Beside being fools,shortsighted etc I think they believed that they would not recoup the money that was invested in the project. To me that was just plain nonsense

Bah... ITF is past - Now we all should look onwards and wait for the B5Mods and specially B5:IFH - extremely promising - better looking than ITF and the Prequel campaing will be released next month (maybe)

Do you think it would be possible to put pressure on Sierra to reveive the project? There are more than enough people that were realy pissed off when they heard what Sierra did to ITF. We could start a pettition. Don't know how much good it would do but it wouldn't be a bad idea. We already have a decent number of people on this board and i have seen plenty other boards dedicated to B5 that we could contact.

Even if we can't pressure them into doing it, a pettition would show them how much money they could make off of it.
