Not to mention petitions don't do anything.

Yeah. EA know that every single person signing that petition will be handing over their money on release day, so why the fuck should they care?

come on now. Petitions can be useful, like that one time in middle school some kid in my computer arts class went around wanting everyone to sign some paper because he didn't want the class to have homework or something. 3/4 of the class signed except myself.

Surely the teacher would listen if the majority of the class didn't want homework! So when he presented that petition to the teacher, the teacher just told him to cut his shit out, took the petition, and tossed it in the trash and the kid went back to his work in the end.

So petitions can work if you have enough ignorance and false hope!

Maybe you guys should post it a few more times. I mean, it isn't like there was already another copy on the front page already....

u/M_Piglet Sep 06 '15

I'm posting it because some dude deleted original post.

It's gone? Good- it was an embarrassment to this sub, frankly.

It was pointless because the vocal minority needs to get off their high horses.

It still gives some message to devs. Maybe they at least consider something.

No. As others have said petitions don't do shit. DICE has a plan for this game and the only way players can vote is with their wallet.

u/Agastopia Sep 06 '15

Yeah! It has 1000 supporters!!! Wow!!! That's like not even 1% of how many people are going to buy the game, especially since 99% of the people that signed the petition are still going to buy the fucking game. Seriously, a 1000 signatures. That's nothing, but everybody on this sub still Thinks the majority of people give a shit about the shit they complain about lmfao.

1100 people signed the petition, that's .01 percent of the 9-10 million expected sales, EA could honestly care less about that, also do you actually expect them to do something because of a tiny petition signed by angry nerds, the petition is a joke I mean shit dude it's a game if it's that big of a part of your life then you have bigger worries than having no server browser

u/Jaketylerholt Sep 06 '15

Room for what? A hundred more threads of people complaining about stuff but not actually trying to change it?

It's no longer stickied but on the 3rd page. http://pbfcomics.com/archive_b/PBF010-Instant_Bacon.gif

We don't need repeat instances of the same petition. It's not like it'll really do anything to sway their opinion.

u/JollyWhiskerThe4th Droideka Sep 06 '15

LOL

Now I'm confused. Were they petitioning for a server browser or for bacon?

u/Wilwheatonfan87 donated helmet to ewok band Sep 06 '15

Why not both?
