One thing has bugged me about Spore ever since I got it in 2010.
How come NPC empires have planets defended with their multitude of spaceships, while the player doesn't have any spaceships defending their own colonies?
I know this could throw off the balance of the game, but so many other mods already do that. What if there were a way to implement NPC ships of our empire, on our colonies, like the other empires have? It would be cool to see battles happening between an enemy empire and ours, without the player having to do all the work. Pirate attacks could also be easily taken care of. (Grox battles would still be quite difficult without the player's help though).
If this is possible, I would like to request a modification that does just that.
I am not experienced with gameplay modding, as I only make graphical content for the game.

Please keep in mind that if your request is not granted immediately, that doesn't mean it never will be. Sooner or later, someone may well pop in and try to make it happen. Patience is a virtue. Just...don't go around begging and annoying people over it.
Additionally, be aware that while the Spore ModAPI has empowered mod developers like never before, our ability to add "new" functionality still has its limits, so if there's nothing in Spore that can already do it, we may not be able to either. Nothing is lost in asking, but don't get your hopes up, especially not for anything really big.
