What's AMA? It stands for ask me anything, and it'll be interesting to see if Reid is able to answer the slew of questions sure to be forthcoming. The tomfoolery starts at 3:00 p.m. Eastern on December 28th, and the Reddit posting features a few preliminary notes. "The format is simple: ask Mr. Reid a question and he will do his best to respond to as many as possible within his area of expertise; he is not a game designer but still has many interesting things to share about the game," it explains.

@Graill440 This isn't how Reddit AMAs work. You can make an account if you want and ask anything and he will most likely answer it.

You do realize the game only launched 7 days ago, right?
Also :

Yeah, those are all real SWTOR articles within just the last 24 hours...
(And I would've linked 2 more, but I can only link 3 in one post).
....also, you missed an extra "o".

I won't be able to make it, but if someone here can go could you ask this question for me?
What happened to the Armor Appearances that were removed between the 11/11 and 11/25 testing weekends? Why were those appearances replaced; what was the reasoning behind the change? Will those (excellent) appearances be returning to the game soon, or at all?

@stealthrider The problem is that there is going to be too may these "no one gives of shit but me nerd questions." Ask something meaningful, such as guild banks, details about first expansion, etc.

I think that question needs to be asked, but I know it has been sorta answered already. They will/are supposed to be comming back, but no real timetable on when.

@(Unverified) Shhh. Pointing out Massively's flavor of the month, bandwagon writing practices is likely to get you shunned by the regular posters who fully support the practice as long as it's the game they're playing at that particular moment. If it's not then more power to you!
But really, there is no other site on the planet that milks a subject like Massively. Considering the extreme lack of interesting news in the MMORPG world though you can hardly blame them. Still, it makes you wonder if this site is even worth reading each day considering their often microscopic viewpoint on whatever is going to generate views/flamewars.
