What I find amusing is the "Terms and Conditions" alluded to on the announcement post (fast link here: http://services.runescape.***/m=forum/l=0/sl=0/forums***?294,295,115,64148404). The first post in terms and conditions is quite long but the second is the most interesting and quite hillarious:
"Premier Club Specific competition Terms & Conditions
Details will be announced soon. All players who purchase the gold membership will be entered automatically."
LOL - Are you serious?!?!?!? Terms and conditions "to be announced" for a package you are trying to sell?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?
I think Jagex's gouge-o-matic is stuck in overdrive with the after-burners running wide open.
People - this can be modified in any way they see fit. They could decide you have to be wearing yellow on a Tuesday with 2 left-footed Adidas shoes. Most legal advisors would likely suggest to stay away from such a "scam" that does not publish ALL terms and conditions UP FRONT.
*edit* - remember they have sold many of these packages already so those people have entered into a binding yet "modifiable" (by Jagex only) contract. I feel bad for them in falling for the "terms and conditions" loophole crap being foisted upon them. Of course they could have read it in advance, but let's face it... a large portion of the player base consists of "minors" (not of legal age) and therefore may not have the street-smarts to read the finer points of contracts.... Jagex knows this and seems to exploit this little tidbit.
#2 - I love how they filter out their own address lol. You can refer to the link on the first post of this thread under "terms and conditions".
