It's a business tactic guys. Think about it this way:
You buy this 90 day card to get the item. Sweet. What's not so sweet is that you have a recurring membership on your credit card. So what happens? You stop your credit card subscription because you bought this card and you're going to have 3+ months of credit. Not only do they get more money from the card, but in the end, if you decide to restart your credit card subscription, it will be the new fee, which is (I think) around *7 for the US.
So yes, it's a tactic for them to get more money. It's business.

tbh i find this pretty sad as you guys can make such an item with real flames but cant upgrade the glowing gaze from the loyalty program to what its supposed to be like on the picture make existing things better before you create something new in my opinion

Good day fellow runescapers and jagex ltd.
today i've read this news thread about the new in-game item called " Flaming Skull "
as soon when i read the news thread i clicked on " Store Locator ".
i saw that the 90 day membership card was available in the netherlands, at the store named bart smit, As soon as i found that out i went to the store and bought myself a 90 day membership card.
But when i redeemed my code... I never recieved any Flaming Skull.
I see that there are some countries listed above, but does that say if two players had bought the exact same card that just only one player in the Right country listed above will recieve the flaming skull? i think that is really unfair against the loyal players about me..
The store is located in the netherlands, the 90 day membership card is not diffrent then the card in one of the countries listed above...
I would really hope i am able to recieve the "Flaming Skull" after this,
because i payed €22.50 Real life valutas ( Just as the other players who actually recieved the skull. )
and i think it will be fair if i also would recieve the flaming skull on my account.
Cheers, your loyal rs veteran..

So instead of us just using a Debit/Credit card and ensuring that our membership stays active, you'd rather us go out and buy temporary memberships that would lead us to be more reluctant to continue our membership status? Why not make items like this available once you hit so many months of consecutive membership?

I also find these actions a bit more sickening each time.. If you re a loyal member for years, paying by credit card all the time, you get...nothing at all, but every few months there is a new action giving away item to ppl. who buy a xdays game card. And even then, not for everybody who does so but only in certain companies... Looks like Jagex does not like the recurring customers who pay by credit card, or live in certain countries as much as others that buy those cards and live :( in certain other countries...
