This game will never get a 100+ players on again. Prove me wrong and I'll happily eat my words.

Yea I don't see 100+ players ever happening again either unless something major occurs. The reason we had that many people was projectrs06 getting shut down. When Jagex's 2007 old school server came out a lot of those people left.

I think when we get updates and advertisement we would get around 50 people, in my eyes that's pretty good. There will be always players looking for a free and decent rs06 server.

That's what I meant by something major, we would need an all around effort to get a strong playerbase back on here. We would need a stronger and more aggressive advertising campaign along with a more active staff and development team that frequently puts out major content updates. We would need our current players to continue voting and advertising runerebels.  Unless major content comes in many of our registered members will continue to "refuse to play", as long as the server is not supported.

I'm not being funny, but it's all good saying this, but they've already said that they're not advertising until there's more content, which could be 3 years from now at this rate.

I don't even play this game anymore, I just check the forums daily..
