The 2007 Anniversary was a series of RuneScape 2 events held to celebrate the 4th birthday of the Wilderness Guardians. It consisted of 8 events in late 2007.[1]
The exact structure of the 2007 anniversary has mostly been lost to history, as the section of the Z6 forums pertaining to it had all its content deleted by the time Vio (as the clan Historian) gained access to it in 2010. The events are believed to have been held around early December of 2007 - the second drop party event is recorded as the last drop party before Jagex removed free trade from RuneScape, which occurred on 10 December 2007. As anniversary days generally have between 2 and 4 events, it is reasonable to presume the 2007 anniversary lasted for at least 2 days. The first three events after the Veteran War were open to non-clan member players, and is likely that they were all held on the same day based on the website gallery captions.
During His Lordship's holiday to Europe in January 2008, Dorcha3377 (Jenny, the next-in-charge staff member) attempted to host some anniversary events - it is not clear why, if the 2007 anniversary had already been completed.[2]
