Gravity 44 Posted July 21, 2018 Share Posted July 21, 2018 1. Where did you find Ely? What site if you can remember? Been playing Zarpor/Rsps2 since 2012 soooooooooo :^) 2. What made Ely stand out to you & why? One of the only/few 718s that are left that aren't full of rs3 or custom nonsense 3. What features do you love the most in Ely or don't & why? The bots are a dank addition. Severe hatred for untradeables going to diango/collector store and the grand exchange as a whole and pretty much everyone knows why at this point. 4. What would you like to see from Ely in the future & why? More wilderness activity/updates cause i'm a cuck who wants to take risks to make bank and pk. Adding Statuettes to my baby Revenants would be a dank start :D :D :D. All items that are untradeable that should be tradeable turned tradeable.

Nick 22 Posted July 21, 2018 Share Posted July 21, 2018 1. Where did you find Ely? What site if you can remember? Csplash/Paradox introduced me to Ely, he found it on Rune-server 2. What made Ely stand out to you & why? The awesome community and the competitive leaderboards. I also thought the bots (ai bots) were really neat 3. What features do you love the most in Ely or don't & why? I love the donation perks and the ability to eventually unlock the ::bank command. The Kill Log feature is really helpful for keeping track of how many times you've killed certain monsters/bosses. 4. What would you like to see from Ely in the future & why? This may seem really biased but I would like to see some pvm benefits for legend mode. It takes 5x as long as default but doesn't have much point aside from the added challenge Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Kari 308 Posted July 21, 2018 Administrators Share Posted July 21, 2018 1. Where did you find Ely? What site if you can remember? I found ely when I wanted to check up on zarpor and was redirected to Ely website and was curious so I joined the discord and saw some familiar faces 2. What made Ely stand out to you & why? I just love the community and how active you, Lation are with the community. Also some nice stuff on here you can't find on other servers like battle royale and AI bots. 3. What features do you love the most in Ely or don't & why? I loooooveee the teleport system we got, it's so nice to not have to scroll down a list but instead you can just ::tele where you want to go. 4. What would you like to see from Ely in the future & why? I'm not really sure, when it comes to thinking up some ideas and stuff like that my mind is empty lol, I guess just keep putting out nice updates and implementing stuff other players suggest and keep being great!

991atatime 12 Posted July 21, 2018 Share Posted July 21, 2018 1. Where did you find Ely? What site if you can remember? I believe i found ely on runelocus but tbh, im not sure! 2. What made Ely stand out to you & why? Honestly i just typed in my google bar '120 capes rsps' and ely stood out the most! 3. What features do you love the most in Ely or don't & why? I love the 200mil capes in ely and also the unlockables! 4. What would you like to see from Ely in the future & why? or I would like too see some improvement for uim, i know there are more defaults and they expect also improvement, but just small things that are mostly already codes like a costume room so i can store my costumes or zulrah banking! I know i chose to be an ultimate iron man, but maybe a increase in droprates since i can't bring alot of stuff to bosses. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeremy 11 Posted July 22, 2018 Share Posted July 22, 2018 1. Where did you find Ely? What site if you can remember? Jake mentioned it to me when the site went live and the client was too. Decided to join and continue serving as a staff member *JOKES ON ME OMEGALUL* 2. What made Ely stand out to you & why? Owner cares enough to dish out ads whether it's his own pocket or not, listens to feedback for the most part and tries to implement as much as he can. 3. What features do you love the most in Ely or don't & why? Everything is literally the same from Rsps2 for the most part. Just hate the bots. 4. What would you like to see from Ely in the future & why? More content, more players, more pking, just the server as a whole to succeed and not just be another server that dies again.

Nicky 73 Posted July 22, 2018 Share Posted July 22, 2018 1. Where did you find Ely? What site if you can remember? I remember typing the Zarpor url when zarpor was meant to be coming back and I was redirect to here and ended up staying. 2. What made Ely stand out to you & why? Its a 718 which is pretty much the golden era in my opinion plus and minus and few things from RS3. The community and staff are beyond the best. Everyone can joke on with each other. 3. What features do you love the most in Ely or don't & why? The 120 capes are a very cool addition. I like the fact they require 200m. The bank command is really dupe and super useful. I think the AI is a really cool feature too. Helps in minigames and can have some great banter with them. 4. What would you like to see from Ely in the future & why? I would like to see some custom weapons in the way of OSRS and RS3 weapons and maybe armours. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flip 18 Posted July 23, 2018 Share Posted July 23, 2018 1. Where did you find Ely? What site if you can remember? I googled RSPS2/Zarpor and came to Ely. 2. What made Ely stand out to you & why? The #price-discussion channel discord. #rip , nah jk I liked playing RSPS2/Zarp so I know I would enjoy it here. Also the dedication of Lation. 3. What features do you love the most in Ely or don't & why? The integrity of the server. At the moment we are lacking some fresh content tho. 4. What would you like to see from Ely in the future & why? Some dedicated group of players to keep the priceguide uptodate. Also fresh content but you know we'll help u with that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sin 17 Posted July 26, 2018 Share Posted July 26, 2018 1. Where did you find Ely? What site if you can remember? I believe I found Ely from RSPS LIST, but I couldn't be certain. 2. What made Ely stand out to you & why? It wasn't hounded with idiotic overpowered customs taking away from the game. It is a clean, simple, straight forward server. 3. What features do you love the most in Ely or don't & why? The ELY FAM! 4. What would you like to see from Ely in the future & why? Personally, I would like to see Ironman be able to boss together. Also maybe different items being added to the PvM shop. (Don't worry i'm not complaining, I love that we finally got cannonballs and overloads). Also would like to see a high scores that combines all game modes along with maybe a "top kills" log of which player has the most boss kills or general monster kills across the server. Maybe have more events to keep the community active, for example, a PvM weekend to see who does the most bossing, etc. Overall, This is an amazing server and community and I really don't have any complaints!

Enzyme 48 Posted July 31, 2018 Share Posted July 31, 2018 (edited) 1. Where did you find Ely? What site if you can remember? RUNE SERVER 2. What made Ely stand out to you & why? It was Blue lol it stood out 3. What features do you love the most in Ely or don't & why? Pro's Fantastic community Xp rates are rather ideal Home button on keyboard to tele home Has a client console You can buy nearly everything on GE Donor perks are mad hectic Has ultimate ironman Donor zone is also pretty neat Has runespan Those bots are hilarious Community is more focused on actually making gains than gambling it all Buy/sell sections in disc You can get spins from playing instead of just buying Con's Legend mode has 0 perks. Neither does any other game mode Legend mode has 0 perks Legend mode has 0 perks Blink drops minigame gear, I think it should be from cwars shop since no one even goes there Tele grab no worky And finally.. 4. What would you like to see from Ely in the future & why? BRAWLING GLOVES Add more familiars' interation abilities More bosses. For example copy/paste ones from osrs and maybe add in bork (Could drop balmung for ez dagg kills), Vorago (1 phase with massive hp), Rax (1 phase massive hp) Seedicide Add bonecrusher/other slayer items to toolbelt Afk pickpocketing from rogues castle in 55 wildy so people have somewhere to kill innocent people (Seems to be popular for some reason) Achievement sets that give rewards (Like varrock armour, fally shield etc.) Castle wars revamp (Xp lamps, move minigame gear from blink to where it belongs) Make telegrab great again Use number 1 and 2 keys to choose dialouge option when teleing to the wild so I/we all save time Make chins work like they should (Why are we paying to hunt them when they dont even work RIP Ironman chinning) Wildy skilling like black salamanders, Bloodweed patch so we can have aggression pots More weekend events that rotate through a monthly basis instead of just having the same 2 each weekend every week with double pk points being stacked alongside every weekend (Bonus/double xp, Target 1 minigame for the whole day, Clue scroll rewards buff, slayer buff, buffs in general) Customizable max/comp capes Max guild located somewhere at home (or not) which has everything you want and only accessible via cape tele (Sawmill guy, runespan tele, house portal, bank, GE, Instanced boss portal with ability to join other peoples sessions and tele to nex without needing key, Bank right next to a fire that never goes out to cook/add logs to, way to tele to farming patches ideally tree patches, Both alters, decanter next/close to bank, thieving stall that has a chance of giving stuff like magic seeds, rune bars and other things like that so maxed people can make mid tier easy money and also filling that ge up,) Working quick chat, ability to show off boss killcounts Daily challenges that give SoF tickets/xp in exchange for the amount of whatever resource required More skill boosting outfits like mining golem, artisians, blacksmiths. Also skill boosting gear like crystal fishing rod, hatchet etc that give additional xp on top of normal gains (A take on the Wise perk) Allow master capes to perfom their respected emote Allow Skillcapes to boost their corresponding stat Allow ironmen to toggle whether they can be attacked or not in the wilderness as its pretty useless since they cant pick up drops and its very very rude to kill an ironman. And with that said maybe make their unique revenant drops show publicly straight away to prevent sneaky people from farming them 24/7 safely Add the Gold Accumulator to dung store I'll add more if I can think of them Edited August 1, 2018 by Enzyme Additions 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyle 63 Posted August 1, 2018 Share Posted August 1, 2018 1. Where did you find Ely? What site if you can remember? I came from RSPS2, which I started playing in April of 2016. 2. What made Ely stand out to you & why? I love the 718 time period, and the developer/owner actually created and fix things the player base mentions. Updates are frequent and of good quality. 3. What features do you love the most in Ely or don't & why? I wish bugs got fixed faster and I wish we polled more changes to the game before they were made, but it's still the best source I've ever played on. And finally.. 4. What would you like to see from Ely in the future & why? I want to see the playerbase grow, the updates to be player-polled content, and I'd like to see more unique content come out because I want this server to grow and become number 1 overall for 718s.

meme daddy 10 Posted August 4, 2018 Share Posted August 4, 2018 1. Where did you find Ely? What site if you can remember? I found it on runelocus 2. What made Ely stand out to you & why? After joining the welcome messages made it feel more personal than most of the big servers. I also liked the amount of bosses (I'm primarily a PvMer). I was also super impressed by the number of random mobs in their accurate locations. 3. What features do you love the most in Ely or don't & why? Naturally, I love the bosses in Ely. I also like that you have to work for a lot of items in PvM to get them yourself, but this comes at a cost. The economy is pretty stagnant except for a few notable items, and it makes the mid/early game pretty difficult. 4. What would you like to see from Ely in the future & why? I would love to see an Ely recreation of Telos the Warden and an expansion to Dungeoneering to make it closer to the real thing! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boats 254 Posted August 5, 2018 Share Posted August 5, 2018 1. Where did you find Ely? What site if you can remember? From good ol zarpor 2. What made Ely stand out to you & why? Same source I remembered. Decent community at the start. 3. What features do you love the most in Ely or don't & why? Still hate the bots counting for players online, feels like false advertising tbh. GE buying was also a large turn off for me. Being able to buy items from varietys of stores is cool, adding more of that for ironmen woulda been cool. Don't agree with some decisions you have made as an owner, but overall very good owner. Push Matt more ;) 4. What would you like to see from Ely in the future & why? Keep with updates, easy to get into a no update slump, and it's really hard to come back from it. If you do have prolonged absences from shit like that, don't bullshit the community, just tell em straight up. Gl with it as time goes on Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marzera 25 Posted October 24, 2018 Share Posted October 24, 2018 1. Where did you find Ely? What site if you can remember? Youtube, a RS Youtuber made a video on RSPS, and I scrolled through the comment section. Ely was the first one I saw. 2. What made Ely stand out to you & why? I think we ALL know why I stayed. My one true love Super Mystery Boxes 3. What features do you love the most in Ely or don't & why? SUPER MYSTERY BOXES But really, the large amount of Teleport options. Being able to access almost any area with a quick command makes it easier to enjoy the game with my playstyle. And finally.. 4. What would you like to see from Ely in the future & why? More PvM content is always my vice, get some custom weapons and armor of higher tiers. A server I've recently picked up has a bunch of monsters from Quests and Dungeoneering as regular fights throughout the world. They have unique drops, higher stats than their Official Server counterpart. If only I knew how to code. Or if I had the time, eesh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kutanaga 62 Posted July 16, 2019 Share Posted July 16, 2019 (edited) 1. Where did you find Ely? What site if you can remember? I don't remember the exact website but I found it off one of the vote-page sites 2. What made Ely stand out to you & why? Unlike some, it's not cluttered with ugly custom things. All of the customs I've ever seen on Ely are tasteful and neat. The time it takes to gain xp and level up is very nice (on normal). It's a little grind but not too easy that you get all 99's instantly. I enjoy the smaller community (though bigger would always be cool too) because everyone seems to have a fairly good relationship with others. People joke with each other all the time. The home in Ely is a nice simple hub for people to hang out and afk. No but seriously it's a nice simple place that's not cluttered for people to hang out and chat... do some skilling, buy/sell in ge (which btw I love the ge) or whatever. I enjoy that this server isn't forcing players to feel like they have to do certain things. I've noticed some servers are focused on bossing, raids, pvp, gambling, etc. Ely is very neutral and allows players to have the freedom to do whatever they like whenever they like. I also enjoy the newer giveaways on Discord. It's a fun way to get players a little active and hope they win something big. I've never been one to gamble much or at all but knowing that just by entering a drawing you could win something cool is really awesome. No risk of losing anything. I also enjoy the staff very much. They've all been very helpful and nice whenever I've spoken with anyone. I could probably list more things I enjoy but I won't make this wall of text longer than it has to be. I will say lastly though that Ely over the years has definitely been my absolute favorite server to have ever played on. I've tried quite a few over time and nothing competes. It just surprises me more players don't play Ely. They don't know what they're missing. 3. What features do you love the most in Ely or don't & why? I love the new Easy mode addition. Especially for new players that want to get right into the nitty gritty without spending too much time on one skill. I don't really like the prices of some things in the shop. I understand the more op the armor or cool the custom is, it should cost more. But paying over $100 for a set or a single custom seems a bit.... much. I'd love to have some customs but I would never pay that much for one. I know people that currently have a lot of customs would probably be against the idea of lowering the $ of customs since it would devalue their bank.. But it's just my opinion. I love that this server has achievements. I've always loved them on consoles and stuff. The only thing I dislike about them are the rewards. Whenever I go to claim a finished achievement, I get like... a few potions. Like..... wut. If I work that hard to get a ton of xp in a skill to complete an achievement I should get something worthwhile. 4. What would you like to see from Ely in the future & why? I don't know how this would work but more ways to make money without destroying the economy. I really loved when Ruins first came out and I got some good drops, sold, made bank. I think more additions like this would be really cool to incorporate new items into the game. It seems like for brand new players thieving is always the go-to to make money. Which is good and all but once players get 99 they typically stop there. So how else to make money after that? Sure, there is bossing, gambling, etc. As a player that almost only does skilling I've been fairly limited on what I could do to make money. That's why doing the Ruins to make money was pretty cool. There was the bit of suspense from knowing if you die you lose all your things but at the same time, the enemies weren't too difficult or anything that it made me feel unsafe. What I'm getting at is that I think maybe in the future more regions could be made with different skill levels for new players and anyone else could go to and make money fairly easy. Nothing too op of course. Also side note, please never add pikachus to this server. I'll shoot myself Edited July 16, 2019 by kutanaga 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kenpachi 1 Posted February 10, 2020 Share Posted February 10, 2020 Here just to repost what I've said in the forums: Just to buzz in. I haven't played this server for any long time, but what I have noticed in the last 10 years of playing a shit ton of rsps is that: -rs3 based servers are not worth it and all the same -718/rs2 based servers are slowly becoming less populair, outside of onyx which has almost 100% old school content with a nice twist to it and exora, which got a lot of well implemented custom content. -since osrs released, the os rsps are the biggest and most played source out there at this moment. With the 500+ ugly customs one with these not logical high donator prices untill the ones like ikov or atlas, which both have a lot of real osrs content in them. I think that a server needs to be well balanced between pvm, skilling and even maybe a bit of pvp. What I felt the day I started playing was that a lot of people are afk or bank standing and the game does not really feel very different from most other rsps I have played over the last years. It will probably feel a bit unique in the end game with some custom items. Besides this, there is a big focus on these custom monthly mystery boxes with the 'special' items and too less of a focus on updating, changing and evolving with time 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
