We the united members of Jazz2Online have banded together to write a request to ask you become involved in the potential making of Jazz Jackrabbit 3.
We know you may be tired of working on it, but we at J2O are waiting patiently and eagerly to see your work. We want you to know that Jazz Jackrabbit has in no way died out and is still popular as ever. Another game would only fuel that fire, which can’t be bad for Jazz. We appreciate all that you and Epic Games have done to create the JJ universe, and respectfully maintain that you have every right to just say “no” to our petition.
You may be asking yourself right now “what’re they up to, and why haven’t more people signed this?”. These are, of course, valid questions. Only a handful of people HAVE actually signed this petition, and still many more HAVEN’T done so. It is their right to abstain from supporting this, in fact it just proves that J2O is not some big narrow-minded faction. We believe that the mean green hare still does hold some small place in our lives, but some disagree about just where that part is. And why shouldn’t they?
We may not all agree to sign this petition, but the fact that it has survived this long shows us that maybe JJ3 COULD have a future. Indeed, many people did not sign this because they felt it wouldn’t do any good. Will it do any good? It doesn’t matter that the last game or two in the Jazz universe didn’t do so well. Those were different. And in fact, we believe that if you conduct a new survey, you will find out just how well-loved and successful Jazz really has been. In our book, it was not a flop. It’s among the best out here yet. We want JJ3 to continue, and are ready and willing to aid in the cause. We declare that the insatiable desire for a new Jazz game is tremendous, and we wish to see it come to pass.
We feel the need for new material, something to grab us. In other words, we don’t want a cheap shoddy work of crud. We want the real deal, the very best Epic has to offer Jazz Jackrabbit. Please satisfy that desire. We are in no way attempting to sound ungrateful or greedy, but we just don’t want a cheap 2$ copy of a fangame. Not that fangames are bad. We know that if you do decide to do it, you will surely give it your best go, and we trust that you will give any such projects your best judgement, whether positive or negative, and respect whatever decision you may make.
To this end, we have gotten as many J2O members [who share this view] as we can to sign the end of this petition. Please do not ignore us. Make us proud to be Jazz Jackrabbit lovers! We are forever indebted to you for creating Jazz, and for [possibly] continuing his legacy.

Eat your lima beans, Johnny.
This needs to be on the front page. Please.
This is the worst petition I’ve ever read.
Of course it stinks!
You’re welcome to revise it if you wish to.
I simply felt the need to wake J2O up to the possibility of something to do about JJ3 besides sitting on their hands.
The problem is, we can not do anything about it.
Anyway I’ve already explained my thoughts about this to you in my PM.
The power of persuasion, my friend, the power of persuasion….
you are an imbecile.
?!?!?
I wanna !
PT32. You are the biggest JJ2 nub in the world. I rate this petiition: 0/10. Go on, go play with your Barbie dolls.
Hmm. Cliffy B is a bit tied up with GOW to care about this? :\
wow M Y L e s, there’s no need to be mean. something like that could get you banned.
Hey,i wanna have my name on there.
c.d.31+ Angie: you are on it.
Myles: What the heck?!
Nice joke, mate.
I want JJ3 to live again!
It’s a good idea :)
But, I think, It will get cancelled as every JJ3 project did, but for now, would you write my name there? Thank you..
Yeah put me on that too ! Like PT32 said “the power of persuasion”
@n20osboy, Rishiko, Cobra NF,
As soon as (If indeed ever) the Edit Newspost function is fixed/created, I will add you on the list. Until then, you are on it in spirit.
@Those Who Chose To Be Mean To Me
Thanks, y’all. As always, your condescension is greatly appreciated. I guess it is officially okay to blame a guy for trying. =(
