Should make it so that accounts registered in 2007 can vote even if F2P, i'm getting people to return to the website as they want to play but when they haven't even visited the website in years they are hesitant about immediately forking over £5.

First off I would like to say I am also a paying member.

"2007 servers sounds good
however if there is a cost i am gonna stick with the current rs

you get enough money out of us already"
------------------------------------------
"I would love to play runescape 2007 at a premium BUT I will NOT play if i have to pay for membership on EoC Im not going to pay for a game that i dont play just to play a game I want to play and pay extra for. NO THANKS "
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Mainit - "Jagex lower the vote goal, your current goals are too high...and it won't happen.

You really think people will keep paying 20$+ dollars each month to play? Even if we reach 250k, we'll need to pay like 12$ each month. People will keep paying for the first couple of months but it won't continue.

These numbers are more reasonable

50,000
150,000
300,000
500,000"
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Jagex set the goal too high...

*Not all Members will vote.
*Non-Members can't vote.

If we don't AT LEAST reach 500k, I, with many other players will not even bother playing it."
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Embrio2 - "Jagex new it wouldn't get past 250k win win situation for them ill pay $10 no way I'm paying $20 to play 2007scape"
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"It's really good that you're bringing in 2007 servers but come on the number of votes for certain levels are unrealistic... It should be something like;

Level 1- 50k

Level 2- 125k

Level 3- 250k

Level 4- 500k"
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"This was set up to fail. Introduce the 2007 servers and charge $5-10 per month to access them.
These goals are unrealistic for a members only poll. Jagex doesn't even have 750k members. There aren't even 100k people online at a time"

"I like how it's members-only, none of us long-since-gone veterans can vote. Are there even 750k members? Whilst I'd love to re-live the golden days, I do n** want to pay for membership for the modern version of the game - it's an insult to what it once was. An additional charge is a definite no-no. I'd happily play it were it free/cheaper than the main game."
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"You would think Jagex would learn their lesson by now. Wouldn't they make more money and have a better customer service relationship, by making the whole retro-server thing be open to all members at no extra cost?

They would be able to keep their current player base, and bring back all the players that previously quit. They could have the best of both worlds. But instead, they're putting limitations on the accessibility based on voter turnout.

There's no way they're going to hit the 500K mark. If they do, FANTASTIC! But if they don't, then the retro-server will be dead in a few months."
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Exactly my thoughts. The tiers are WAY too high. Do you have any idea how many players will play the first month for free and not play again because of an extra membership fee? You have the main server memberships, the SoF scam of buying spins money, Solomens general store scam for money, and now your trying to get even MORE money by luring players back into a private 2007 runescape server that you pay $15 a month for?


$15 a month for 2007, plus $5 a month for the main game, that's $20 a month JUST to play runescape. Are you guys really that pathetic? Do you realize that's $240 a year? Like I said, you are going to lose so many players with the membership costs. No one will pay $240 a year - $20 every single month - to play a video game. We are in a recession in REAL life, we're not multi millionaires like you.
