RS would be fun, but the dedicated predators, young 10 year olds acting tough over the keyboard, harassment, etc, etc. I would not doubt RS has had the same if not more, or just enough to be considered very close to wow, player wise in its history of existence.

WOW, RS and any game thats played online do not have 9 million players all together, that 9 million is an estimated number in comprehension to how many accounts there have ever been from the start year of the game to the current year. Over 1/3rd of those accounts have been deactivated, banned, etc, etc.
