The first step was a petition, opened for votes on 21 December 2010. It was set up so that players who want the updates to be reverted had to provide their account name and place a "Yes" vote. There was no "No" option to vote against reverting the updates, though Jagex stated that players can oppose by simply not voting.
How I am not surprised they tried to rig the voting mechanics to favor the outcome they wanted

@snow we are not a anti-jagex site.
Well I meant more like - anti-Jagex sentiment may exist on fansites (a thread or 2 being posted in their forums or odd comments), but the intention of the sites themselves are not to be anti-Jagex in any way, just simply be a fansite of an awesome game.
this is from the Runescape wiki as well under Jagex.
Ace of Spades is a sandbox-style first-person shooter originally developed by former developers of Minecraft. The original developers decided to leave, and Jagex took over the remainder of the development. Its goal is to go against the cliches of most first-person shooters and create a unique experience.
there's so much wrong with this i'll let someone else tear it apart...

Can someone clear a few things up for me, because I'm pretty peeved about this whole situation. Did Jagex, or whichever company owns Jagex, forcefully takeover (however that may occur) Ace of Spades, or did Ben Aksoy himself give/sell them the game?
Ever since I had heard about the whole situation with Jagex, I've been under the impression that this was all Ben's fault (for selling/giving the rights to the game away). I just want to know if it was actually a forced takeover or not.
Well, I have had my signature taken down. And after a brief, honorable, discussion, they deemed BnS to be "Anti-Jagex" and "Supports Illegal Activities". That's too bad. Any ideas on how else to advertise?
Advertise anyways through subliminal messages, shameless plugs, and other things. Of course, dont make it obvious. Like the main purpose of the game is to buildandshoot, if you dont buildandshoot, you aren't doing it right.

You could copy+paste your signature into all of your posts.

Or you could do something cheeky like:
I love ace of spades because it let's me build and shoot. I also like websites too.
