Was there a potion delay on the 10th of August?
Many players will remember this, and the delay on drinkin potions was fun because it would be a risk to drink a prayer potion or not when low hp

Basically you couldn't eat and drink a potion at the same time. So no shark-brew comobos either :)

Without the rares in the game, you're not going to see motivation for skilling or pvp (staking). Runecrafting was in my opinion the hardest skill to lvl because it was the most boring****** players who leveled this to 99 did so to make money to buy rares. When I used to stake back then, my only goal in the game at one point was to try an get a purple partyhat. Not to mention the possibility that if you're luckier then hell you might find an overconfident owner of a phat in the wild. Those stories drove me back then. PVP and the pursuit of incredible wealth.

For rares I think they should introduce them slowly. Doing so by holiday drops would just destroy their market. The bes* thing they can do to imitate how it was is to have a mod, or vendor sell them for the prices they were around that time. If memory serves me right, a purple was about 90m in 2007. So have a vendor sell a purple for 90m. Have this method in place until the amount of phats in game hits similar levels as back then, then remove the means of aquiring them.

back then 2m was about how much whips were, it was a lot of money to most people. so 90m was no small feat. The hats would likely be acquired by stakers and runecrafters and horded by them. Which they were anyways. So I think that is probably the best method for reintroducing rares.

I love this idea and would love the pre eoc runescape back but i don't think it should be that far back. I think it it should be early 2012 before the eoc.

I like the dungeoneering part and the item binds update. And chaotics
I like the hp, prayer, run energy display next to the minimap which wasn't around in 2007. And summoning wasn't around in 2007
I like the nex armor the gano and storm of armadyl update, also after 2007 and polypore
I like the hybrid armour from minigames. new barrow Akinese set.
I like the dragon defender, dragon claws, korasi, armadyl crossbow, kiln cape, sara ammys and all the the stuff after 2007- 2012 before the eoc
i also like the grand exchange, way easier and faster to get items needed for treasure trails.
Also max hp was 99 in 2007 not 990
The new Quests, Nomad, The Elite void, Nex, QBD, the diversion and distractions, Corporal Beast, bolas in castle wars, PVP armour and weapons/ revenants, extreme potions/ overloads, etc are all, after 2007.
Also I would love to see the dominion tower gloves back to their former uses, the gloves now in the eoc sucks and is not even worth getting anymore.

All these things I said was not around in 2007 so we want a early 2012scape not 2007

We don't want a 2007scape even though it is still better than the eoc, We want a pre-eoc scape like early 2012 before the eoc update.

EDIT: the majority of ppl talking about 2006scape was talking about a private server called 2006scape. But they don't want a server that far back, they just want a pre-EOC server. Most ppl talking about the 2006scape didn't even play in 2006.

I hate the eoc
