Mod Pip posted "We're intending to launch the poll around early/mid afternoon UK time on Friday. "

It is currently 6 Hours until mid day for Jagex, so atleast another 6 hours

(if this is wrong sorry, not a pro at time zone conversion as i live in Australia.)

For an unofficial ***wer to many of you asking about EoC being taken out of the game completely, well, this just isn't going to happen.

At first I liked EoC. I hated the idea at first, but I tried the Beta. I liked the way everything was placed. Of course, this could just be because I played WoW for 3 years. I could have been familiar to the set up with the buttons and everything. However, while the EoC has sent many players packing, the idea of Runescape 2007 is just wonderful. I know Jagex is a complete money bag corporation at times it seems, but you guys are going way too hard on them. We should be thankful that they are even giving us this opportunity. They want players to come back and experience the game as it once was. Sure this could just be another ploy to raise money, but you have to admit that Jagex has to have SOME of a heart to be bringing such an overdose of Nostalgia back to it's former players.

I hope you all are as excited as I am to play Runescape 2007. I'm expecting there to be over 750,000 votes towards it, knowing the dedication of the veterans in this game.

I purchased a membership last month to give this game one last try. After I found out the game was ruined for me I stopped carrying once and for all. I've been playing since 2003, but the last few years were truly terrible in my opinion. I found this on another site, and was instantly surprised, I instantly thought it would be a troll, or RSPS, but to hear that they will be bringing back RS2 (I think of this as RS3, idc what the official name is) absolutely made me happy. I would not mind paying the extra money for it, or even if they aloud separate payment, it'd be fine with me.

Ideas & Questions

Double/Triple experience for the first month of the new servers, so people, like myself, who played then can get a faster start and don't feel robbed of their hard work-at least as much as they might from a fresh start. A month might be pushing it a bit, but a week or two would be fantastic.

Rares have been a hot topic. Instead of releasing them the old way or just giving them away, maybe you could have contests for them of sorts. By this I mean scavenger hunts, random drops from monsters and resource gathering. Some that can be allocated via a wide range of normal in-game activities. However it's incorporated, it needs to be pulled of randomly and slowly - so no one feels "cheated." Personally I think the funnest way would be a scavenger hunt day or release, with the items located throughout the map, with some in quest areas and other areas with requirements. This is very tricky, but the above idea is the best I can come up with.

There are some updates that obviously pushed people away from rs. I think dead content is the biggest reason (+ SoF). I also think there's content that improves '07-scape. I don't think the addition of Godwars,the dragon pickaxe, (and dwarves) mithril dragons, and the old ancient effigy drop rates were among those reasons. As long as any updates don't belittle my achievements, by making said achievement easier ect, I would probably continuously play as long as I have things to do. I hope I don't come across as arrogant, or like only I know whats best for rs, but a lot of what I have said is why I originally left. The biggest reasons were the EoC changes (making my 400k dung tokens for raiper and cbow niche items) and the disregard for the economy during that time. Anyhow my question is how is new content going to be selected for updates (I know about the polls, but how big of a say will we get) and, will we get any original content

Last thing, I wouldn't worry about bots too much. Random events are lethal^.^
