Fantastic! Thanks for informing us :)

Obviously, should player activity decline over the next 6 months rather than grow we would have to introduce an additional $5 membership fee to fund the on going service.

But YAY!

I wouldn't have minded the $5 extra fee, it probably would have kept a good amount of bots out of the game, seeing as they would have made less profit from goldfarming having to pay the extra fee per month, per account. But then again, it seems like gold-farmers are getting raped recently. Forgive me if I have no sympathy for these people.

Aaaand they have a 25k trade limit too.
Jk, haven't check yet. I'll be sure to make one to start my pure. Thanks for telling us!

If oldschool gold can make more money than the real rs, then im sure goldfarmers would still pay for the extra fee. Hopefully no goldfarming will happen though, or if it does, Jagex shuts it down like they are doing on thee main game. :)
