Elite Dangerous is getting hammered on Reddit with skepticism and negativity. If you have an account please take some time to comment and correct misconceptions. Elite Dangerous still suffers from the first-impression people had when it was released and didn't have much content.
Here is a critical comment from Reddit.
"Overzealous nerfs to smuggling, hauling, courier, and cargo missions serve no one but the '84 slide-rule forum dads. Instead it creates obstacles for new pilots, and disincentives for continuing pilots.
ED likes to measure itself against realism to a degree, so consider this. It makes no sense for most stations/outpost/planetary outpost to exist if they only hand out a mission or two at a time, and for a paltry profit. Were that the social and economic situation, the station would have never been built or would be out of business. Moreover, present day air, sea, rail, and truck haulage companies "stack" missions routinely. UPS or KLM could not make a profit if they only delivered one or a few items to your house or business, before going back for more.
Switching instances, then, was more than not-an-exploit. It was a necessary process for those using their time efficiently, and to make up for an error in how the developers designed the number of available mission and their payouts."

Now argue the substance. FD needs feedback, not fanboys.
