Woooot this is great! I don't mind starting over from scratch, it's not as bad as you think.
People used to always make new accounts, so what's the difference?
For the people saying "oh I'm not paying $15 for that," well will you pay $5? The whole concept doesn't affect any of you, jagex won't slow down updates for it.
People asking for 2008-2011 servers please READ THE FAQ.
But my favorite part about all this is how everything has turned around, everyone who complained about EoC is now getting what they wanted, and everyone who wanted EoC is now complaining. Originally the people who wanted EoC called all the people not wanting EoC immature or just would tell them to quit, now THEY are the ones complaining doing EXACTLY what they were telling others not to do.
Btw I support EoC and 2007 servers.

Well you've given these players what they asked for "Old Runescape". I read the first 30 pages of these thread, but most of it seemed the same, so posted here now.
Good job on making the "poll" members only. If players are serious about this proposal then they can show their commitment by putting their money where their mouth is. Also good that you are not allowing trial/f2p vote, as we all know that this would bring forth a torrent of "voting bots", as what happened with free trade/wildy vote.
I think it's fair that everyone starts on the same level, gives an even base for everyone. I may even consider having an account on a 2007 server, just to supply the pkers with items as a skiller lol. Was what I did back then. Don't allow imports of accounts from 2013, as most of these players will have come from a ps, and there they have to start from lvl3. Shouldn't make any difference to be honest.
I think the voting targets are realistic, I have read that a ps had 500k registered members. 250k+ votes will bring the price of a 2007 server down to an additional $5 a month, and if the 500K+ goal is met, then no extra membership fee. Considering the amount of players posting about this over the last several months, 250k is doable goal. I doubt you will get a "jaw dropping 1.4 million votes", but let's hope the vote can gain 500k+ votes, so additional costs are not involved for players
.
I will probably vote "yes" to help these players out, but unsure if I'll play 2007 servers.
"The poll will be live on the website this Friday 15th February for two weeks."
Good luck
