I think you still can, but some people have experienced the "knocking at the right door" message when trying to reclaim planets. I haven't experienced that myself though, and I haven't tried to reclaim a planet from someone that went on ppt either.

I noticed this message when I tried to took my planet back, player was of course on PPT, but he either abandoned planet or put in on MPDSD.

you can retake the planet up to 12hours after it has been taken. Regardless of ppt.

I think i had the problem of not being able to retake my planet back, i believe it was because i tried to take the planet back from the other player by using the conquer planet but should have been taking it back through the attack log, i believe a button appears on the incoming attacks when the planet was stolen for you to reclaim it. Could be wrong tho. ~Thamuz~

Yes... that button still appears in the attack logs. From my experience, you can take the planet back. The only time you may not be able to is if they take and dump. The button will still be there in the attack log even if they dump the planet... but I think they need to send their MS out to retrieve it.
From what I read, they stand a better chance of recovering the planet if they send their MS out ASAP. I personally wouldn't know that, but I do have a lot of victims who may be able to answer whether or not that's true. I don't leave any planets that I want to keep, out in the open.
Planets are protected by PPT or can be protected by MPDSD after 12 hours.

After 12 hrs.
PPT will protect a planet stolen.
And you can also Install PDP's on it, and MPSD it.
After 24 hrs the planet if not under PPT/Merls is able to be taken by anyone.
If a planet of yours is taken then dumped right away. Sending MS out to "look for a planet" should have a good chance of bringing your own planet back.
Currently if a player takes the planet then runs to the other realm I believe you still cant take it back off them, unless you follow them into said realm.
Also theirs the Knocking On Door bug, not sure what causes it.

You can not steal a planet and immediately MPSD it.
