They are honestly just trying to take advantage of players who are desperate for 2007 servers in so many ways. This is not going to turn out and be as great as everyone thinks and wants it to be. They should just make pre- EOC servers with everyones wealth erased but stats intact. This way items end up in the G.E slightly faster than if they everyone had their stats erased

Tell me why is it Jagex can not find a copy of RuneScape pre 2007, yet there's a top 100 private server listing all copies of 2006?

Why not just rip the code off them and start moving over stats from EoC to that or from RS1 to that?

Also what is it with the new CEO in 2007 and the earliest copy being 2007? Have we forgot what happened in 2007 when "rip RS" first started?

Free Trade: removed
Player vs Player: removed

Later in 2007 they started bringing back PvP through Bounty Hunter minigame and PK servers. So will this new copy be during no free trade yet 75k trick on PvP worlds where players can kill anyone outside of banks? Or would it be a copy when Bounty Hunter was around?

And why didn't anyone keep a copy besides all these private servers when Andrew stepped down from Jagex and handed it to Mark Gerhard?

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.

I cannot wait for the genuine adventure I will have in playing in the RuneScape where work is valued and accomplishments praised once again. Not many things in life make me happy but this certainly will...

Firstly, my thanks to everyone who has passionately supported on RSforums, facebook, twitter, fansites, and everything else that supports the 'old' (pre-Eoc) Runescape. Now is our opportunity to try and bring back the Runescape we knew and enjoyed.

750k votes is only 50% of the registered 1.4 mill Runescape players. It will also show that not everyone "is mastering and enjoying the EoC" and not everyone thinks that the "EoC is good for the game". I am getting the message out there to friends and colleagues who quit Runescape between the release of Dungeoneering and the EoC. So far there has been a positive response by over 50 of my friends and colleagues who are prepared to pay one months membership to vote to get back the game they loved. They don't care about levels or bank balance, they just want their game back.

I am happy for EoC servers for those who enjoy it but I am also happy for those of us who want pre-EoC servers. If 2007 level 1 everything and no money in the bank is the only way to get this, then so be it.
