Stealing a Planet

Well this might just be me whining but... with the introduction of the Planet system and all, I was hoping to see what it does. Well I log on to my account and VOILA! There a message in my inbox saying I fount a planet and put it in orbit, so I eargerly look at my Command Page only to see it gone and robbed before I can do anything with it. So I was pretty mad... madder then this guy

and this guy

.
So my question is - Should they make a PPT for the planets (not a vacation mode for planets only) but I mean like for the first X hours your planet is protected from other attacks. Like the PPT you get in the beggining of the game.

you are right man, this sucks, i got a nice planet, i come back 8 hours after that and it wasnt there anymore....
who atacked me? why did i lost it, someone stoled it? I DONT KNOW, I HAVED NO ATACKS OR MESSAGES OR WHATEVER!!!
i think there is a limited number of planets, and when u found one, it might be from someone else(its just a theory)
as i looked so far, this dont like me at all, cuz u need to have a lot of naq to keep your planets, and its TOOOOO easy to loose them, this is designed for rank 1000+ people

Really it should show up on your attack log, at least it does when you steal one....

I still feel that 1 planet attack per day is the fairest way of dealing with this. I get my MS back this morning I might just go raiding the lower ranks

yeah, i agree with one of these implimentations.
Because two problems - you just get one, and it's stolen. That's unfair, even though i was out raiding today - I felt like as ass doing it.
The second is since stealing a planet kills all of it's defence, and the defence is so expensive, you could spend hours with two ppl fighting over a planet attacking back and forth.
Maybe some cheesy line like, "moving a planet so soon after it's last shift could destabalize it's core" - and give it a ppt every time it shifts hands.

The problem is that even if it was implemented for the amount of time specified in the poll (even a week for less powerful players) the defence upgrades are so weak that yuo still wouldn't be able to make it strong enough so that someone couldn't just come and steal it.
But I agree that maybe something needs to be done.

i agree, the planets are an excellent addition to the game but people do need time to build up some preliminary defences for their planet, especially the less powerful players
