Well considering Jagex said they would not remove the EOC as they feel its the right thing for the game even though a good majority of players do not like it... i think they are sticking to what they say quite well.

Yes i agree with you the new RS is "crappy" but the old was not.

I have a message to everybody

1: If you are fp2 and want 2007 back but without paying additional fees

Buy one month of membership just to vote. You should not see this as buying membership for eoc runescape , see this as paying for old runescape. It is a small expense that can have a major impact. If you vote and we hit 500k than you will not have to pay the additional fees, ever ! So see it like paying once to make sure you don't have to pay ever again later on ! It is a small amount that can change the game you loved for yourself and so many other people, just do it ! If you care so much about it that you come back to this forum, than you should care enough to pay a few dollar to realise your whish and get back the runescape you care for, it is a small price to pay really ! Don't do it for the moneygrabbing Jagex , do it for old school runescape, do it for your passion ! You even get one month free if you vote so really you don't lose anything as you can atleast play one month on the servers for free even if we don't hit 500k, else you'd have to subcribe anyway !

2: To people who currently have a membership and haven't voted already

Please vote ! Even if you don't plan on playing, it would really mean alot to hundreds of thousands of fellow runescape players who want old school back. Realise that old school doesn't change this new runescape that you like and love to play. Runescape is going to continue to evolve, you won't lose what you have. The resources of jagex will go to eoc and runescape3 not to 2007 , it is just like runescape classic. Your vote can help to realise the dream of a part of the community who had a passion for a game that doesn't exist anymore. You don't and won't lose anything by voting yes , the only impact you can have is a positve one for a big community of players. If my vote could save the game you like you would also want me to vote ! So please just do it , go to that home page and press the damn button !

So we have some who will not pay for something they think is bad, even if it means they will get something they want for free*****;==That's commonly known as BOGO!

Then we have others who don't want to support what PKers want because they don't like PKers, even though if the PKers had cheap enough access to '07 RS they would have less gaming time to PK in RS with EoC.

Me? I'm a player who had an account from sometime in '06 till early in '08, and even though I don't like PKing, I did like the skilling back then. I voted and I think everyone should vote, even if they don't want to play in '07 RS, even if they have to pay for a month of RS EoC to vote, and get the choice of trying out '07 RS for free (that BOGO stuff again).

So players, get out there and vote! Everyone can find a reason to vote!

VOTE! VOTE! VOTE!

This is the way I see this whole situation,

The 2007 Servers are coming back no matter what now.. So whats the point not to vote?! even if you wont play it? you'll get the chance to give it a go.

Not voting now that its coming back is just spiteful, assuming you wish for the community to pay $15 to play it?

I think the question now is not why you should vote but why you shouldn't vote? seems as the outcome of 2007 servers now is guaranteed.

I left after EOC was introduced but had a one-month card left, so I have just used it to join again and vote for the 2007 game. It was a tactical vote. I do not particularly want to play 2007 - I'll try it, though - and would much rather just have EOC minus one day back, as I had no problem with anything before then. I hope the irony will not be lost on Jagex that as their main game dies due to EOC, their old game will be thriving. If they would only get rid of the gamekiller EOC they could have me and many others back in the main game and win on both counts.

I predicted last November that they would have alternative servers up and running before Christmas for those allergic to EOC. I was wrong; it didn't happen until February. And then it turns out to be a fossilised 2007 version, where you must start as a lvl 3, broke, no GE, with all the quests to do again, etc. (I know many love the way it was, but I only joined in 2009 so have no nostalgia for it: I just want my 2012 game back!)

I just hope that in doing this, I can contribute in some small way to killing EOC, the update that killed Runescape.
