I am, unfortunately. With today's fantastic new update they've added a god damn Cash Shop. >_> Some of it is kind of cool I guess but wow is this getting annoying. On the plus side I guess it's all cosmetic? Whatever. On the other bright side (I guess), everything lasts forever as opposed to disappearing after 30 days like Maplestory. The existence of a "duration" status in the shop really worries me though. _________________

Are you fucking kidding me? These microtransactions are getting absolutely ridiculous. Can't wait for 06scape...
I've been nostalgia'ing a lot lately in fuse's IRC channel... man do I miss the scape of old. Huge part of my childhood; I have so many vivid memories of the stuff I did on this game and now Jagex are fucking running it to the ground. _________________

06scape is in alpha, $2 gets you in. Go do it.

Wait what? I don't see any announcements about an update, unless I'm completely missing something
EDIT: what the fuck, that's not even cool. I'm not giving jagex any more money. Hell, even the combat beta wasn't that fun for me. Maybe it's time to finally give this game up _________________

They were posted on the forums; no newspost yet. Check the Squeal tab and you'll see what I mean. _________________

I don't know if I want my character to be reset when the beta comes out though. I mean I'll probably end up doing it anyway since it's just two bucks, but still... no want start over when beta comes out _________________

I've been wanting to check out this 06scape thing since I've been hearing a lot about it, but my experience with Private Servers and whatnot in the past haven't all been positive.
I've been told this is different, but meh. I'll check it out sooner or later.
Also, this micro transaction shit is retarded and I hope this doesn't spread past cosmetic items, I don't want people being able to flat-out buy XP/GP. I know SoF lamps exist, but they don't really amount to much. |

So, Jagex finally decided to do something that isn't shitty.
After the disappointment of 06scape, this could finally be the light at the end of the tunnel: http://services.runescape.com/m=news/2007---old-school-runescape-you-vote
I for one would resubscribe in a heartbeat, if only to re-experience the game as I loved it, but with better maintenance and moderation than any private server could provide. I hope that the current members of 2013scape do the decent thing and vote. The chances of the poll reaching 750k are zero, and 500k would be highly unlikely, but one can hope, I guess. _________________

Up to 40k votes after just four and a half hours! Remember that if you resubscribe to vote you'll get a month's sub to oldscape when it comes out regardless of the final result, so you don't really have an excuse to not vote!
You can vote and check on the current tally of voters here. I'm so fucking pumped I might explode. _________________
