This is ridiculous, 750k votes plus having to become a member to vote... Even at 2006-2007 where runescape was thriving with players there wasn't 750k ppl online at once. regardless, Letting members only vote is not fair..

Atleast let people who have an average of atleast three months or six months of membership to vote.... Or instead let everyone above a certain level to be able to vote to avoid the bots and new accounts spamming.

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 Start
- 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.

On a side note, I want to remark that we truly appreciate how passionate and devoted our players are to the future success of the game. I’ve never seen any other community as active and passionate about shaping the future of their game experience. It’s truly an honour to be part of this community and I very much hope this initiative positively engages the current - as well as the lapsed - community.


We have always been here for RS! I love the pre 2010 era so so much. If only you listened to us at the start jagex.

I'm willing to vote for it, even though I probably won't spend most of my playing time on it. However, I think asking for all your stats and crap to go with you is being rather greedy. I'm not generally a Jagex apologist, but the fact of the matter is that they don't have to do this. Contrary to all the doomsday prophesies flying around, they are still making enough money to update the game, or they wouldn't be doing it. Instead, be glad you get to play a version of the game that is the most fun for you. Because I assume it's not your bank or your high stats that make RS2 fun for you; it's the gameplay. If you want to make bank with almost no effort, play the live version. Hell, after whining about how easy RS has become, you should be jumping at the chance to earn your stats and cash stack by *he sweat of your index finger.

Furthermore, if you want to play O'SevenScape, member up to vote. If you quit because of EOC and have been b^tching about it ever since, you're the ones they're doing this for. You want it to happen, you need to prove it. We all know a f2p vote would just be abused with throwaway accounts or alternates (I have 3 froobs. Don't tell me other people won't use every account they have to vote, and then make more).

I'll be honest, I sincerely hope you get enough votes to not have to pay extra, and to allow for f2p accounts to play. I want to vote to add my support. But I will not be voting to help out a bunch of entitled brats. This community doesn't need those kinds of players.
