I think it's funny that people think the vote actually matters.

Jagex is going to make the results be that there is no extra membership fees and they are just hoping that people that "Quit" will come back to play the 2007 version exclusively.

@ Fuse Broken.

I highly disbelieve that it wouldn't effect the main game if it reached higher levels of votes. Constant updates, full antibot support etc will take resources. Those said resources could be used in the main game, or speeding something up such as updates or quests.

Them saying it won't does not make it true.

For adding the discontinued items into the game, here are some ideas:
1) Give them to accounts that were created before Aug. 2007.
2) Sell them in the general store for the first few weeks. (I think this is how the private servers did it)
3) Have them be a very rare drop for the first few months of "07scape"

Also, a lot of people were complaining about losing all the hard work they put into their accounts. If you made an icon that players could put next to their names based on their achievements in current runescape (ex. a number representing how many 99's they have) the players would feel more recognised for their previous acheivements. This would not change the actual gameplay at all, but it would give players a feeling that their previous work was not a waste.

Thanks

This is absolutely amazing, and proves very well that Jagex is listening to us veterans. :)

You definitely got my vote. I would seriously pay $50/month to play the old servers if need be.

To all the people that say we need to stop living the past and move forward; I actually don't 'live' in the past, however playing these old servers would be great nostalgia.

However, the real problem is the fact a lot of veterans including myself think the current game is far too easy. Money is so easy to get, trading, leveling, & everything else is effortless compared to the old RS.

I want to play the game when 99's meant something, no GE, 300k/hr was good, etc.

I also LOVE the idea of starting from scratch. :)

Hopefully we get enough votes!

@1hp owns you: That's not true at all, it completely depends on how you deliver the rares. Of course just randomly dropping a few hundred/thousand rare items into the game is going to break the economy. That's because just dropped them in is a terrible way of handling it. Ideally the rares should be put in as they were originally. For example, the first Christmas after 2007 is reinstated should be the exact same event that occurred in 2001 where Party Hats and Christmas crackers came into the game, then pretty much everyone would gain the item and they would only become 'rare' as time passes, so because they came in through an event allowing everyone to get them, they would not be rare but rather common and would become rare just like they did in the original game.
