On the bright side, these will make for a nasty surprise the first time an enemy tries to attack that world. This planet defense trick generally only works once against a human opponent.

The reverse order Messages can be frustrating when you first encounter it, but you get used to it surprisingly quickly. It has the advantage that you don't have to scroll all the way down the thread to find the first post you haven't read, especially once the thread goes over one page.

Cap'n Q
My first mod! Hypermaze quadrant
The most merciful thing in the world, I think, is the inability of the
human mind to correlate all of its contents. We live on a placid
island of ignorance in the midst of black seas of infinity, and it was
not meant that we should go far. -- HP Lovecraft, "The Call of Cthulhu"
