@MJ23x " 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. "

So spending 1 year to train up all of your stats again, complete quests and everything else is "perfect"? You're living in a fantasy world mate. You don't realize how much time and work it takes to start a whole system from scratch. In 2007, the game had a whole 6 years of resources pumped into the game, and that's probably not all. Starting from scratch would mean no readily-available supplies of resources and/or items to keep the game exciting and people Pking over the duration.

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.

Also, transferring accounts from Post-GE to pre-GE (2007) would be unfair to new/average players within the new servers.

So you flipped in the GE millions, now you want to move into a Non-GE world with all your flipped money? Seems far (sarcasm)
