Im not trying to flame you guys just simply get you to think a bit, i will not be voting for this because i won't be playing this. It doesn't bother me if you guys want to pay extra to play an old game GO FOR IT. But its a little bit dishonest to say this is going to bring all the players that have ever quit back to runescape to *tart over in a game that won't be updated with any new content. I persoonally believe that by time this game could even be viable most people will have gotten frustrated and quit already.

I believe this is a huge mistake on jagex part, you guys that want this "old" game don't even know what you really want, thus all the comments about rares gwd and ge for a few examples. There is always going to be a part of the "community" that doesnt like this update or that one. There is a HUGE difference in starting over in a viable game and EVERYONE starting over in a 6 year old game that will not be updated.

This forumn proves that this won't satisfy even though one who don't know what they actually want...if that makes sense :D

The game must change, if it didn't it would most certainly die, might still die with jagex continually pulling these kinds of "stunts". Classic has never been viable, same posts and reasoning were given then. This is a brilliant marketing scheme though :D

This is great! It's set before the G.E so people wouldn't really have a need to bot, as they'll find it really hard to sell their items. I can't wait to begin mining rune deep within the wilderness then returning to the Varrock Bank Vault and selling it to the highest bidder. But I think people who played during or prior to 2007 should be able to vote, or at least get some perks, just because they've been playing for so long.
Thanks for listening Jagex!

I just wanna chime in here and highlight that we have a full 2 weeks of voting time, magic may happen.

I personally wont be voting unless we approach the 250k mark because I couldn't realistically say I'd play old RS2 for $20 a month, it simply isn't an option financially as a college student. (as much as i wish it was! selling d [] 1.2m!)

READ! I do not agree with the terms of voting at all. You are saying we are witchs and to prove ourselves jump off a cliff. I dont play runescape, i dont even think runescape is alive anymore somthing called EOC has taken over. I think you as a game have failed the players of runescape and have damaged your reputation. I started playing this game in 2005-2006 and i have to agree with nealy all players it was the best years of my gaming life, but i do not want to pay for a game that does not want what the community wants.
I would gladly pay for a version of runescape that was befor EOC but around the time befor SOF was added. I hope this game will crash and burn as it has been digging a hole and expecting us to pull it out after its done. Well what is the point? You expect me to pay and support a game that wont help itself. Us players are the building blocks and you refuse to let us build this game. One person had his word for the wildy to be removed and he got it, then what happend? It came back and so did its players. You are trying to do the same thing but in the wrong way. I give up with you and i hope everyone else does to, you money greedy *****.

"Who needs rares?

only the reedy do"

---------------------------

Because they've been a part of runescape since the classic days.

It should be like going back in time to 2007, we should have our 2007 stats, items, like it was then.

If they have backup data of 2007, then its logical they would have this.

Not everyone will pay 20 dollars extra to start over at level 3.

Let's do it, but lets do it right.
