Maybe they don't see the point in signing a petition that has zero chance of going anywhere.
Before you start yelling at me or calling me names, I did sign it.
Petition to Bioware and Atari to re-instate the master server and gamespy services.

well sorry but 104 supporters is nothing... dont know why so many people just dont care...even the oldschool guys who made there names trough it or used it as a base to jump into the dev scene give a yup you know. And if you come by and read this yes you are all Guilty by sell out!!! thats what you are
I have no clue what you are trying to say here Baba, but if you are calling me, or anyone else who signed this petition a sell out I would ask you, what the hell are you talking about??? I have no financial gain from this. The server I run makes no money from it.
All I would like to see is the integrity of this amazing game, and it's incredible artistic potential (both for single player mods and online mods [e.g. PWs] specifically related to these issues) preserved.

Pretty sure baba yaga is calling out the ex-modders turned Bioware staff. You really need to stop taking offense so easily.

My apologies Baba, if I misinterpreted what you meant. BTW I am sure if I had started this petition relatively soon after the MS was shut down it would have 10x the signers. But it’s not the volume of signers to the petition that is important. What is important, is at least we are voicing our displeasure at the losses of these built in services. To just do nothing and look the other way, just didn’t sit right with me (and apparently 100+ other people.

Dear everyone,
I am declaring this petition a defeat. Bringing back the Masterserver, and Gamespy service is almost certainly not going to happen. But I do believe that the NWN 1 community has come up with, albeit not perfect, but sufficient alternatives to these losses of services/functionality, and furthermore Bioware has done their part in informing the community about the situation, and disseminating the information regarding the alternatives that exist.
I want to thank the community who came up with the work arounds, the players who voiced their heartfelt opinions and sadness at the loss of these services, and Bioware for not abandoning us and for giving us a show of good faith by doing their part to inform people about the current state of things.
Even though this petition did not have it’s original intended effect (full restoration of these features), I consider it a victory in the sense that it affected positive change within our community, and I want to thank you all again for being involved. We had over 230 voices speak up, and had this been started when we first lost the masterserver I have no doubt it would have been 10x or more that. Everyone should be proud for their participation in this grass roots activism, and happy it resulted in something positive, and grateful to those who made it happen (first and foremost the community members who came up with the alternatives.)
Love and respect to you all.
Sincerely,
Lazarus Magni
