i have players planets on my tab i would like to com message but i cannot cause there out of rank limit on my tab or there legionless or some other reason. i propose that for 20 energy we should be able to message the owner of any planet on our tab. the reasoning in this is simply we relay it to them though there planet it costs more to do so but its still possible. who else agrees with this

if they're in a legion, just have your legion leaders or officers send their legion leaders or officers a message

I think the point of the suggestion is to act like a private comm to the planet owner instead of broadcasting it to their legion leaders and officers.

and then you immediately see the other person is online because they replied
.......and you choose not to invade until later when they don't respond immediately

This idea is great, be able to tell someone "hey i got you 17X mega rich very massive icy planet on my scanner, flux it or loose it!", Dan would sell ALOT more Planet fluxes.

Your planet scanners have picked up a signal and routed it to your comm: -----------------------------

I think it should still just cost 5 Energy, I may be missing something but I don't see how it would be abused if it was only 5 but 20 would stop abuse?

just figured its realistic that it would take more energy to relay it

Also we should be able to post messages on our planets. I wouldn't mind letting people know "Hey, I don't want this planet anymore. If you want it, than come take it."

+1, great idea, the lower ranks know what planets wont get them killed, and the higher rank can clear out more "less useful" planets

right, abuse and skirting around game mechanics (or adding a new one that destroys much of the way the game is played)

I like the idea, +1

Several times, I have stolen a crappy planet just to recover special structures built on them. My plan was to invade the planets, use mylarai build extractors to recover the special structures, and leave them unprotected so the original owners could take them back. None of them have taken their planet back. If only I could comm them through their planet and let them know I don't want it ...

The fact they didn't try to take back an undefended planet could mean they realized they don't want it either... ;)

I agree with whoever said to go through the legion comm. Chances are good if they aren't in a legion, they are inactive and wouldn't miss a wayward planet anyway.

One time I did this, I built a lot of defenses on the planet to prevent them from retaking the planet right away. They were obviously upset about this, since they used four cluster missiles on it only a minute after I invaded. If I hadn't done that, there's a good chance I wouldn't have gotten the artifacts from the planet. I commed their ship and let them know I'd leave undefended once I got another mylarai build extractor. Once I got another extractor, I recovered the artifact and removed all defenses from the planet. They still haven't taken it back.

+1 love it. It'd be great for recruiting. You find a planet owned by an unaligned player and you can give them your recruitment pitch.
