-How did you guys get the idea, and when?
#1 A few months ago i went to buy something on ebay when it struck me and my friends that wouldnt a ebay for runescape be pretty fun to do? so it happened we decided to make eScape

-How long did it take to make the website?
#2 it took us about 2 1/2 months to make this site, when we first got this script it was all crap nothing we neaded had to recode it all, special thanks to G0ldenGunG

-How exactly does it work? Do you guys get a cut of the money?
#3 Our services work very easiely you make a username it sends you a password, and its easy as that, just click Post New item and your set
atm our services are Free we really dont want money we just want to be as sucessfull as Runevillage or any other large Rs forum

-Are there any secrutity issues as of right now?
#4 No there isnt any security issues, our host is extreamly secure. -If it all works, are you guys prepared for the site to be very popular?
#5 Hell ya! we are very ready for this to be huge, atm once we hit 100 members (45 atm as of March 10) we will be apointing Auction Mods and Forum Mods :0 We are putting our money together to buy a .com and a $300 script.

-Will you guys add content or is it strictly auctioning?
#6 When we buy our .com we might add content who knows.

-What do you think this will mean to runescape? Will it add to the economy or subtract from it?
#7 If eScape becomes popular this could change everything, and add a whole look to runescape selling and buying, im sure you all been in varrock for 2 hours wondering for a great deal, with eScape anything could be as low as you would dream This could affect Runescape who knows.

-What is jagex position on off-Rs trading with Gp and Runescape items?
#8 Jagex is fine with this idea as long as we dont sell items for real money, its just like buying a item on the marketboards on RV.

- Jumara3 CO-OWNER OF eScape
- G0ldenGunG CO-OWNER OF eScape
- AxMan - CO-OWNER OF eScape

Myself I think that this site will grow extremely fast when they manage to buy their own .COM Currently their running of Gamming Rocket.net's domain. As Jumara said Jagex has no problem with these auctions aslong as their Runescape Money for items. And they will not tolerate acount selling at eScape. The Mod status currently is only 4. But when the site hits 100 users they will be hiring mods as Jumara said, and you will need atleast a post count of 50.

As for the site growing fast, we will just have to wait and see.
