Regarding yesterday's explosion of news over the lack of dedicated servers in Modern Warfare 2, one of the Infinity Ward forum community members sent a direct message to FourZeroTwo via Twitter. FourZeroTwo, IW's community manager, frequents the micro-blogging site and responded quickly.

TriggerPappy, the one who messaged FourZeroTwo for an answer, asked him if he had seen the petition signed by over 70,000 PC gamers and what his response to the chaos was. Unfortunately, FourZeroTwo kept his response short (partially due to the Twitter restrictions), and stated simply:

"fourzerotwo: Definitely made a big wave, and the response will not be ignored. I'll ensure everyone at IW sees the petitions and responses to it."

Maybe a compromise can be met where gamers get the dedicated servers they want. We will keep you updated.

Steve started GamersNexus back when it was just a cool name, and now it's grown into an expansive website with an overwhelming amount of features. He recalls his first difficult decision with GN's direction: "I didn't know whether or not I wanted 'Gamers' to have a possessive apostrophe -- I mean, grammatically it should, but I didn't like it in the name. It was ugly. I also had people who were typing apostrophes into the address bar - sigh. It made sense to just leave it as 'Gamers.'"

First world problems, Steve. First world problems.
