It's a huge shame they were so silly to make the poll members only. Don't give me that load of rubbish that it's for security measures to make it fair. Simply by making it 1 vote per host and/or IP address is adequate. For the investment side, so many more players would come back if it was just there. Think ahead JaGeX. To be honest, go ask some private server owners if they would like to contribute towards the development of it. They probably will, for free or for little payment. They've already made their respective servers successful, may as well benefit from it.
"..veterans back"
Yeah, because all of the veterans they don't play and aren't interested are going to pay £4 odd to vote in a poll which is probably going to be lost due to the amount of new, and young players that are extremely narrow-minded.
I hope it comes around though. At anybody who is thinking of not voting for it, please do. Remember, it's not going to affect your current gaming experience and you never know, you may and probably will like it.
Also, 50000 votes, if each player follows through, which they likely will do. Paying $15 each. Then extra players who don't want to waste money buying membership just to vote playing as well. That's a minimum of $750,000 for a small server with a small, probably 2-4 man development team + servers. That's an absolute joke right?
