Potential planet name exploit...

[ReaverKing]

forgive me if this has already been posted to death, but I felt this was an urgent matter requiring a fix as soon as possible...

Certain players are renaming their planets to blank strings, or at the very least, strings containing only spaces or possibly "blank" ASCII characters.

this enables them to have multiple planets with no visible prescence in the drop down except "fourth from the bottom" and potential attackers have no Idea of even the size of the drop-down for planetary invasions except that the "attack" button MIGHT disappear. while it would be an obvious (and common) occurance for planets to have identical, or similar, names to confuse potential attackers, blank strings are certainly SOME form of cheating. I have begun writing down names of players doing this, and will transfer this list if the administration requests.

similar to the guy with the ingame name that is blank?

i am a person doing this and i cant see a reason to y it is cheating could you please post a rule relating to planet names for me to see your point of view?. i do it becase the names of the planets are enoying me on my comand screen if this was illegal ill jsut go to all calling my planets 'a' or 'aaa' or something like that wich shourly can not be called illegal

I agree with seanet1310. You can't just make up rules because you think it would be fair. (Even if you happen to be right) Even so, the admins should first and foremost send a general message if they wanted ppl to put actual names to planets before making any list.

I like it when people have blank names for planets because it is more of a challenge and having to count a few blank spaces is not that hard.....

I did have blank name planets, but now I use them to threaten anyone that attacks me
