Petition that needs help

Hello everyone!

I have just written up a petition asking the FCC to encourage Internet service providers to expand their Broadband networks to more customers, and I would deeply appreciate if anyone who believes in this cause signs it. Hopefully with a good number of signatures, internet companys will understand that it is a GOOD investment to expand their networks.
Thank you for your support or critism toward this petition!!!

You do realize that in latin "Petition Online" translates to "Ignore this", right?

It also means "bite me" in Chinese when written backwards after translation :(

Once Petition Online made petitions mass-producible, they suddenly lost all meaning.

Believe I speak (Well actually write) Latin and it add a 'us' to the end and it pretty much means what Jeramyu said.

Really?
Eh good point.
I honestly thought that you were just trying to ruin my good mood :(
But I'll believe you, since I don't know Latin(or any other language).

I see where your coming from Jeramyu, but this is kinda my last hope :(
Every other thing I have tried to get companys to get BB into other areas hasn't really succeeded, so I suppose this came in as a last resort.

Once again, I am sorry for being a smartarse, hope you shall forgive my stupidness. I also suppose you could delete post if you wanted, since I guess that this petition won't help, since what you said makes sense and whatnot.

Have a good day!

Come on, 'Petitionus Onlineus' is not Latin.

'Ignore this' would be closer to something like 'hoc dissimulo', and even that's not quite right. Someone on here speaks better latin than I do, wait for them.

When will people learn that a million people can sign an online petition, but it'll still never work...?

Shh, nobody's meant to notice I couldn't be bothered typing a sensical sentence. It's really hot here.
