"So ... updates we all enjoyed over time - like tabbed banks, searching banks, resting, diaries, summoning - would not necessarily ruin the game, as long as its original spirit wouldn't be twisted again ... same for HD, resizeable screen, removing roofs, door closing in farming shop, where the Master Farmer used to be trapped by players, some quests and, if I don't go too far, GWD (last one arguable)."

We did NOT "all" enjoy all of those. What gives one person the "right" to try to speak for EVERYONE?!

when do we vote? Please put it on osrs homepage so we can see.


We're aiming to get the first set of polls up this coming Thursday, so only a couple of days to wait. We'll be adding a poll page to the Old School website and mention it in the news feed on the Old School home page - it should be really clear to anyone who visits. We'll create a forum thread too.

Can you PLEASE prevent non 2007scape players (with zero total levels or XP worth less than 5 hours of gameplay) from posting in RS2007 related forums / feedback? They keep coming in with trolls, unneeded arguments and updates to derail and devalue discussions amongst 20007scape players.

People spend more time arguing / fending off Modern Runescape content than actually posting useful discussion.


We're not going to be doing this, sorry.

Easter event – the 2007 Easter holiday event is re-activated to coincide with Easter this year.
YES

Herb naming – unidentified herbs become grimy <herb name>.
NO! NO! NO!

Remove roof – a command to toggle the visibility all roofs on and off.
YES

‘Enter’ to login – the enter key submits login information, rather than only the login button.
Would be nice, but doesn't matter

Bank booths – left click bank booths to instantly open the bank interface.
Would be nice.

F2P worlds – still members only, but allows PKers to fight with F2P gear restrictions
Why bother, if they are still member's world. Seems like a waste of time.

I thought OLD SCHOOL meant the way it was. Changing how some things work, I can see. Changing THINGS, I can't see.

i payed and voted for 07 rs for a reason i dont want non of these new updates, the only thing i would like is f2p worlds to pk in as i enjoy f2p pking


You don't want none of the new updates? So that means you'll be voting in favour of all the new changes?
(double negative (don't and none) makes a positive)

I think most of the people playing 2007 version of the game are here simply because they cannot stand EoC and SoF-infested Runescape.

And again, I think most of the people in 2007 would be very very happy if they had the chance to play again Runescape as it was before SoF, Solomon, EoC, Gerhard, IVP Investors ...

nor "epic" emotes with miners bravely hitting rocks with their ... uhm ... heads ...

So ... updates we all enjoyed over time - like tabbed banks, searching banks, resting, diaries, summoning - would not necessarily ruin the game, as long as its original spirit wouldn't be twisted again ... same for HD, resizeable screen, removing roofs, door closing in farming shop, where the Master Farmer used to be trapped by players, some quests and, if I *on't go too far, GWD (last one arguable).

Oh! By the way! Back in 2007, Runescape also had an Andrew Gower. Bring him back too?? :D


Sorry, I had to remove some of your post to get enough characters to reply =P

1) What is SoF?
2) Who is Gerhard?
3) What are IVP investors?
4) Yes! Hate the current mining emote. I like the old jerky one. It was quaint <3. Much the same as the old Headbang emote. Please never change that, it's epic ^-^ <3
5) Tabbed banks - Yes
6) Resting - Yes
7) Diaries - No. Remove Karamja too plox
8) Summoning - No. But something to increase how much you can carry in your pack would be nice
9) HD - ONLY if it is optional. Otherwise no.
10) Resizeable screen - Yes
11) Removing roofs - Yes
12) Door closing in farming shop, where the Master Farmer used to be trapped by players - Yes
13) Some quests - Yes, but the rewards probably need to be tweaked to suit OSRS (less XP rewarded, more access to game features/areas, remove some item rewards (to unbalanced to be in RSOS)
14) And, if I don't go too far, GWD - Still undecided, but if they bring back GWD, then gravestones are a must too. And I really don't like gravestones...

Please give us right click reporting, its impossible to type some bot names.
and also increase the frequency of random events in the ess mines.


Please do! I stood outside Aubury's, closing the door to catch botnames today. It is terrible! The ess-mines are overrun with bots.

Only updates I want to see are small mechanical tweaks that make game play more convenient. Resting would be great, tabbed banks would be great, more right click options on NPCs would be great. That kind of stuff.

If anything like GWD, Summoning, of SoF ever get added, I will quit and go back to private servers. These are the things that started to drastically change the direction of Runescape and ruined the spirit of the game. EoC was only the final nail in the coffin.

Also I must say I'm not really interested in any of the untradeable holiday events coming back, especially if we are starting again at 2007. We should start the events over from their earliest beginnings in classic. I want easter eggs, pumpkins, and all of that to be spawned across RS again.

Also I have an off topic question, is there any way to appeal a forum ban? The account I play 2007scape on is forum banned from waaaay back in the day and I would really like to move past that.
