That wasn't actually David Braben answering the "David Braben AMA". It was his agent, Mike Evans.
DBOBE: I am David Braben, co-creator of Elite, creator of Frontier, Frontier II and the upcoming Elite: Dangerous. Welcome to my AMA session. I'm here to talk about the next instalment of the Elite series - Elite: Dangerous, but if you want to try me on other subjects feel free to ask.
Stone-XYZ: Hi, thank you for doing this AMA.
One of the greatest joys in Frontier was the physics. Slingshotting, manual landing, manual docking... this was the core experience for me. Will these continue to be part of the game mechanic?
DBOBE: That would be crap. I don't know why anybody would want to do that, really.
Yorkie: Hi David. Do you envisage adding political parties or figureheads to Elite, for players to follow, love, hate, etc?
DBOBE: Yawn. I'd rather talk about the flight model, to be honest. Like yaw - who needs that? Just roll and pitch, like a real pilot. I can't believe I need to keep explaining this, I really can't.
James T Quirk: There were accusations that Fronter/First Encounters had very basic "mining". Do you plan on doing something less barebones for Elite Dangerous?
DBOBE: It'd be hard to think of anything more barebones than FFE mining, now, wouldn't it! Stating the obvious, I know!
[Just kidding, Mr. Evans!!! Don't set the Thargoids on me in-game.....

How long is this Reddit Private "Blackout" going to last? I honestly dont care one bit about this AMA lady losing her job. People get hired and fired every day and reddit is a very necessary place for this community. By taking your subreddit down, you are doing nothing but hindering your community. I havent launched the game since the subreddit has been down because its a necessity to my gameplay experience. You can almost call it a second screen experience. Reddit is to this game what Galnet is trying to be.
Please, for the love your preferred deity, open the freaking subreddit back up!

I aint part of the any of the Official ED Sub Reddits, but if they've gone dark to show solidarity with /uchooter being removed from reddit it kinda defeats the purpose making a new one and just serves to divide the community.

Merging is kinder, although more time consuming....
Oh merged my bad.

But why not keep an active post on the main page?

It's not discussion about Elite: Dangerous - rather a discussion about the inability to access a discussion forum for Elite: Dangerous on a third party site.

In a way yes but since there's 40000 subscribed ED players there including official FD representatives like Brett and a couple of the devs it would make sense that there's a sticky. Your job will get harder as the day progresses when everyone from different timezones comes here to ask the same question.
