Getting sick of everyone crying about the server because it's going to be an August 10th, 2007 one. As some of you know, the Grand Exchange was released November 2007, and changed the way the game's market functioned to this day. Back when they announced the EoC coming to us in the live game and there were over 10000 posts, mostly filled with hate, I saw some things after I snooped around. One was an interview with Mod Mark.
The question went along something like this: "Will you ever release a 2006 server similar to RuneScape classic?"
The response was basically "no, the players need to learn to look to the future and forget the past."
Now we have this. In another Q&A, a question was asked "Why can there not be two versions of the game?"
The answer, and this is what is making me so frustrated with people asking for an 08-11 server, was that managing TWO Grand Exchange databases would be too much work.
WHY NO ONE ELSE seems to be able to recall this, I do not know. I will try to look for the source but this is not made up. That is why you are not getting a 2011 server.
