"Lastly, I want to add members that do indeed vote for the reinstatement of the service will all get their first month of 'Old School' RuneScape for free regardless of the eventual level achieved therefore those signing up just to vote you will not need to pay twice"

I know ill be voting tomorrow because of this, I also would like to urge all the members that love EOC to also vote for this even if they have no desire to play 07scape. Why? Because YOU will still have the EOC that you want and in the long run of things we (the 07 players) will end up paying for your up dates.

"100 Yellow Phat's - Store Price - 500m
100 Red Phat's - Store Price - 500m
100 Blue Phat's - Store Price -500m
100 White Phat's - Store Price - 500m

250 Santa Hat's - Store Price - 150m
250 Red Halloween Masks - Store Price - 150m
250 Green Halloween Masks - Store Price - 150m
250 Blue Halloween Masks - Store Price - 150m

Once player's earn enough GP to buy said Rare they want from the store, they can and the stock will drop and drop until there is none left to buy and once that happens these items will be classed as "Rare". And the price will start to rise above the starting price that was the store price.

So it'll be based on who works the hardest to obtain the money required to buy said Rare item and that's why I think it would be fair and give players a goal to work towards on the server."

Although this is nicely thought out and I would have almost agreed on this concept, however, I am finding one flaw in this. And it's bots. The ones who will 'work the hardest to obtain the money required' will be the bots. So it has loopholes in it thus will not be 'fair' to the real players etc.

i think this will not be good for the game. Bots will get it first also the fact that rich guys on the main server will buy there stuff on that server soo they can revive it as first so rest cant get it and they will be richs badasses!

Really? Wouldn't this make more sense, to allow players who've spent hours upon hours of effort, to utilize that effort in a nostalgic state via the 2007 servers? Meaning, allowance of "Stat Transferring" server to server. This would open up more capabilities for players of BOTH servers to explore further into BOTH types of game play. Who want's to put that much effort into 07 when 13 may be the next big thing? And Vice Versa. Not to mention who wants to put effort into dying content, and in some peoples eyes, such as mine; EoC, as of now, will be dying content. But hey, the perspective goes both ways.

Speaking from a personal point of view, I'd play the 2007 Servers much more then the EOC, as I'm a competitive gamer. Competition is what EOC lacks; speaking in relation to PvP. Many people have spent years upon years building accounts up, and now, to have to re-do all the Statistics of ones profile, for the return of something they loved?

You're throwing away half of your potential customers.

I for one will not play the old servers anywhere NEAR as much if I have to fully restart my characters stats, from scratch. You should allow the statistics to be exchangeable via bother servers; If people complain about the "fast pace training of EoC to gain benefit on the 07 server" just see it as a chance to advertise your potential main game. I don't understand this current logic. - Giant

If you want the truth, the wilderness has not been the same since it was deleted in the year 2007.

I don't count those level 1 wilderness noobs as Pkers.

you cant drop or spawn new rares... then it wouldnt be a rare

I dont care how they do it but I like to have that ultimate rare item goal to keep me going when the tasks before me look impossible.

lets face it. rares keep us all playing. and hoping.

Here's my opinion (and I know most won't agree) on why rares need to stay in EoC and not be brought into the 2007 server.

1. People only want rare items so they can hoard them and sell them at exaggerated prices. Best example: Christmas Hats.

2. It will be years before they even reach the current street price; even if you do end up obtaining a rare from a drop or which ever method they choose you will not be a instant millionaire.

3. Rares had already been dropped way before 2007, it's not logical for Jagex to bring you a 2007 server and make holiday drops for you that had already happened years before most of you knew this game existed.

Let the rares stay in EoC and enjoy your new fresh start. Don't open Pandora's box again.

You forgot to take into account the EoC which absolutely obliterated all chance of anybody ever wanted to PK, ever. When people voted for the wilderness back in 2011, they wanted the 2007 experience back. Instead they got the 2011 experience, and now they get no experience at all.
