Using the shortcut, we can purge any planet from our database.. BUT it does not show any error message if the planet is shared to the legion by someone else, so purger is consumed without doing anything..

Why not add a restriction, "This Planet has been shared to you. Can not purge."?

all you need to do is discourage your legion members from alerting crappy planets ...

I think that is exactly what Senator is suggesting though... the price of crappy Zane alerts are poor planets in the pool.
While I wouldn't mind if they changed it, I don't find it a big issue myself as I don't often find that many alerted planets to worry about.

yep .. since for zane you have to have a recent scan run .. you should be alerting the BEST planets you find ... not the WORST.

even if it is something that neither you nor anyone in your legion will be able to take down successfully .. that works for zane without any chance of someone burning a purger on it in the next 12 hours.

I scan one planet per 12 hours for zane instead of loner scan runs.... Also, say an unocc VL toxic is alerted for someone in the legion, it can cause a waste of purger

Oh yeah mate, they're always precious regardless of AP, can never have enough imo.
I just usually have a pretty good idea of which ones have been alerted before I do a big purge.
Generally I take a look at recent scans first, just to get an idea and I also tend to get rid of a big chunk of bad unoccupieds first, so any new shared ones stand out for me.

Yep. I purge unoccupied planets by size now starting from smaller first.. So Zane planets stand out too if I've purged everything of that size.
