@ Tyria Mine,
No I think whether this vote was 1 million or 50k it represents a significant portion of the paying player base. I feel more that these types of decisions are rushed and the entirety of the plan has yet to be figured out. I think a more complete plan with an understanding of the long term consequences of something like this needs to be established if it hasn't already.
I am not saying I have an ultimate plan for this because I do not. I leave that to Jagex seeing is how they are the professionals in the business. I think this decision is not one to be lightly taken because it does affect the part of the community that will stick with the main game. I also personally thin that tiers should not have been set beyond the initial 50k one. I think they should judge their business plan based on the demand they observe after say the first month of operating. Very similar to a test market situation.
On a side note:
It is also interesting that the same people attacking others and me are the same people who talk about "the community". Thinking that by going back to the past, raising age limits, or increasing prices will lead to a change in the community is absurd. The community has problems, like it has for a long time, because of how people interact with one another and a general lack of respect.
