Soon in a few months, not just yet
But they did say something about if the population is decent, they will leave it at same rate, but if the population is ok/not that good, then they will add an extra 5 dollars(13 US dollars) to the regular membership fee.
Everything about this is on the FAQ

Can I just pay the OSRS fee and not the EoC fee?

Nope Vio, you have to pay for both. Im not trying to defend jagex or anything but you guys can't deny the fact that they actually need additional funds to cover the cost for the new dedicated 07 server and airconditional fees for the server room. Bth i dont mind paying em a little more as im grateful that they acutally brought 07 server, can't complaint more.

You guys are dumb, they won't increase the price on something that half there subscribers play, there is no new evidence that suggests they will, only what they said when they first released the servers.

I think if anything they will include osrs with eoc membership but we might have a raise in that cost eventually by $2. 
That way they get money from everyone and not just one game.
They are in this to make money after all.
Honestly they would be a bit crazy to kill off the clan world again.

If they increase the membership fee, RS is basically done for unless HTML5 saves it...

So uhhh... obviously WG can't die because WG, but.. what happens when RuneScape dies? o.O

Dear King Stevie,
Old School RuneScape has been running for more than 3 months, so now is a good time to talk about the future...
We're committed to Old School RuneScape for the long term and plan to run the service for many years to come. When Old School RuneScape launched, we said membership would cover access for the first 6 months, then we'd review the pricing. Rather than wait for September we've made the decision that will be no increase in cost for the next year, potentially much longer.
We will continue to support Old School RuneScape's development and community, giving you, the players, what you want. Look out for our regular polls for feature updates, where you can give us your ideas and suggestions.
Thank you for your ongoing support.
