As awesome as it would be to meet intelligent aliens (and shock humanity by dating one, lol) it's not worth a probable intergalactic nuclear war. Human's aren't tolerant, even if other organisms would be; we'd nuke the s**t out of intelligent life in no time flat. An empty planet, on the other hand, can just be used to solve the population problem for a few more thousand years.
Bit paranoid aren't we?
