Not sure why people are saying there needs to be a no option.. It states that if you don't want it, don't vote for it. Also, People moaning about the price etc need to actually read.. It's a business, businesses are there to make money. If they plan to hire a WHOLE new team to maintain these servers, then they're going to have to pay them, and as the servers will probably be specific to a certain group of players (myself included), they should pay for it. As for asking for 2009-scape; It wasn't even that long ago, yeah there has been loads of changes since the 2009 days, but there have been a lot more since 2007. the big, BIG changes in the game (besides EoC) such as the grand exchange made a lot of people stop playing, and by bringing it back, it will encourage old players to maybe rejoin, in turn, earning jagex more money. Fair play to them, it's a business, it's what they do.

"Will you keep your username or can you fight to get the rare ones that's were taking early on runescape. Will it be exact economy as current rs. And will premium members receive any special bonuses?"


They said they were trying to make it so we keep our original names.
If Jagex resets banks and stats the economy will be extremely different from current rs.
(for the better)

"The big question is will the members actually get behind this and register their support, abstain or will people simply hope that someone else will carry a positive vote for them?
I hope that voter apathy wont undermine player democracy, nevertheless the one thing we know for sure is that you will be able to participate from tomorrow onwards and everyone will see the results in real time."

Wow. Be a little more biased as to what you want, MMG.

Did you ever consider that some of your players consider RS membership a bit like the role as a shareholder? Jagex devoting resources, even if it is a new team, to a different part of the game that I hold no interest in anymore is an idea I'm completely against. It might be a different team, but it still affects your bottom line to maintain and update all those old servers. I really doubt you're going to see a significant boost in membership to accompany this huge new undertaking. I realize the allure of nostalgia, but this seems downright irresponsible for a company that has experienced some close calls before.

In any case, your words above about how I'm just being an abstainer wanting someone else to vote for me though is just silly.

No support. ;)
