Well many of us 'old school loyal players' knew you'd do this as you knew that
500-750k votes was unachieveable and you would make a 'gesture' otherwise
called butt licking to make up for the failed EOC, SOF cash for gold updates
ect that caused so much angry reaction towards you by MMG.
Do you really believe they did this 6 months gesture was out of the goodness
of their heart c'mon wise up,they'll let you build your stats up then bang you
with hefty fee to 'maintain and update it' or lack of players blah blah.
Another money spinner to get members to join just to vote but won't pay
your high fees to play 2007.
You can fool some of the people all of the time, and all of the people some of the time, but you can not fool all of the people all of the time.
Bring back RS NOV 2012 PRE EOC which you claim to have thrown away then
watch your membership grow back as i along with other vets will or have quit
when current subscription expies. I will not and won't lose all my stats ect to
pay you to make me a lvl 3,if i wanted to i would make a new account not have
one forced on me i don't have the time i used to have,this account has been built
up gradually over 7 years not by playing 24/7 i won't play EOC much longer.RIP RS. .And now the end is near its time to raise the final curtain.
Regrets i have a few, but i did it my way.

Going to have to agree with Shaun. Although for me it's not EoC that I hate so much, it's the general micro-transactions and pay to win attitude of the game now. I don't like EoC, but it's not a game breaker for me. However, micro transactions certainly are.
:O

Jagex, let me start by telling that you've done a great job. You've attracted a lot of the retired players (including me) back to the game that we once loved. I feel you've also made an absolutely fantastic compromise by removing the additional fee, but not giving us the update team. It won't be a surprise to you that many players were actually scared to death by this dedicated team. The anti-bot measures are an absolute must and I'm very happy to see that you agree on this one.

I'm really interested to see what the future will bring us. How will OSRS's community develop? Will we expand? Will we shrink as nostalgia reduces? We shall see. I'm definitely hoping - and expecting - that we'll be growing on a daily basis.

Extra fee is the most stupid thing they are doing... How about letting people decide what game to play.. Pay 5€ and u get to play rs07 not the new rs.. dont even want to call that game rs anymore. But they must add free worlds or this game will die out.

While I am not a fan of the 07 servers and find EOC an easy pill to swallow, despite still having some rough edges that still need some tweaking to get everything straight I guess it is nice that the people who refuse to adapt can go and make an account on the 07 servers. I find it quite annoying how many people essentially want rs pre eoc combat wise and cant even be happy with the fact the 07 server has been released. If eoc killed your pleasure of RS entirely, you obviously have either 1) have not taken the time to truly give it a chance or 2) don't know how to play... Yes Eoc has pretty well screwed up pvp, I will agree, it needs some work to get it decent again. But as far as pvm, leveling, etc goes, I can not see the complaint, other than now you have to interact for combat unless you choose to be lazy and use momentum, mind you interacting gives better xp and speed.

Anyways, all bitching and moaning aside It will be interesting to see how the 07 server does in the long term. I find it humorous you have extended the free play for rs members and are going to throw in a support team, I mean realistically who would play a game that isnt going to have any kind of team doing some sorts of adjustments, as far as the fee quit ******* whining. all you eoc haters just pay for 07 and N O T eoc... and it will be like you only had an eoc account... except you will be on 07 instead. Guess its only a matter of time now. I am looking forward to TWW. Hope the 07 server is everything the people who cant adapt to eoc hoped for, or at least that they can live with it, since eoc is here to stay.

"If eoc killed your pleasure of RS entirely, you obviously have either 1) have not taken the time to truly give it a chance or 2) don't know how to play"

Or 3) Have spent as long playing hotkey MMOs as you have playing RuneScape (WoW, Everquest, Guild Wars), and appreciated that RuneScape was something different & unique, but now see it as a poor imitation of an already outdated combat model?

Really now, to say everyone hasn't given it a chance or doesn't know how to play is laughable...
