Constructive criticism on the availability of the polls:

I'm a vet and have played rune scape for over 5 years, I don't see why they can't just make it so free accounts that are eligible for the 5 year and 10 year vet cape also have the ability to vote in this poll.

I'm not getting a membership because I don't like the current state the game is in, and I'm not spending my money just to vote after spending 5 or more years of playing rune scape weather paying or not we should have the ability to vote.

But I guess your new paying members are more important than us all we get is a cape and no say because we don't want to pay for something we don't like. I'm sure there may be other people like me but please understand I'm only trying to represent myself and not other players. I'm simply stating my own opinions on the behalf of myself.

Basically what I got out of the news article is, you have to pay us 5 dollars if you want to vote! If not enough people pay us, we will punish you by making you pay a lot of money to play rune scape 2007 if you decide not to bring your account back to membership status. Make sure you pay us or you can't vote or else the vote is not legitimate! Which is basically like telling people who are coming to vote for a political election that they have to pay 10 dollars to cast their vote or else they can not vote.

Ok if it does not reach level 3 and the ones using it are paying for it all and are receiving no updates and as such more resources are going into the current version of runescape then I am ok with this.

If it reaches level 3 or 4 that'll mean I am paying for something I do not support which I am not ok with. I hate how you went back on your word of not doing this. I hate how you wasted dev time looking for a backup. I hate how you are considering giving those servers updates.

Those servers are for those against progress. Give them a bug free experience with how the content was up to the addition of the ge. After that leave them to do their own community events and enjoy their content. That's what they are asking for don't waste resources on it though.

A small number of 2007 servers that have a cost to play would be ideal. 2007 servers would be mainly PvP servers as the updates are pre-GWD which leaves about 5 bosses plus barrows to keep heavy PvMers active, taking into account that about 10-15% of the community are of the PvP focus group the 2007 servers would mainly need to accommodate that group. The small number of servers would keep the cost down, and the lack of updating would further the low cost; it's a win-win for everyone.

Side note, I prefer the current server so whatever happens happens.
