Unawareness was one problem with the EoC "poll"...So, some sloutions for this poll could be...

-Have a pop-up in game such as the ones for squeal and SGS
-A quick message in the chatbox upon login such as how they show the dates til when the valentine hearts are avialable.
- Show it in lobby such as where they are currently showing the new slayer tower and the valentine hearts

At first I was overjoyed, Jagex have finally listened to their players, but now... :(

Everyone has to start a fresh
There will be no rares released into the game and if they are, they will be meaningless
Based on the current vote count we're going to get the servers back with lots of glitches and bugs and never receive fixes for them
It's going to cost quite a bit, over £8 a month + standard susbscription = £13+ a month
£13 a month * 12 = £146 for a year of it per person
£146 to start from scratch and to have no gwd, no summoning, no dunge.
ALSO, 2 NEW SKILLS BEING RELEASED THIS YEAR
I'm actually dreading that update :(

@ostrich

You guys asked for '06 servers, that entales only having what was available at the time. They've given you '07 servers. If that means you have no summoning and no gwd then tough. Play the main game to enjoy those benefits. You can never win with children like you.

Jagex, I have an argument why you should make f2p servers anyway.

If you want to make this a longer than a few months project, f2p is inevitable. With possibly increased membership fees and a fresh start, not many players will stick around for long, making you less profit and killing the game pretty fast.
The solution is: f2p servers. But how? Well, if you think about it, not many of us payed for membership as we were level 3. The point is that if you let the players train their skills and let them get a hang on the game for free, they will more probably buy membership and stay because of their skills. Im pretty sure that you are more excited to buy membership when you have decent levels than waste it killing goblins. That means more long-term profit. And also makes your player base respect you a bit more.

(Even though Im a f2p now, I will probably buy member and try the 2007 server out. But as with most people, my interest will die off quickly and I wont renew my membership. So please Jagex, consider this.)

I am one of the 'good old days' players and even though I'm 5/6 years older and have a totally different life and responsibilities, I will still make sure I make time for it so I can play RS like I used to.

Thanks Jagex, I am so glad to be coming back soon!
