What does this "financial statement" have to do with jagex rereleasing old rares?

Last i checked, old untradeable rares havent been rereleased since the snow globe so...


What does it have to do? Should I remind you they are a for profit company? lol. I am done with you. For any other questions, please refer to my previous posts.

Personally I don't think that rares should be rereleased, instead they should all be tradeable to keep their status as a rare intact- or they can very well become inflated and be eventually quite common.



I disagree.

Untradeables should never become tradeable as just because you were active during a certain time doesnt mean you should get to make loads of money.

Plus how are things becoming inflated a good thing?


To feel triggered like that means that you most likely don't have any rares, and must spread your toxicity so that others can't get what you don't have.

Some rares are tradeable and most are discontinued. In my opinion there should not be any restrictions if a rare is tradeable or not, when people can trade Partyhats, Santa hats, Halloween masks etc. If they can be traded, why shouldn't every other rare be tradeable as well?


Well said! He does get triggered a lot though haha.

Why does everything need to be about money?

Whats so bad about having things just for looks and knowing you took part of a special event?

Thus ill never support anything thats untradeable being tradeable.

For example, I would love to get rid of my rares who are collecting dust in my bank to players who would appreciate them more and actually use them. An example is my 2008 Santa outfit and Candy Cane who would today be extremely sought-after due to how many new Christmas rares there have been created lately, and that it pairs well with the original red Santa hat.

I agree with this. Just because people weren't around at the time of release, shouldn't make them miss out forever.

I also think doing this would give people more things to work towards.

I feel like the problem is the community will always disagree on this.

Most newer players more often don't actually care about rares and have way more important things to care about (who has money to buy a rare cosmetic with no stats for 2b when t95s are ridiculously expensive, more old skills could become 120s, bonds are going up overtime so its nearing like 1b a year to keep membership etc...)

The only people who want old untradeable rares are ironmans (like me) who actually just want the ability to transfer them from a main (ie the ability to play with my yo-yo or Eek the spider again would be nice)

TL;DR:
You don't need the ability to sell them off for a cash injection, the people buying them won't get the same nostalgic memories from the old items.

Yet what would be the point in taking part in said events if you could just get the rewards later?

No to ever re-releasing old rares. It's a grind and part of the game to obtain.

When you think how long it takes to grind 5.6b (Obviously less time now days) Or A full master set of clue logs grinding for a rare is nothing compared to it. It's a MMORPG they're imeant to have end game grinds and goals.

The only salty part I have about them not bringing them back out is I can't obtain them on my iron but that's not the biggest deal imo.

I'm all for different coloured NEW rares much like the GSH. A Black partyhat wouldn't be a bad idea imo.

at the time of a event you dont assume it will be released a second time and it could be years before it is released, you dont sit there before or during the event saying to yourself,, " i am not gonna get this now cause i will can get it later"


nobody knows if any item would be released or when, a second time, so your entire statement is not valid

Ok but if you do know it will be rereleased, it makes going for things less worth it.

Some ppl dont care how long the time is as long as they get another chance im sure they'll be happy.

Plus who doesnt say that knowing they can? That seems like the most logically thing to think of to me.

the point of my statement is that the person doesnt know if or when it would be or could be re-released,

so at the time of it first appearing either you want it or you dont ,,,making it worth going after or not worth going after

you dont sit there saying i will get it later.... cause no body knows if it will or wont
