Let 5 year vets vote, member or not. It's BS enough that I can't vote and the only reason Im not a member is because the game is messed up with eoc and other bs updates the past years. I quit with the new game, and Ill gladly pay membership for the good RS

@John x Galt
from what I have gathered you have to be a member of current RS to be able to play 2007 scape anyway, even thought you have to pay for 2007.

I may be wrong, but from what I have read so far that is what I have seen.

@Dezed, While your point may hold true about you being a part of the current paying members who have the right to this poll, why shouldn't paying members of the past who are currently f2p be allowed to vote? I've contributed years worth of membership to this game in the past, but recent updates have made the game less and less appealing to me. By limiting it to only current members, they cut out a very important part of the polling population. I know that I am certainly not the only person ****idering buying a membership if this is reimplemented, and reimplemented at a reasonable price. While I understand that opening polling to the entire f2p could lead to skewed results, by limiting it to only current members it is also skewing results, in the other direction.

While I do not know for sure what kind of feasible options there are to fix the voting population, I do know that in order to post on these forums as f2p your account needs to meet certain requirements. Whether they were to implement a total level requirement to vote, or to open voting to certain accounts that have been around for a long period of time (like accounts *hat are able to receive the veterans cape), I believe there is a much better way to count the votes in this poll.

@Teked, while it is nice that they would offer a free month of membership when it is released if you purchase it now to vote, I wouldn't say that offsets the potential costs if the membership does end up costing an extra amount on top of the normal membership. While many people are excited by the idea, I can't say the same amount of people are will to shell out 100-200+ in yearly membership fees.

Looks like they put a lot of effort into finding the perfect numbers for each of the tiers. They know the vote will reach over 250,000 votes so that players should feel thankful that they didn't have to pay 15 dollars a month, but it won't reach 500,000 so jagex will get the only thing they care about which is money. The only reason these tactics have gone without consequence for this long is because the target market of this dying game are between the ages of 14 and 18 using their parents money and have developed such a dependency on this game that they will pay ridiculous prices.

I stopped playing the very same day EoC was released and haven't looked back. I heard about this poll from an old friend and of course it interested me as a dedicated player from 2005 up until a few months ago. At first I was excited but that feeling quickly vanished when I realized what was happening.
