Yes RoM is the definition of a WoW clone.

With the exception of dual classes

I'm not sure I'd describe RoM as a 'copy' or a 'clone' but it's clear from where Runewaker took their inspiration.

RoM's design was "inspired" by WoW <- Dev interview from awhile back

Well ture but ROM is a nerfed version of wow

I absolutely hate when players or people say that a game is a clone of another game, all mmo's are based on other mmos. it's a mmorpg for christs sake. of course they're going to be similar. However WoW wasn't the first mmo out there folks, maybe you should do some researching. Where do you think WoW got their stuff? You're correct other mmorpg's. So does that make WoWa Ragnarok clone? In the terms of your logic, it does.

Ehhh people would be lazy and not reserch

I don't get why I'm even responding to this but w/e (never browsed the forums for runescape anyway)

I used to love runescape, there were times I'd put it down and come back to it again later on (1-3 months both on and off at times), the main thing that I enjoyed was the freedom that you had with it, you could do anything or be anything you wanted to be without any hassle outside of taking more time in it to excel in other areas if you devoted more time towards other skills or trying to make money.

Questing was great, in fact I envy it for being as good as it was in comparison to any other mmorpg, but then again was it really a mmorpg at times? By far I have to say it was and wasn't at times but then again the world was large enough with actual content in it outside of just combat. You could actually do GATHERING skills outside of areas filled with mobs for the most part, instead of having to worry if you wanted to do or not do combat you could do anything without having to use combat if you so desired to.

What killed it for me was EoC, that thing was what felt like the nail in the coffin for me, it felt weird and unnecessary, what runescape had was simplicity rather than complexity that worked towards it's advantage in many things, I enjoyed how combat was and weapon specials were the one thing that was also going for it before hand too (and they took those out), could talk to someone while doing a slayer task or just farting around, now everyone just seemed to be more into clan chat or speaking to other friends while doing skilling or focused on combat instead of being able to talk, needless to say, unlike "social" games on facebook, runescape was more successful at being a social game than any of those ever managed to be.

I think it's fair to say you bring many new threads to read on the forums, if only even one of them contained any merit however, that would be a different story.
