Ok, so how does one take this? I was just perusing my home system when I noticed some douche, er I mean some Inglorious Leader has moved into my system and named his planet as such:

This is obviously going to be a staging area for a fleet and a marker for his alliance, I have caught the cargo ships supplying the brand new planet with much needed resources to start building weapons of war.

Should I simply declare war myself now and do what I can before he moves his fleet in, then declares war on me after he is done shipping in all the supplies, and crushes my planets there?

Planet names mean very little. I have one named after a potato chip company and another after a song by Fuel :P

I'll place a good wager on the intentions of placing that planet there if you'd like to take it hehe.

A profit is a profit, take advantage of it like Makks says.

Nope. Its illegal to give to a higher player. Thats called pushing. Pulling is allowed for in hour of mine production per day to a lower player however...

Id call it paranoia.
Follow the basic rules of zorg.
1. Dont be profitable.
2. Dont be a douche.
3. Above all else, do not combine the first two rules.
