osrsf2p Posted January 24, 2023 Posted January 24, 2023 Checking if there is anyone here that has some knowledge surrounding very old accounts recoveries.. I have recovered an account that is from the 2001-2002 era. Logging in to the account on RS3 of course prompted me to pick a new name since the login ID is a short IRL name but the account was also a completely fresh lvl 3 on tutorial island, how come? I am almost certain the account was played on before because I found it through old RS fansites/forums from back in 2002-2003. Is this because when RS2 was first launched your RSC character and all of its stats/items would be converted upon login? And since this account has never even played RS2 the conversion from RSC never happened? Unfortunately I can't even check RSC at this point since Jagex killed it off. I assume the chance that Jagex would restore the RSC stats/items to RS3 upon request is low. Anyway, the Hans dialogue states that the account was created 7636 days ago, which is the cap on account age. Tracking started on 27 February 2002, the day memberships were released. All accounts older than this will show that day as their creation date. Any insight would be cool.
