make it over 20m xp players could vote. because it is not fair. since you can become a qualifyed free player, then why dont you use that as a requirement to vote? i mean we all know jagex just wants old players to pay for membership and profit in short run.

A fresh start to the best game of the century (2007-09); I'll take it! As a player retired since a little before 2010, except for the here and there playing being bored in college.. I WILL BE BACK.

Would love to know what the plan is for rare items and other fun items in the game. Lets make it happen, even the ones of you that love the EoC (which in my opinion is terrible, but hey, it happens).. Bring August 2007 back!

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.

8 year vet and I just renewed my membership. I am still in absolute shock and cannot even believe you FINALLY realized this. Respect, even though i havent had faith in you in years im glad you guys have decided to listen to us for once.

People saying you wont vote. uhh why? this will not negatively effect you in ANY way. Server comes out, we stop complaining for our nostaglia, Jagex gets more money which gets you guys more update and comments. So SHUT UP and vote because this benefits you guys too.

They picked the perfect cutoff point. no complaints there. and the possibility of updates could get us GWD etc.

Starting over fresh. PERFECT. being handed everything would be pointless.. thats why private servers arent as fulfilling and why this will be different. New economy, new start, everyone is the same. Gives us a sense of accomplishment. love that we get our own hiscores too.

People wanting 2008 and everyone complaing about 2010+.. just stop. you never played during this time and you dont know what you are talking about. your arguement is invalid and nobody cares what you think. 2008 was NOT when most players played this game. it was either 06/07 when there was a record 300-500k players on AT ONCE. Just cause this era of RS is HARDER and you arent handed everything and cant AFK every damn skill and you actually have to WORK for your stats doesnt make it crappier.

The vote is my only concern.. 750k is WAY to much and I dont think you should have to be a member to vote.. most of the members dont want this so hows that fair? Im paying to vote but I mean.. either way you will get your money so why not just make it for everyone or at the very least.. a certain total level/X-amount of time a member.

Basically.. this has no negative effect on any of us. WE ALL GET WHAT WE WANT regardless of what you think. So VOTE you have NOTHING to lose only gain. Thank you Jagex for finally listening.

Too many stupid people complaining, as usual about things they dont understand. Please read the post and firs* page of this thread for yourself before you get your jimmies all rustled about nonsense.

I think we should all vote- IT HAS NO EFFECT ON THE CURRENT GAME- and it helps out those who lost pking and such.

This is almost like a private server that is kept by jagex, thats pretty damn good i say.

1/3 We of the clan world have given you much warning about your game, our largest out reach was with this video it is kind of long but it's definitely worth a watch( I know Mod Mark and few developers have already wat*hed it):

watch?v=kU8-mtY5ZKg

We who actually play this game, know what is needed to keep people interested. You don't need this poll to tell you bringing back the servers is the right thing to do, we're telling you it is we all are. As stated on this thread(16-17-704-64235384) you're only allowing people who already pay for membership(meaning they do enjoy EoC vote) by doing so you're neglecting the F2Pers which lead to the initial decline of your game. You want people to buy membership? let's be real they have to enjoy the F2P first before they decide to pay for the P2P this is a concept you do not seem to understand. You've neglected and killed off F2P, therefore the new players come in they see the terrible F2P, why would they pay for membership? because you say its supposedly better? They'll judge on there own, because we're people who make our own opinions not dummies who will take your word on everything. We of the clan world have put our minds together and even made an appendix on how to re-popularize your game(its linked on the video above at the end) We know what is needed we have brains too. We are the players, we're telling you what will keep us interested, and then you go in the polar opposite direction with your updates. Mod Mark, I watch the interviews and all and see you claim to have several years worth of updates already planned, this will do you no good if your players already leave the game out of disinterest.

I quit when eoc came out, happily i might be once again playing. ohh and btw if your bringing back the rs from 2007 when it comes to events like x-mas will you remake or reload all the old events over the next years? so will we be having the same x-mas event as in 2008 - 2012 just every upcoming year?
