Apparently yesterday, the total number of active players surpassed 2007 peak.

Pretty remarkable.

Then sounds like we're about the same age; you just started playing a bit younger.

Imagine if all game companies just made games their customers wanted to play.

Just imagine that...

From like 2005-2009 that game took up much of my time, loved Clan Wars.

Would consider getting back into it but my character was moved to the new RuneScape and can’t access it on OSRS and I don’t feel like leveling up another account, takes forever.

Bring back Medal of Honor: Allied Assault or Unreal Tournament and I'll be excited.

Well now you can play on a smartphone. More convenient than a a desktop with dial up.

OSRS is likely my most played game of all time. Somehow, Jagex can make grinding fun.
