Foraiel, I think they should have separated the 2 games when they FIRST had the chance to do so. They chose not to. It was a choice, only they could make.

IMO, and rest assured it IS only my opinion, they've made astronomically stupid business decisions for YEARS... but they stayed "above water"... and did so ONLY because of the love of this once great game.

THIS game (no not the eoc version), has stood the test of time and kept this company afloat... but it can't, much longer.

It can't, because they've finally ripped the heart out of our game.. for the majority.

In past years, when it's just been a few hundred here or there.. the rest remained and held on tight to their love of the game.. and jagex was able to continue moving (debating whether that movement was "forward" is for another time).

I warned 2 years ago that the time would come that jagex would take "everything" that made this game what it was. That each and every person who simply labeled me as a "whiner", would come upon their own "day".. the day when jagex would do the very same thing to them.

There is no satisfaction in being "right".. and I certainly didn't believe they would "get" so many people in one fell swoop. But, they did.

We can't make jagex's decisions for them.. not even when we can see the train wreck comin'.

I agree. It would have made much more sense to simply separate RS2 and RS3 at the time they wanted to implement such a game changing thing as eoc. It was their CHOICE, and as usual, they.. bungled it

WHY do you ASSUME people only want to get rid of eoc?

WHY do many of the posters here assume that is what will bring the majority of those that quit back?

neither assumption is valid. a large number of people quit over sof, and other updates. I had paid for 8 months membership prior to sof release and thus had a membership that as "active" until a few months ago, but I had quit a lot earlier. Many others were caught in the same trap. Jagex realised they lost players a long time before eoc.
frankly my dear, I couldn't give a dam. never had a river to build one on.

I find it quite annoying that after the EOC, and multiple other updates, that a large portion of the playerbase that WOULD pay for the 07 runescape servers does not want to pay $5 for members on servers they dont want, just to vote on the posibility of getting servers they do want, back.

Allow players to vote if their account either has unlocked a veteran cape. this will allow players who very much deserve to get their voice heard because they are the ones who have quit and want this update and will show a more reasonable playerbase that is willing to pay for said updates.
