DisarmingBaton5 Posted May 30, 2013 Share Posted May 30, 2013 Have you watched this video? no? watch it. Kirrim could destroy our planet using A GIRDER . Perhaps aiming to meet the kerbals is not such a great idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

karolus10 Posted May 30, 2013 Share Posted May 30, 2013 (edited) I feel great respect for people who must read (assuming that somebody read this) this all petitions and still keep their sanity.EDIT_1:"build death star" petition was pretty hilarious IMHO.https://petitions.whitehouse.gov/response/isnt-petition-response-youre-looking Edited May 30, 2013 by karolus10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stupid_chris Posted May 30, 2013 Share Posted May 30, 2013 I understand the funny part of this, but things like this shouldn't be messed around with. This website is needed for serious things, issues that need to be fixed. Doing this just kills the credibility of everything else. By abusing and using tools at your disposition for the fun of it, they're just going to be removed of your disposition, and when you really need them, you won't have access to them.This isn't even headdesk, this is headSRB.

shadowsutekh Posted May 30, 2013 Share Posted May 30, 2013 Well they actually had to address the Death Star petition.Why don't you just go watch videos of early US rocket testing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iamaphazael Posted May 30, 2013 Share Posted May 30, 2013 Well they actually had to address the Death Star petition.Yes, and while the death star petition was on there getting hundreds of thousands of votes, serious petitions that were there to do things like increase funding for NASA or mandate a mars mission failed to get enough votes to be considered. I found that incredibly sad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OdinYggd Posted May 30, 2013 Share Posted May 30, 2013 Notice: Politics is strictly forbidden on KSP forums. However, I honestly can't take this idea seriously. I just hope that this gets quickly forgotten so as not to waste the government's time, because even if it gets enough votes it is an impossible request. Genetic engineering has not progressed to a point where we could do such a thing, and ethics issues conspire to keep it from reaching that level let alone using it in this way. Best to go find a petition for something beneficial and sign that instead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chobit-389 Posted May 31, 2013 Share Posted May 31, 2013 This is why you can't have nice things.....You want a KSP-esqe spaceprogram?

ShachonianX Posted May 31, 2013 Share Posted May 31, 2013 Kerbin doesn't even exist. Also, a KSP-esque space program would make no sense. We already have NASA. Also, we aren't even close to creating brand new creatures. The only good thing about making Jebediah Kerman IRL would be to have a Jebediah clone army invade enemy countries, with SRBs. Bust still, the Jebediah clone army is definitely never going to happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
