Everyone,
When signing the petition please do not use profanity as it undermines the ability of the petition to be taken as seriouslessly as it is intended. I understand that everyone is very angry about this situation but please take the time to write a comment that can be taken in its true context and not as a rant. Thanks for everyone's continued support!

Also, please be aware that when you make your signature you will be asked if you would like to make a donation. This donation is for petition.com, not MCO. While I appreciate the donation offers I would like to wait until I can determine if a larger legal defense fund is warranted. If so, I will post information on how to contribute.

The official petition started by MINIclo and TheScientist can be found **** HERE ****

Mark

Make sure that you receive a confirmation email after you sign. If you don't get the email, you didn't follow the chain of approval to actually post your signature, or you posted an invalid email address! (I made this mistake yesterday afternoon...and have only now managed to figure out and correct my mistake )

Hi, Friends!

I would like to reiterate what Mark stated above: after you sign the petition, you will be asked to make a donation. That donation is for the petition site....NOT for MCO!

You are under no obligation to make a donation to the petition site, but I hope we all realize what an important site it is, and I'm sure there are those of us who will choose to contribute.

Thanks again for your support and your signatures!

Cheers!
Clover

FYI: there seems to be two versions of this petition floating around. The one mentioned here is the larger of the two and seems to have the most steam behind it. I would stick with this version.

Is the other petition the one the MiniPilo started? If so be sure to use the one that we link to from our home page or the Pulse. Thanks!

I just posted a message to 18 different auto-related usenet news groups. We should have car nuts of all stripes on our side and siging the petition before long.

1676. MiniCooperOnline is the most important FREE support and advertizing MINIUSA could ever have. MCO influenced my decision to purchase a 2003 MCS.
