This appears to be a money grabbing exploit, they're trying to get all the old players such as myself to resubscribe to vote. I will probably fall for it, because this would be truly great.

But think about the game, isn't it bad if a game was better 7 years ago? (Not graphically of course)

MARK GHERHARD MAKES IT VERY CLEAR THAT THIS WILL NOT AFFECT THE EOC. ANY MAINTENANCE OF THIS GAME WILL COME FROM A NEW TEAM, FUNDED BY ITS OWN THE MEMBERSHIPS.

PLEASE. EVEN IF YOU WON'T PLAY IT, VOTE FOR IT. WE WORKED HARD FOR THIS AND HOPE ONLY THAT YOU CAN RESPECT THAT."

Ah wonderful! I'm honestly so excited. :) I started back in 2007 and I absolutely loved it. For those of you complaining because 'the graphics were so bad, blah blah'; get over it. We want it back not because of it's 'fantastic graphics' and 'outstanding appearance', but because of the overall community that RuneScape 2007 held. There was no Grand Exchange, everything was sold by advertising your items on your own. There was a better sense of a community and involvement.

Sure, I love the new graphics and some-what interesting updates, but I feel as though they have gotten away from the original game concepts.

So don't be angry if you love EoC and the new updates that have come, you can still play them. Perhaps you can give the 2007 version, presuming it comes back, a chance. It's completely different from what RuneScape is now.

I love how similar this is to the large suggestion I posted a year ago relating to past-servers.

I am in favour of the aspect that F2P accounts cannot vote. This will hopefully help to avoid poll manipulation like the re-introduction of the Free Trade/Wilderness poll was victim to.

The following are a couple prime questions I have relating to the update, before I vote on the poll:

1) What are your plans for high alchemy? Will it exist?

2) Will the Grand Exchange be added to this server?

3) Will tradeable rares exist?

Ideally, I would like to see "no" as an answer to each of these questions. Below are the guidelines I had for a past-server update, when I posted the suggestion last year.

- High alchemy would be removed from the game in order to prevent the current effects seen from it (trillions of GP entering the game, manipulating the economy).

- Grand Exchange either removed or heavily restricted in order to prevent exploitation. Community trade would potentially be a mainstay within Rebooted Runescape servers, but because of the tight-knit community and personal value of items, would not require spamming to the extent needed today to trade.

- Rares are non-existent within Rebooted Runescape. Non-tradeable holiday items/emotes/music could potentially carry over onto Rebooted Runescape, provided Jagex links the accounts similar to the current Runescape/RS:Classic situation.

---------------------------

I look forward to what this update offers. I can see myself actually "playing" the game again with everyone put onto fresh servers, with a clean slate. This is much more desirable than the current method of play that I find myself partaking in.

Might I also suggest that gold members of the Runescape Club introduced this year not be penalized by an increased cost to membership that these servers may bring (if it surpasses 200k votes)? This could increase your potential number of future Runescape Club members, if they see such benefits available.
