is the same as rat holing and is not allowed. I have written party about this and have gotten no reasonable response so far. Anyone else experience this ? It pisses me off because it seems like a lot of the people doing this also happen to be huge fishies.

A review of the game rules available at Party/Empire will almost assuredly let you know if this is explicitly forbidden or not.

This should guide your actions going forward, because then you will:

1) Advise the site that their software allows actions which their rules forbid.

OR

2) Encourage them to change their rules to your liking.

I dont think that is forbidden because I see the shortstack players do that all the time. In the $25 tables they buy in for 5, and if they build it up to 15 they stand up and then sit back with 5. I see those guys more often in party but I have seen a couple of those in UBīs $50NL tables.
