This new generation of players is soft.
Stop crying for a GE to make the game "easier". Go out there and work hard. Everyone wants to rise to the top but no one is willing to go through those rough times, those dog days, to get there.

If anyone from the Dev team reads this, I love this game to bits and pieces but your killing it and me. I've quit this game before. It was horrible and I missed the game so much for what it
WAS
. Every time I tried to go back I couldn't stay because it wasn't the same game we all fell in love with. My hope was revived when Oldschool came, almost as if my inner child was reawakened.

You're rebuilding the coffin that now holds RS3. The plot has been bought, the grave digger is digging, the stone engraver is etching.
Only you have the power to stop this process!


This is Oldschool
, where you work hard for what you want and you earn it.
Not NewSchool,
where you whine about how tedious a task is until it's made easier.

Please stop.


Bookmarked in case a future GE passes.

Also, get a grip. It is incredibly tedious having to hop and meet people in unnecessary locations for a single item. People want a solution to the tedium, not one to make it an 'easier' game.

And for this poll please take off the 75% pass threshold. For other updates its okay but for this one, it should definitely be based on majority vote.


Do you hear yourself? Why would you change the way our voting system works exclusively for this update? Some people are unbelievable. You might as well say lets not vote anymore and just put the update through.

Honestly this is so frustrating. Players voted on a 2007 runescape, nothing less nothing more. That's what we wanted. You slowly added updates which weren't necessarily bad but you kept on losing percentages of the base players. I'm talking low percentages like 1 maybe 2 percent each update. This may seem insignificant because a "majority" still wanted the update, but now those percentages are adding up. The "majority" is no longer comprised of people who just want a 2007 runescape, but of people who want a 2012/pre-eoc.
That is the direction you are heading towards. You are losing the originalists that made this game great. Look at what the main game turned into. It pleases no one which is why you guys made oldschool. You are literally going down the same path. You are going to make the same mistakes. You are slowly implementing the aspects that made the previous game horrible. It wasn't just one aspect but the culmination of all of them together.
Runescape is an MMOR** that is based on "grinding". That's where it's bones are. That's why people loved to play it. The fact that you have to work hard to get where you want to be was the main reason this game was so great. You didn't achieve riches by manipulating the game but by using real world tactics to get ahead. Even Merchanting involved the grind of just finding players and selling items at the right price at the right time. By implementing the GE you are just making the game easier.
Look at RS3, the game has been made to be so easy that anyone can do anything. There is no skill involved. There is nothing fun about a game that is easy. The challenge is what brings players in and that's what keeps them. The GE made getting money easier. Living rock cavern made mining easier. Runespan made runecrafting easier. EOC made combat easier. Everything challenging was made easier.
I love this game for the challenge and th

you already have a rs3, why would you turn 07 into another one?? Having been a part of the original 07 i remember there was literally thousands of people people playing at any given time of the day, then you introduced the ge and other updates and the numbers of players declined. I personally have quit rs 3 a few years back but came back specifically for 07 because it reminded of the old school days. Here's a quick question for you, if something doesn't pass in the polls are you going to continue polling the question until it does pass??

GE. Im tired of waiting 50 minutes for a clue scroll item because it isn't ''popularly traded''. Im also tired of people getting stupid lucky and then becoming rich instantly compared to those who grind something and don't get anything. I'm on the side of the well deserved. Merchers and bots run the game right now, and real dedicated players need to take back control. I'm talking about those real players who bust ass to become maxed or achieve a specific goal. Not to mention the easiest way for LS/CS is simply a G.E.. And i'm a PVMer and I'm sick of seeing crashers, or even trolls who scam pixels on the game.
