Too lazy to edit, not too lazy to explain why making a new post instead of editing. Huh?

Anyone realize how ridiculous it is to put microtransactions on top of a monthly membership cost and THEN add in a tiered membership-package? On top of FOUR ways to Rwt? Well not rwt, but still they offer IN GAME BENEFITS for paying money in one way or another****?

It really feels like IVP/Jagex is trying to squeeze out every bit of money they can out of the playerbase.

What happened to your irl status shouldnt affect your gameplay? What happened to only offering cosmetic things (and not things that alter game play) to the SOG? Being a normal p2p member (for years..consistently) isnt good enough for you now?

I understand that you're a business and its YOUR JOB TO MAKE MONEY. I understand that things change as a company adapts... but is it so hard to have some sort of plan that doesnt involve the appearance of flailing around trying to grasp at anything that'll sucker in money?

Please dont thin Im some raving brat either. I love this game. Ive played through the ups and downs since 04 and I love the EoC (even though I thought it was awkward at first) PoP and other goodies you guys bust your butts on to offer us... I do. But this is ridiculous.

Edit:
And dont think that none of us pay attention. Not even a few years ago the player base would have screamed bloody murder if you did this.. So you add Loyalty points. Sneak in RaF. Then Sof, but only if you skill, then add in the fact you can buy spins.. then add in SOG then give SOG things that ARENT COSMETIC as you first promised.
...
...
I'll just ask: How long before we see the option to buy rsgp?

No savings here, it would cost me three months extra....

It makes me so sad that you have turned your focus to the almighty dollar rather than actual game play. Fix the glitches, get rid of the bots, improve your servers. Quality of quantity will sustain you much further into the future. At this rate all you'll be left with is silly teenagers who will loose interest in 3 months.

Today on Runescape: Jagex slaps its loyal players in the face with their ugly disgusting kocks. They are essentially telling loyal players that they are worth less than anyone willing to pay additional money to a dying company

Keeping around ignorant, gullible children willing to spend 200 dollars a year on spins and useless cosmetics is just much more economical for Jagex and IVP.

A loyal member, of 5,6,7 years who should be the most important bracket in runescape, would normally only fund the game with 60 dollars a year. We are nearly worthless in the eyes of Jagex as we provide them the least amount of the only thing that drives them; money.

Updates to squeal of fortune and Solomons General Store at least twice a week. Promotional experience or other item at least once a week.

Loyalty bonuses? once every two months give or take. Loyalty is no longer considered. The content of the game is no longer considered.

Jagex and IVP do not care about membership even though that is why there company was able to become what it is today.

In the future: solomons/squeal updated 3 times a week.
Bonus xp events every week.
ability to buy in game items that affect gameplay (SGS Pets)
Multi tiered memberships honoring the wealthiest of players.
A broken class system within runescape dependent upon IRL status
A game that has lost all of its morals and runs solely on Microtransactions

I have 2 big issues with this

First off i just renewed my membership for 6 months a few days before this came out...

Second thing : i already bought maxed bank with rscoins

so... i guess i won't get the silver package

and will you refund the rscoins used by players to buy maxed bank if they buy the gold package?

im with a lot of people that have said the issue about the loyal members not getting the benefits as those that buy the packages and prepaid cards.
I have been a recurring member for 18 months now on one credit card, thats not to say i have also been a member before that with a different credit card. so where is my benefits that those buying the prepaid cards and buying the packages that lock you into a x-amount of months get? kinda irritates me to know that jagex is rewarding those that get new memberships with new items and xp bonuses and such but could really careless for those that have been faithful to this game for almost several yrs. i just dont feel like its even close to being fair to those loyal members.
