Jagex you must not give in to those wanting stats/items transferred but keep it so all players start out at level 3!

Why?

- Fair *tart
- Gives time for all players to contribute to the economy
- Encourages growth due to the rarity of items at the beginning
- Players are saying how many will quit due to the lack of items and trade but this will honestly teach players to be more patient and to value a positive economy since RS2's current one is hyperinflated.
- By transferring over items/stats you are basically adding "Discontinued Rares" in the sense that many players will make millions and even billions by using their skill/item advantage compared to others.

++ This also makes potential gamblers completely ineffective until they do Legends Quest which can take a long time to get the requirements for, and since most florists do not have the inclination to actually work for something like this, it renders O'SevenScape safe from flower scammers!

^ "Jagex has stated that they do not wish to recreate the effect that Party hats have had on RuneScape's economy." - The Runescape Wiki

If you give players the opportunity to transfer items/stats you are allowing that effect to re-occur on this new retro server. Please don't allow the 07's economy to be effected by the transfer of player stats/items!

If you agree please copy and paste, and if not please re-post why :) !

P.S. This version has correct grammar.

I think Jagex should make it so that people who played back in 2007 can vote instead of just members.
Many of the people who want 2007 servers have already quit Runescape and don't have membership (me included) :(

I agree with free players voting, make it an account age thing.

My only thing is stats are MUCH easier to get now than in 2007, and so it would be blatantly unfair to allow them to be transferred. Starting over is not such a bad thing.

"Also I doubt that any one of us would enjoy to start over from scratch as Mark Gerhard has mentioned. I think this is total nonsence."

--

I WAS here (see the 2006 hat on the avatar) and I know what it was like.

I have no problems with the idea of leaving this toon and bank in the current eoc game.. and starting over in the '07 game.

My Alog is open.. you can see I'm not a beginner here (even if you ignore the hat)..

2400+ total levels.. 59M farm xp.. and I would welcome that game back.. with open arms! Even starting at level 3!
