very new account made on runescape now gets a free 14 days trial membership.

But wait! you cannot vote with trial accounts.

But wait again! how much it costs to buy membership on trial accounts???

1.98$!

Make a new trial membership account, buy member for 1.98$ , vote and repeat.

If the whole community does this for 7 times; we will get 750k votes easily.

Please share this everywhere so we can reach our goal and unlock f2p on these servers.

Thanks.

"2) On the other hand, you have disappointed many of us with this new idea - the level reset. I do not think that this is fair at all on the dedicated players. Why would we start again from Level 3 when we already have an account and bother to train it on a 2007-server? What is the point in that. I personally think that the accounts that we currently hold should be left as they are - but with all post-2007 weapons, armour, items, skills and other little things REMOVED, but the statistics of the accounts remain untouched. "

^this.

We never got a 'no' vote on EoC .. so ya'll don't get a 'no' vote on this . I WILL BE BACK ONCE OLD RS COMES BACK .. i was going to join again once the new skills came out .. but this is just awesome ! I LOVE the idea of starting over and racing for top high schools and high levels . I for one am in college and work full time so i wont be very high on that list but i love the idea ! I'll be making a pure . Not really sure what kind of pure yet though . But none the less !

I do have a question though , this server will have complete membership access correct ? Like there wont be a f2p and p2p , juss complete p2p ? Even if we don't have to pay ?

I can already see 250k+ votes by the end of the weekend . If not the first day .

Oh , and i'll be changing my name if all goes well :D

THANK YOU JAGEX ! :D

Ohmygod it'll be nice to play with the veteran crowd on the servers :p I'll be dedicating my time into this for lifeee as I only have time in life now to do things I am passionate about. The current Runescape is not it. Not because I have changed but because it has. I don't plan on logging back in until I can play these servers :)

For the past 2 weeks I've done nothing but chop yews in anticipation of what Jagex was going to say about this.

When the Evolution of Combat was released, I stopped renewing my membership. But when I heard that paying members have the chance to vote to have 2007 servers back, I renewed my membership straight away in order to vote.

I won't be able to vote yes on this. As nice as the idea might sound the people who started this did it out of hate for the current game with things such as "eoc sucks" and "I'm quitting over X update!".

While I know these people don't speak for all of the supporters of this petition (without a no vote it's not really a poll) I know that even if this is given they will find new things to complain about.

Besides, if it passes the thresholds for continual updates, even if new people are hired to do this, it will still take resources. Especially if it doesn't have another payment on it. I would very much rather see this go to the main game that I helped support with improvements I helped suggest rather than to a nostalgic version of the game like classic (No offense to classic players) that neither my friends nor I wish to play.

Let's be honest, the past is in the past. Even if you attempt to replicate it the feelings nor the people inside will ever be the same and you might even discover why we moved to where we are today and why certain updates you dislike were a good idea.
