As a long standing member, I support this all the way. I have voted and wouldn't even care how much I have to pay to play the glory days. Just finding out this news is for real brought a tear to my eye. Getting excited just thinking about starting over again on this server. Just like the good ol days before the G.E.

Hey, I've got a solution for all of you who don't want to start from scratch!..........
DON'T PLAY THE GAME. If you're unhappy about the reset and don't want to start from scratch, stick with the newest Runescape.

Everyone starting from scratch will bring a big fun factor, at least for us who enjoy the game and don't cry about the smallest things. Everyone will be starting from level 3, with no economy. We will get the experience and contribute to the establishment of the economy. There will be a big competition factor for the more hardcore gamer's as they will be rushing to become the highest level.

As for asking for newer content to be added to 2007 Runescape.. I really hope that's just some sick joke. We asked for 2007 Runescape back because it didn't have all the newer features, it was unique and nostalgic to all us Runescape veterans. If you want newer content to be introduced into the game, such as God Wars Dungeon, why not play the current Runescape?

Another thing to point out is the rare items. Introducing rares into the game would make the game unfair, and well.. they wouldn't be rares anymore. If you were to hand out only a couple rares to players, then not everyone is starting from scratch, really? People will have a bonus in cash which will help them but supplies to develop their skill levels. Also, people wont have 100's of millions to spend on a rare item, they would simply be worthless.

Really? We've also got people moaning about not being able to vote? Well, if you wanted to vote so damn badly, you would pay for membership for what was once a great thriving game. All we are interested in at the moment is hitting 250,000. When Runescape 2007 is released and there are much more than 250,000 membership accounts, I'm just Jagex will see there is a big demand for it and assign a bigger development team and lower membership costs.

It makes me sick looking at these complaints. You asked for the game back, enjoy it. Don't complain.

So when you say start from scratch, does that mean our stats on the 2007 servers will be reset/set back to what they were in 2007 or do you mean inventory and bank-wise? If this comes out for free to play as well what if people have no interest in going back to the current version? Will they be able to have their things brought with them and lock the account to the 2007 version? I for one would want my character, my inventory and my bank all locked to the 2007 version from the current version as I have no interest in the current version. Like say the 2007 servers come back for free-to-play, I would willingly lock my account out from the current servers as long as my stuff would carry over, well aside from any NEW content that didn't exist in 2007. If not then there really is no point in going back to the 2007 servers.

I hope you're joking.. if not then.. wow. By "Scratch" I mean that we are starting from nothing. Level 3 characters with no economy, which is awesome as we got to build the games economy ourselves. NO you can't bring over your character from current servers.

@ Vic MignognaYeah

Yeah, stick with your private servers. Not having you on 2007 Runescape is a benefit to us really. You're either really greedy or a cheap person to not pay $5 for membership. This go towards keeping the servers running for the game we once love.
