Since ProjectRS06 has been down, and KO9 stepped down as the owner, Si Force took over. I've been talking to Si Force off and on the past few days.
We both had every intention on merging PRS06's accounts to RuneRebels(Items weren't going to be brought). After we talked he said Pompano didn't want to redirect the domain to runerebels.com. We talked about making a whole new domain for both servers, and it would be a completely new server with both our accounts and their accounts.
It has been a few days since we've spoken about this, and we were supposed to receive the accounts. Today I went on Pompano's site and messaged him, asking for permission to do a Q/A for the people of ProjectRS06 to know, and understand what has happened before in the past between RuneRebels and ProjectRS06. I went there to try and clear the air on what was going on with everything.
Since I was denied permission to do the Q/A, let me explain a few things that I wanted to get across.
RuneRebels has never DDoS'ed ProjectRS06, nor have we ever asked, or paid anyone to do so.
RuneRebels has never Hacked ProjectRS06, nor have we ever asked, or paid anyone to do so.
We have a strict policy with our staff team, we do not tolerate it.
Here is a picture I took of my conversation with Pompano. The image is quite big.

I did lie when I said I would kick Frell out.
As you can tell from this point on, it is highly unlikely for them to give us the Character files over, so if you are from ProjectRS06 you will have to start all over. I do apologize for any inconvenience.

Here are prs06's true colors guys.. they have been hiding it ever since and they finally have been caught. In other words, they don't give two shits about the players unless there is money involved.

i was level 3

I don't understand. Si Force was talking about merging some player accounts' skills.
And there's this drama and misunderstanding between people with multiple names? Stemming from months ago?
Pompano = RuneFort = prs06 & runefort sites owner?
Si_Force = latest prs06 leader.
Spades = Kevin = runerebels owner?
What's going on lol. There were literally thousands of people in the prs06 community. And suddenly there is none?

The reason for this is because they all moved on assuming prs06 is dead. Which it is now, but it wasn't before.

There is stuff about Pompano I am not at liberty to talk about. You should ask Pompano why he had so much involvement in ProjectRS06 if he didn't develop or moderate for them.
-
Ah man. Well if this merge doesn't happen I suppose I'll move on as well and stop playing anything RS related. It's been fun.
Edit: About the mysterious (to me) Pompano, I assume since he was the sys admin or server hoster, he was in it for the money; hosting a large private server isn't free and becomes a job, yes?

He wasn't hosting it. And I don't think I should explain why.

I never played that other server so I'm glad there isn't a merge :s.
-
Lol now I'm more confused than ever. Peace out for a while. d:

DEV NO STAY

Would be a good idea to actually merge them with us, we would get a lot more members but it would be kinda unfair if they kept their stats

Hmm how so? The xp rate here is higher.
Also I wonder if there's another site they could merge with. Maybe?
DEV NO STAY

-
I just think it's unfair i don't know your opinions but the deal is we kinda just started I guess, and prjrs06 has been out for a while, it would mostly be unfair for the people that are ranked on the hiscores, it would also boos the economy a bit, but I like it this way everyone has to work hard to reach the top at the moment, and I hope it'll stay this way
-
Can you at least have a poll before you do this?

It's not happening.. did you even read the picture?

Nope :)
Edit: Oh never mind I read the last sentence wrong so I got a little nervous XD
-
I don't agree to do it this way. Players on prs06 got items like dragon way before us at Runerebels and then had a huge advanage for leveling. I think if you guys are adding the prs06 accounts to Runerebels all skills above 60 should be set to 60. Don't forget that prs06 was full of botters aswell witch I think ruins it.
I would also like skills that are not released in runerebels but were released in prs06 should be reset to "1".

Speaking of unreleased skills, has there been an ETA set for the Slayer skill? If I have missed a post about it, please direct me there.
Thanks.

if u guys read kevins post there will be no merging
-
I am still working with Si Force. He is trying to get the accounts.
-
Although I wasn't even on PRS06 for a month before it went down, I can tell you this doesn't surprise me. That whole team is a bunch of backstabbers and bullshitters. Its best for RR to not be associated with scum like them. I've got a better character here anyway.
Long live RR

Also because of how poorly their team handled being shut down. "o ya guise were bein ddosed for a month straight lol"
After about 3 days everyone realized there was more to it than that and probably either moved to Jagex's server or just gave up. Its a shame too while the PRS06 team was shit the player community was actually really good. Lots of helpful people. We really need a way to bring them here

While I don't think lying is good anytime, because it can lower your integrity, and honor, I am glad you where lying about Frell. I do remember the name, but not anything about him, so my opinion is based on, you don't get rid of someone, just to please another. That would be wrong.
Also, my opinion, I believe if people from Proj want to play here, they should start over. How many of us came from other games that shut down, yet we started from scratch.
While I only played on Proj for a few hours, I was not impressed at all with the members I encountered. Rolling around in road-kill would have been much nicer and less disgusting. And the bots, that was totally out of hand. Bringing over their member data base would be bringing over their trash, along with the bots.
Other then a very few brain dead idiots, you have, for the most part, the best and nicest members I've encountered.

You may remember the name only, but I remember the backstabbing, hissyfit actions - losing him would only be positive.
I've said it before and will reiterate here, starting over is the only option that should be considered (coming from a player that had a 950 total level account)
You must have hung out with the wrong crowd. I played for 5 weeks there and skilled and fought with numerous people that were talkative and quite nice. Trolls? Of course, they got ignored though along with the bots... but then again I played for the enjoyment, and not top bank or top hiscores. That's about the only thing that lacks on this server - somewhat crowded areas to converse with different people everyday.
Anyway, my vote is a strong no on transferring accounts - unfair to the RR loyal members who have been here for awhile.

Wow didnt expect this

They do care they just think that this will be better for the community but it really wont.

I did start on PR06 around December 20th and the only thing I thing I remember about Pompano was that he provided funding for the server for the first month or 2 while David was still with the server. Once David had left, Pompano had basically resigned from being shown on the site as an admin as well I'm pretty sure. I'm pretty sure he provided funding for ProjectRSC as well, whether or not he still does, I'm not sure.

I am a little dissapointed in the rebels staff
In my point of view ive helped them out with some things
Ive never had a thank you for what ive done for the safety of the runerebels community
And now this ? I hope this "merge" wont succeed and indeed They are wrong
By thinking this Will help out the community
Glad whe share the Same toughts

Explain to me why you guys think this is a bad idea?
The only thing their players will have are stats. We aren't going to be careless about this. We still need to discuss if we limit exactly what they bring over stat wise.
None of their staff are going to be coming here. The only thing they are giving us, is the profiles. So we can integrate them so the players don't need to start all over again. We are trying to grow our community, and help theirs out at the same time. There are literally thousands of people who worked on their server who have lost everything. We are trying to help them.
People are quick to say no, explain to me your reasoning. I take everything into consideration, I enjoy getting your opinion of things.

The only issue I honestly see coming up with this is how we handle the username situation. My username is Envy both here and on PR06, my friend's name on PR06 is Dragonite and somebody else has it here, etc...
How will we handle that situation?

Why would this be a good idea? Whats the point? Why do we have to be them and not be our own community?

They would create a forum account, and then attach their prs06 account to the forum account. Then when the log on they would have thier stats from prs06.

So if we do go about doing this, will I just log in one day to have all my stats and items swiped and just have like 20 woodcutting and fletching? Because that's all I had on prs06.
-
Are you really ready for the amount of potential players that would come here? As a staff? As a playerbase? I'm not sure that can be answered until it's too late, but you can try.
-
We have enough money right now to purchase 1-2 more worlds, and we can upgrate the vps the site is running on.

No. All of our accounts stay as they are currently. To sync stats from PR06 you have to create a new account and enter your information from PR06, and I'm assuming you go by the username of the new account you created.
-
Our accounts are not going to be touched at all, you will all play the game normally, they will need to attach their accounts and then they will be fine.
-

Not sure if these are answers to my questions, but I wasn't actually talking space in the worlds. I am more alluding to the proverbial target on your back once you have a rapidly growing playerbase. There are still kids out there that continue receiving no attention from mommy and daddy and are constantly looking for their next victim to brag to their hacker friends about.
Also, with increased players means the potential for increased trash coming here, it's inevitable. Modding a player base of 30-100 can be simple - now take that and multiply it by 10, or 20, or more. Players can become increasingly agitated at all the help needed - and we see what can happen. I don't really know any of the mods here, they may be able to handle it just fine.
Off topic:
Slayer skill ETA?

So let me get this straight:
RuneFort's/ProjectRS06's accounts will be put into RuneRebels. All of our levels will be kept. The only thing we will get out of this is players and what else?
-

Runefort isn't a server, so it's just prs06's accounts. And ours will be fine. All they will get is their stats basically. They will enter the game as if it was projectrs06 but their accounts will have no items.

I just don't want our high scores to be merged. Because people hack and unfair stats. Will it be that their accounts will only be merged when they log into the server?
-
The accounts will not be automatically on the highscores. They will be added once they attach their account to their forum account and login. After that first login then their account will be placed on the highscores.
-
Then merge these two sons of bitches!
-
I don't know why this "pompano" guy is so bitchy, but please don't let that deter you from merging, Si seems way more chill. I, for one, spent countless hours leveling my character and would love to resume that here.
Also, to the people warning against the overwhelming growth in player base that this would cause- I doubt it would be the same amount of players that rs06 had in its final days, let alone its peak. A large chunk of the playerbase left before the project even died- and those who stayed this long to find out what has happened number even less.. Plus, from what Ive seen you guys seem to have a lot better leadership and communication than the, albeit hardworking, but sporadic chaos that was ko9.
-
when will this happen?
-
I don't think the population would grow out of control of this server even with that merge. After Project died most of them probably went to that RS07 thing or they quit RS remakes in general.
-
when will this happen?
It's not happening.. the whole post is about it NOT happening....
-

The original post talks about how it looks unlikely to happen, but every post by Kevin afterwards makes it seem like they are still trying (through Si Force) to retrieve the player data and integrate it with RR. It looks like it WILL happen as long as someone at PRS06 can get a hold of the files and send them over.
-
Does this mean were having an economy reset? I'm confused because this is my first time reading up on it.
Also, I played PR06 with the same name. If you copied my account, I would loose all that I've worked for on here.
-
Just to all of those in doubt, I'd like to mention that RuneRebels is more than ready to handle the players that cross over from Project RS06. The staff team (from what I can tell) is very efficient and stability should not be an issue.
I have tried to get the character files over the past few days, however I have not received a response as of yet unfortunately. Hopefully we can get this solved soon. :)

Said. Chances are looking grim right now though.

I think its funny my name is thrown around so much
They act like I care when it was pretty simple to begin with, everyone involved with PRS06 had something to gain $$$$-wise. I don't like when people profit directly from others property, simple as that. Paying for the VPS is one thing but KO9 had already mentioned he wouldn't have taken over if there was no monetary reward. Along with that Kevin told me Pompano is trying to get $700 from KO9 since the project was shut down.
Most of the "reasons" I did it were thought up on the spot (lucky me they made sense and fit in well to the situation at hand). I had to fight with them otherwise on the surface it looked like I was attacking another Mopar moderator for no reason.
-
Will I loose all my stats if the character files were to be transferred?

No

Don't merge anything, just get all the players to come to this server, sure they'll have to start over but that would be the best for everyone.
-
I would have no problem with this.
(note: the above statement is heavily biased, as I have a level 70 acc sitting inaccessible)
-
the economy over on projectrs06 was very different from this server, and most of them did not have to work for their stats, the worlds were flooded with botted accounts, also i played that server, i saved up 2 phats and with those 2 phats i bought all the logs i needed for 99 fletching, on here i actually had to work for it
-
Merge em. I really desperately want to see new players here. Please if you have the chance to, merge them. I want this to grow, I've grown tired of the same faces, I want to see new people climbing the leader boards and to have competition again. People's arguments that "we started from level 3 so they have to too!" Are completely invalid because they did, in fact, start from level 3. I would be devastated if everything I had was wiped, so why should they feel that way too? The nay-sayers have absolutely no argument here as it won't effect them at all. "This will totally mess up our economy" No, they will have to adapt to our economy. We get to sell stuff to them. It's not a matter of our server getting taken over, it's about expanding the community.
-
MERGE! And, give people one chance to have a name change? Please. :-[
-
I think this is a hard decision to make, once, or if, you receive the data base. As long as we are NOT talking about their items, but only their levels. Maybe a small amount of cash to buy the obviously needed tools... ie... hammer, chisel, whatever, so on...
I do feel for those that truly worked for their levels, they obviously want the merge. And, I understand why they would want this.
Then there are those that did nothing but bot to earn their levels. Since there is no proof they where bots, and it's highly unlikely they will admit to it, to condemn those that didn't because of those that did, I think is wrong.
I think this is a hard decision to make. I think I'm inclined to agree to it, as long as we're talking levels.

25 gp is enough :)

I agree, they should get their levels and the basic starting items to start them on their journey :)

Unfortunately, I had a feeling something like this would happen :(

I'm from PRS06, but I already did so much more on Runerebels. :D

awwww that means i wouldnt anything from my bank in prors....man that sucks its so hard getting Armour, weapons or runes right now

Oh my fucking god can we please lock this thread?? retards keep posting like its an active thread when it was made TWO WEEKS AGO. the worst part is these retards clearly didn't read the original post because if they did they would know that the thread is to explain that THIS ISN'T GOING TO HAPPEN STOP FUCKING POSTING YOU RETARDS
-
[this thread is old and in the original post it said this won't happen]
Wrong, but I can see why. You have to read elsewhere and in the next few pages after the original post that they were still looking into grabbing the player data.
I found it odd that OP contacted the runefort leader because afaik he doesn't have the data, the ex leader of prs06 did, and the newer leader of prs06 wanted them. lol idk anymore.

I've read the thread. From what I understand the community doesn't support it and whoever has the files clearly has no intention of giving them up. Face it. This thread is as dead as PRS06
