"the people who oppose this think it's unfair to have our current stats transferred, and that's because they aren't happy with their accounts and just want people to start fresh like them."

I don't want my bank or stats from 2013. You could hardly begin to say that piece with a straight face if only you realized how dumb it sounds. This is exactly why attempting to invoke a silent majority or generalizing everyone who wants something to be a certain thing is fail. I wouldn't mind everyone being rolled back to 2007 bank and all. That I would be fine with but you shouldn't be able to take cheaply earned xp over the last few years into a place where it isn't so easily earned.

I whole heartedly agree with the fresh start scheme. Just think. There will be no Zezima . You are free to forge a new destiny for your characters name. You could be the next Zezima the next Su0mi. This is thoroughly exciting.

Anyone else slightly bummed that the old account creation system won't be in effect?

I want to make a completely fresh account, but you need to sign-up via e-mail in order to do it. I truly miss the simple "make a name and log in with it" system.

I think a good middle ground for the people wanting a fresh start and people wanting to keep their stats would be a few weeks with a massive xp bonus at the start of the new servers. That way everyone would start fresh but the grind wouldn't really be much of a grind at first for those players who dread starting over because it will take too long.

@kruT

If you remember, PC (pest control) was THE EASIEST method to level up back before 2007 when they made it more complex, so the statement you just said about "you shouldn't be able to take cheaply earned xp over the last few years into a place where it isn't so easily earned" is irrevelant. I was not asking for our banks to be transfer, but only our stats. and if that's not possible then maybe the stats we had in 2007.
most of us don't have infinite amount of time like it seems you do right now.
we may had it back then but certainly not now, that's why I'm asking for a stat transfer.

We already broke 50k votes it is guaranteed to come back. Signing up to vote now just allows you to prepay for the first month of 07scape for a MASSIVELY reduced price. Seriously if you know anyone that will be interested tell them. Not only is it a super cheap 1 month but ALSO a way of ensuring that the monthly price is cheaper down the line.

This build of 07 comes with the nerfed PC ~ 1 month before this build it was nerfed IIRC but it wasn't the easiest just the fastest there's been so many ways of afking combat over the years its sort of embarrassing

"recent votes------
12:25 ET -142,682
1:25 ET- 143,693

1010 votes in 1 hour
294 hours left to vote

only 360 votes/hr needed for 250k
but 1221 votes/hr needed for 500k"
=======================

Except for the fact the rates slow down. I think we might get the 250k, but barely. And anyone seriously thinking about 5-750k, forget about that. There ain't even that many people playing I bet.

The only way the 5-750k ever could happen would be if all the vets magically came back, or if the bots thought they could make profit with the 2007 servers, made accounts and voted.
=======================

My point is that right now the votes are coming in at about 1k/hr still. the avarage votes per hour needed for 250k is ~350/hr. Even if the votes/hr steadily decrease it will still be above 350/hr which will drop aswell as the votes/hr stay above 350.
