An easy way to help out is to vote daily for RuneRebels, I'd recommend voting on moparscape.

By having an owner that focuses on adding content and reasons to vote. Won't happen though

The lack of updates is the main problem, and the main solution would be have more updates. However, I'm sure a few people would still be willing to join and play on this server even with the lack of updates.

Look at it this way, many people still played this server when there was much less content. I think it's still possible to get new players if people vote and interact with others; I met a new player recently who joined because he saw RuneRebels listed on moparscape.

**EDIT: Also, making sure the game is functional would be a step forward**

i won't be deleting the server advertisement link because it's wonderful to see the different stages of new 2006 servers.

at first it's the small advertisers that try to get many players...
then the server countdown.
alpha trial, possibly 60 players.
then the cry for donations to maintain everything
beta has like 5 players because of all the duping/glitching/ect.

lastly, the different endings. usually it's the owner(s) making a post about how he has no time to maintain it all, and they'll be doing stuff for their future.
all this spans out to usually a month or two.

lol

Dont forget the hype part where everyone is talking how good that server is and how they tell everyone their server is soooooooooo good

Basically the moral of the story is we need more updates. Without an evolving server community and development wise, nothing will happen. And no part will evolve without the other.

This server has a lot of memories for me and others but the sad truth is, nobody wants to join a incomplete server that lacks updates or a big community :(. I would love to see at least 50 people on a day but that won't happen unless they brush off the dust and start working on quests and content.

Although not a 2006 server, the server I play is a remake from 2008 and I've been playing it for a year strong 8).

Anyone still playing? I just found out and am absolutely in love with this, and got a few of my friends interested. It's too bad I'm the only player in the server :/. Also a helpful tip to the people running this is that the client is difficult to download as in hard to understand what to do with the download. Somehow I got it working by playing around with the files.

Huh it's just a .zip, pretty standard. Unless you prefer like an unzipped .exe. I guess there should be different options on a main download page then d:

I think some skillers still play... it would be cool to see a graph of playtime so we don't have to guess at this. Hmm

I would recommend using the .exe file for the client if you have windows. Sometimes I have had issues with the webclient and the downloable client in the past.

Sadly Oracle has made the webclient extremely difficult to keep working. :(

i never see anybody on. i was honestly going to give all my items away if anyone was on. i might just drop it or alch it for fun. i guess people don't really play this anymore. they should have did something to keep it working. like releasing some items that arent accessable because of quests
