Thank you for your input guys. I hope that this continues to grow as a more useful tool for people. I dont see this being done by a long shot, however I am happy where it is and the growth path it is on.
Coro... to answer your question about why i have 100million resources that you wouldn't craft things for your enemy with 
I have many many static harvesters. And sometimes i get an uber spawn under them but most of the time i dont. For example I have a few harvs on endor where a very nice intrusive ore has hit. Well under my fleet, it is about 24% avg. Now i have heard that this will sell for 8-10cpu in a few weeks. So I have the delima of mining 23% ore worth 8-10 OR i could mine 85% aluminum worth 2.0cpu. In this particular case i am going with the ore because it is high value. However many times the 'uber' spawn i have to pick from is worth 3-5cpu. and if i had to choose between uber 3-5cpu @ 24% and crap grind 2cpu @ 85%, im going to choose the grind everytime.

Now the question, how do you have so many lots... simple answer. I have been playing since launch, started on Eclipse with a char that i made and had no idea what I was doing, just like everyone, but grew attached and liked all the professions he had... a few months later my friend IRL joined the game but started on Sunrunner... So i made a MTKA / CH / M.Pikeman for a 'brawling' character, played that guy for probably 4, 5 months (and still do every now and again). Then came Hound. Hound REALLY started at launch but just to play a little with some 'crafting' and then in December got a re-visit. I started making personal harvs and realized i needed power! So i made a bunch of wind harvs and placed them. Well i thought, 'shoot... i'll have ewach (freind from sunrunner) come and place some to so i can get more." Well from that point (pre-cross-server lot trade era) I thought, " i have about 5-10 friends that could probably help out" and from there i grew.
Not that anyone wanted to hear my story haha, but there it is.
