I have to ask you Jagex, how do you come up with the dumbest contests ever? I mean like, seriously! I had to grind araxxor in december after work trying to get a bow so i could get enough bonds to buy my year premier club packages and now you guys make it impossible for me to enter the contest since i did not buy it via paypal.

This is utterly dumbfounded and i cannot even enter it if i wanted to all because you guys can't put together a player friendly contest. This is exactly the same as the "Elfie" contest where you lock out players who might have not unlocked elf city yet. This is worse however since i cannot even if i tried since my premium membership was bought via bonds.

It's stupid and you guys should be ashamed of yourselves.

Remember, if you don't have the outfit, no need to worry - just get a pic with someone that has the outfit on.
No words can express to you just how incredible an influence this one sentence can have on your contest's results. If you would simply add this to the FAQ's original post, you'd get significantly less hate about Paypal exclusivity.

Does paparazzi-ing people into your photos count?

Jagex I have literally lost even more respect for you with this. Most contests don't require you to pay money to even enter. I mean I know you can take a picture of someone else, but that's just conniving.

You just put yourself in a very bad customer service situation. An exclusive contest that requires you to spend around $80 for a $50 gift card to an already controversial place (Apple is a bunch of money grubbing idiots abusing dumber people).

When you maybe make premier club at least reasonable for the grandfathered people maybe we will look at buying it not for contests because we want content. Why pay $87 for a year when I can pay $60 and not need any of the "extras" and force a contest on requiring spending real money through pay pal. It's sad when the members icon is still better than the premier.

Jagex you are shooting yourself in the foot even worse than the intro of Squeal of Fortune.
