I'm not particularly interested in that. Except for the fact of nostalgia. And since the first month will be free then I'll have a look. Not gonna spend too much time on it though.

But either way, I voted for my fellow Runescape players who want that and I have to say it'd be pretty selfish of me not to. :) ~Petros, the Doctor

I mean as a valued player of jagex(10year veteran caped) I have to say that many people will return in almost any Pre-EOC state. As a big community of pkers/clan members/old school lovers there will be more and more being recruited back time after time. Many people will agree that at least super weapons like from GodWars is the way to go really. It's gonna be harder as no extremes, curses and familiers which will make Godwars be more of a challenge which is fun for many. I don't know how many people are holding back due to this and extra membership+ fee's such as $15, $5, ect but even the 200k+ we will get which will generated any fee's to get things started, I.E (membership fee X people voted).
Really it should be fair that it should be level 110+ accounts without summoning to be able to vote aswell as membership.

As an old 2007 scape player, HANDS DOWN this was the highlight of the years of playing Runescape. Though Jagex would like to gain attention from veteran players again, the poll is not fair. I can't speak for all, but most old school players cancelled their memberships because Runescape became TO MUCH at one time. and..

Does this mean I can play my character from back in 2007?

No, everyone will start fres*.

^^ The people who want the 2007 servers back (like myself) are not 15 anymore and don't have countless hours to play this game. Most of us have moved on and started life in the real world, but would still like to enjoy a old game memory. Old f2p wildy was the best. I don't want to start over again and I assure you I won't. Jagex --- maybe do the same thing when you had Runescape 1 and the option to transfer your account to Runescape 2...

Even though Runescape is a IRL business and has to support it's funds somehow, you'd think they'd have some marketing strategies to start attracting people again and not push them away with the idea that you have to PAY to vote. I'd love to vote and pay for membership if the old 2007 servers came back. But I am not going to pay to vote and just wait for something I will have to pay for more in the end.


Guess we'll just have to sit back and watch.....

Hi

If any mods could answer this question for me

If I pay for membership and vote you said that we would get the first month free
What happens if my membership has ran out by that time is it still going to be first month free?

This should be a seperate service on it's own. We shouldn't have to pay for the one service to get access to another service. They should be completely seperate payments.

I wouldn't care if it was anywhere between $5.00 and $15.00, but I only want to pay for 2007 RuneScape, not both. Why should we pay for a service we have no intentions on playing, if we wanted to play ****, then we'd pay for both.

It'd be like if you bought an internet service for $39.99 and only had intentions of using the internet, but before you can pay for just the internet. You are told you must pay for the $79.99 cable service first. You are more than welcome to only pay for cable service, but if you want internet service you must pay for cable service first. Why should this person pay for cable when they have no intentions of watching television. This requirement should be removed as it has no real reason behind it to stay implemented.

I will not make this account a member to vote. Until I see this change implemented. This is how I stand regardless of what anyone think's. Money isn't the issue, it's how they aren't implementing this correctly.
