I am actually very impressed with the Premier Club setup this year. I've had my issues with Jagex in recent years but this is definitely somewhere that I have to give them major credit. This was the first year I ever bought Premier with bonds (which is good, given my current IRL financial situation) but even if I couldn't have swung the bond payments, I definitely would have gotten Premier this year. First off, I understand some of the complaints regarding the removal of the bronze and silver packages but since the new setup is so affordable and such a good deal, I really don't mind. That said, I do think that similar deals to previous bronze and silver should be offered around the middle of summer, just to make things easier for everyone.

Anyways, on to the positivity: I really appreciate just how good of a deal this setup is. Not only is it a fair price (even for those who were fortunate enough to not have been locked out) but it offers some of the best benefits since the very first Premier Club. What's more is that I like how it offers some help toward things like the Golden Partyhat event. As long as it's just help, and not something you have to have to get the Partyhat, I think that's fantastic as it gets back to the core of Premier Club which, at least in my opinion, was always meant to be a way of rewarding the players who enjoy the game enough to buy membership for the whole year in advance.

I also like the cosmetics, as they work well with last year's rewards; I was able to blend the two to create a really cool costume for my character, which is something I haven't really been able to do with previous years, so that's a major plus. I think all rewards going forward should be more connected like that, as it gives a greater incentive for people to buy it every year.

And finally, I just wanted to quickly mention that the new Marketplace UI for Premier Club is fantastic and a great way to help remind Premier Club members of all of the benefits.

Bravo Jagex!

Yeah, me aswell. Not only we've got fair price for the Premier Club, but we got some clear situation with Treasure Hunter.

This was kinda triggered by UK Gov regarding the gambing problems.
But still :
- We no longer have limited items available in TH
- We can get more keys daily from daily rewards, as well more from just playing
- We can choose between economy and experience while picking rewards (lamps and stars vs papers, springs, dungeoneering tokens)
- You can no longer have 200 mil gp (or it's multiplications) from treasure hunter, which poured tons of gold into economy for no reason
- Oddments are now more accesible and you can buy cool rewards from it

Still not huge fan of bonus xp from yak track which crashed bond price out of nowhere.

Yeah, this is one of the rare situations where governments getting involved was actually a good thing. It just sucks that they don't get involved in scummy FOMO schemes like Yak Track... but I digress, this is a Compliments thread.

When did bonds crash? I'd be interested in, umm, "taking advantage" of a low price on bonds to stock up for the future haha

I feel like due to the price for the annual, we automatically got that grandfathered rate O_o .
