"Lol why, Whats the point? So you can shut it down in 2 years when no one plays it. All progress will be lost. Yeah no thanks. Didn't you learn from your mistake of doing Runescape Classic..."

Do you realize how many played during the 07 era?
Do you realize how many played during the RSC?
Figure it out :P

It's mostly going to show who's interested in this server being pushed through. How many people start up members, or even if any active members will support this server. Yeah, you need to pay for membership just to vote...just hope that players with active memberships will hear the plea and be supportive. :|

EDIT: Hmm...a two page jump from where I was on this thread. Awesome. :| I'm a

I disagree that only Members will be able to vote. While I do agree that the main source of Runescape's income is through memberships, the current Members most likely either like the current Runescape, or just don't mind it enough. What about many of the truly old-school players? Many of them probably aren't Members, for various reasons. If it's the old-school Runescape you wish to bring back, then why limit it to the current Members, when there are a lot of veteran players in F2P.

Also, a large number of players are F2P, and just because they aren't Members, they still know the game well enough to know if it's a good idea to re-introduce the old Runescape. In any successful government/society, the laws (in this case, updates), should be impacted by those they will come to affect. If you limit the choice to only the nobility (Members), only the ones who like the game well enough to pay to play will get to have a say, which is unfair to the less fortunate. This is just one of the Enlightenment principals, the one by John Locke, that states that all men are created equally, both socially and politically.

Also, having to pay extra to play an older version of the game? In what sense does that make any sense. The price should be exactly the same as it use to be to play the old Runescape, not 15-10 dollars extra.

I remember the old days, back when I really liked Runescape, which is exactly around the 2007-2008 period, but just because that's when I liked it the most doesn't mean that I'll be willing to pay extra just to play it again.

with rares items i i think they should be giving out randomly to people , or to people who have been playing runescape the longest maybe , or just random then its fair if you get a rare good job if you dont unlucky seems the only allright way to me

I am currently in debate on whether I want to make this account a member or my other account. The other account has my first 99 on it and 2 other better stats lol. But this was my original and the nostalgia hit me hard logging on. I can't wait for the server to be released and I really hope we at least get to level 2 so it will not be *15 a month. Because as much as I want to play $15 is way to high.

Notice how I don't even have the last subscription thingy under my name :D
