I recently scanned a crystal planet, which according to the wiki only comes from using some artifact which gives +1 size, +2 richness to all types on the planet it is used on. However, the planet has the following stats :

Size: Average
Mining:Abundant
Artifact:Ultra Rich
Research:Very Abundant

Can anyone explain to me why someone would use an artifact which gives the aforementioned bonuses on a planet with the stats below?
small,
mining :very sparse
artifact: very rich
research: sparse

Actually, it would have started out as Small:Sparse/VeryRich/Average, but yeah... Some people do silly things sometimes...

I know MSMs, QSEs, and Terraformers were (I even got a Terraformer back then) but I didn't know Crystallizers were.

Not ever. Only Terraformers, QSE's and Mass Melters were in the artifact bin.
@ OP, desert only come in very rich as best abundance. Bad size tho.

yeah that was around August and September 2010, when I started playing, I remember getting alien star charts and a melter before, must've lost the icy I melted when I went inactive for a few months around Christmas 2010

I wish they came back as AP drops but I know that won't happen again. Things are normally taken away and not given back.

As for the planet, yeah I have found a few like that with no owners. Just means they lost it when they stopped playing.
