This not the US govt and hallu is definitely not Obama... but many entities/governments/organizations have a PR person to deal with the community and help keep the lines of communication open. I know you know that online spaceships is big enough that 1 person can not possibly do everything. Maintaining the server, updating bots, trying to keep the game entertaining for newbies/vets alike, fixing problems, etc etc. All for absolutely zero pay. For a free game. Subspace is pretty f'in cool I think.
