I'll probably go for something with my name in it. I realize it's lame, and not terribly original, but it is tempting to memorialize myself.

Just delete this. Stupid browser jumping around.

We'll be nearly 10 hours by car, and I doubt I'd be free to fly.

I agree that there should be some way to enforce border control, but it should require active participation by the player. The more I think aboout it, the sillier the use of influence in space is. For sure, if you have one planet in a huge system, all of which is controlled by someone else, that should have some effect. But having Thalans decide to become Yor? It just doesn't seem logical. Think about how long cultural minorities on Earth have endured.

I'll add my vote in support. This is a solid idea, easily implemented. Perhaps there are other things a class 0 planet could do? Serve as a sensor outpost, hold a shipyard that can repair fleets? At any rate, it's silly to have them do nothing for anyone.
