That's the response I was hoping for. My only critique then is please register a personal account. You can't have a name like SpaceX_Tech and not expect us to take everything you say as something that they would endorse. I'd be appalled if a programmer I employed created an account under my company name, for use of expressing every personal opinion under the sun. I hope you understand the position I'm coming from and that others may be thinking the same thing when reading your comments.
To be honest, I hadn't considered the ramifications of using the company name as part of my username. You make a good point about the potential of being mistaken for representing the company in some official capacity and I will heed your advice and register under a different username.
I'm curious about the etiquette in regards to identifying myself as a SpaceX employee though. I originally joined to relay some of my personal experiences with the company, is it generally a bad idea to identify myself as an employee, or is the bigger issue in your opinion the use of the company name within my username?
Also, if I do identify myself as an employee, do you think it would be wise to maintain two separate accounts, one exclusively for discussing SpaceX/space related matters and another one for other possibly more controversial topics or is it no longer an issue as long as I have a more generic username?
I certainly understand your position and appreciate the advice.
I wouldn't think twice if you had in your profile something like "I work for SpaceX." Good to know, but not the source of your opinions. Your account is young enough that you can gain all that back without the boss in your name. This isn't my first account.
Plus, and I can't speak for everyone, but as a former would-be astronaut, this kind of stuff is tops to me. Info from insiders is always welcome. Consider starting a blog.
Thanks again for the advice, I certainly value your point of view. This is the last time I'll post from this account, I'll go ahead and start a new one at some point.
I appreciate your sentiment in my starting a blog but I don't think I'd have the time to meaningfully contribute to it and I don't feel comfortable enough in my writing ability to do the kind of long form writing I feel such a topic deserves.
There are certainly many would-be astronauts here as well. Thanks for the kind words in support of the work we're doing.
Ps: keep up the good work
