FDev in a Nutshell

This is off topic, but is there some association with Elite and Ponies? The reason I ask is because I notice so many people in Elite discords use pony avatars. Is there a story to it?

MLP avatars are mostly used by folks who enjoy the show.

Most of the time they're used as flamebait and to force a reaction like yours just to respond along the lines of:
It gives people an excuse to judge, based on their insecurities and personal complexes.
Remember, aggressive judgment is often a projection of inner conflict.

Haven't noticed something like this on this forum so it might be the former in most cases.
 
I need a bit of context here. Who is the person on the left? Being completely Twitch-illiterate, is this a meme-like mashup of two different streams?

What is MLP?
 
Boo! :D

Uhm. Anyway. So... procedural generation sometimes uses the same syntax in mission descriptions.
And?
It's like complaining that stellar forge sometimes uses the same colour for creating planets. Oh wait...

The person on the left is Bo, a community content manager at Frontier Developments, she usually plays Planet Coaster but sometimes she'll join Ed Lewis (on the right) to play some ED. This took place on the FrontierDevelopments Twitch channel, where Frontier employees will often play the companys games.
So this is only one stream, raw footage clipped by a user.

Using the forums for information is hand-holding and easy mode, and is punishable by death. :)

You will be banned from the new Beyond forum for making sensible suggestions, which have been going since the DDF. :)

So I shouldn't hold my breath for a "New Discussions" button and forum feed in the cockpit with Beyond? :cool:
 
Sadly I know many people who stopped playing Elite years ago, yet they keep plaguing forums with their salty fingers.

It's weird because in the space sim genre, players feel like the must pick a side and trashtalk the other one...
reminds me of the console war.
