No offense guys but reposting her deleted tweets on the official forums is probably not doing her any favors. While it provides a nice source of fuel for our rage, I'm sure it's also annoying her employers. Making her boss angry with her for mistakenly revealing a change in her work focus is not going to help anyone.
This. Sarah has been amazing to us. She deleted her tweets. Obviously for a reason. Might be good not to repost them too often.
It's either that or the house's on fire already from another corner, these are the sole 2 reasons I can image why FD pulled the plug on a project that was already near to its closing.
Employers are always saying that they want developers who have 'excellent communication skills' and who have good customer facing skills.
Well, Sarah can use this forum as concrete evidence for that requirement.
But the other side of the coin is that her twitter feed regarding her employment with FD could well be used against her.
Indeed, FD's own Code of Conduct for employees may have something to say about what they can divulge about their work on any social media etc.
People have to be so careful today; what they say and how they behave.

No, it really isn't.
I'd agree with you, but we're talking about a video game, not NATOs plans for deploying cruise missiles in Eastern Europe. I know the games industry these days like to keep things very close to their chest and keep everything quiet as if they're working for the defense department, but that's unnecessary and frankly rather condescending of them. They (Frontier) can talk to us about ideas they have for the game, and frankly it'd be better if they did this - we wouldn't end up with (sorry FDev) complete crap like Powerplay or SCBs otherwise.
Perhaps SJA did break their communication policy by actually communicating, listening and talking with us on a human level. What was the result? The only thing most people actually liked about 1.3 was the improved AI (along with visual and graphical improvements). All the other stuff, powerplay etc, turned out to be a waste of time.
Like any company they can have any policy they want. Just because they have the right to do so doesn't mean they're right to do so.
They really need to say something about this.
Yes, she was a good presence in the forums from FD, but all the rest is speculation.
Never heard of disruptive talent? You're a terrible manager!
To be fair, she should just quit instead of being shoved around by the Cretins making the decisions at FD (or having books thrown at her by them).

I didn't want to go through every page of that thread, but are you saying that she no longer has any posts in that thread? So they're retroactively censoring her? That would be ... well ...
Maybe they did, and there is an office sweepstake to see how many pages it gets to in 24 hours....
There must be reasons, we don't know them, we probably never will, we don't work for FD. As long as we all get to keep on playing Internet Spaceships....
This.
PP is complete and utter garbage. Nobody asked for it, nobody expected it, and nobody wanted it. But they did want a better AI.
That is jumping to conclusions. It is just as likely that she deleted them herself.
So its ok to get upset over sports or something like that?
elite has a deep personal meaning to me , so its not only part of my life but part of human history.
the lack of the upcoming AI patch scares me a lot
I like PP I dont care about CQC but I would be willing to lose PP and CQC just for an combat AI update

Fair enough- she may have done it herself. I just hope it was of her own volition.
