A Petition section for gaming

**claud3** · 02-08-2010

I would like a petition section for gaming to be set up. The reason why is so we can petition things to be put in game and things to be added.

Like i petition for old school games to get achievements when you dowload them of buy them

I would like this to happen

Why? Chances of it working are pretty bad...

Videogame petition threads, and videogame petitions themselves, have always failed.

The forum just doesn't need it, in my opinion. Not only will it not be very active to license its own section on the forums, but those type of threads just never really ended on a good note. I don't expect it to be any different now.

ok. But if we really want something in a game then people will type for it

OK but then who sends it to the developer(s)?

**claud3** · 02-08-2010

I will e-mail them. And i will get others to do so

Make a petition for a petition forum, get a thousand people to sign it, and nothing will be done

**squirrelbo1** · 02-08-2010

there were nearly a million signatures on the we want dedicated servers for mw2 on pc, **** all happened.

**claud3** · 02-09-2010

Ok its a no. I was thinking out loud

**Gilly3** · 02-09-2010

so you want a sub section for petitions to game developers? why on earth would we need a sub forum, its not like there are that many petitions going around.

**claud3** · 02-09-2010

Gilly3. I understand its a bad idea

so i am not pressing this anymore. Just close the thread

Sorry for the thread

Why don't you just go to petition online and make threads on a case by case basis, then send it off yourself?

Not that anything will happen. The reason online petitions rarely accomplish anything is that there's no personal information recorded outside of a name and email. The "signatures" are easily inflated by a single person if desired. There's no reason for anyone to take them seriously.

This is especially true for court cases.

well its the only option. Since its hard to travel to all of you to sign it or them

I understand that, but that's beside the point.

You can understand why the results of online petitions are rarely trusted, right?

**claud3** · 02-10-2010

Yes. But you are all honest People on here and i trust you all. So it might work

**MjW** · 02-10-2010

Meh. I think traditional letters are a better and more effective way to protest. You get a petition signed by 5000 people vs you get 1000 people to actually send a letter to them.
The latter will actually force them to read a couple and pay someone to throw the letters away.

It doesn't matter if YOU trust us :/

**claud3** · 02-11-2010

Ok lets forget all about it lads. Here i will think of a way to get a petition up and running the old fashion way

I want to thank all of you for your honest in-put and comments about this

thanks
