MS out = Rank drop

I see more and more of this,
I just seen an account in GnR that had 400bill attack, 0 defense, under 300bill covert and 0 AC and there MS was out,
The MS on the account in question is decent, so its clear that it what is holding rank, i see more and more people doing this, sitting with little to no stats but there MS is holding them in GnR because it cannot be attacked because they keep it sent out.
So make it that if you send your MS out, the MS rank drops to 0 so you do not benefit from that, this will stop people sitting in GLORY and REPUTATION without actually having any stats.

I'm not sure that making ascending even harder would be a good idea. Perhaps your suggestion would apply if the time spent in G&R waiting to ascend would be less.

Excellent idea. It is easy enough already.

I'm skeptical about it, but I guess it will help raiders doing their stuff more easily...

This would not effect most people ascending, and if those who are doing this have a rank drop it will make it easier for those who are trying to get into GnR with leaving everything in there account at risk.
Remember its called, GLORY and REPUTATION, not, let me hide for free bonuses.

I like GC's idea. MS being sent out are meant to be for finding planets and finding planets only, not to hide it from attacks. Sending out the MS purely to hide it from attacks (yes YOU know you do it) has no glory about it.
So I support the 0 rank for sent out MS's.

I agree with GC, if your MS isn't on your account, you shouldn't get the bonus.

Also, if you have 0 attackers, or 0 defenders, then you have a 0 rank in that power because they aren't there to give you power, therefore even more reason as to why a non-present MS should give you a 0 rank.

So then do you get a zero MS rank or your rank is based on the 3 other stats?

0 MS rank. The rank should still be based on all 4. Just like if you have no defenders.
