Usually I'm against the anti-SGS ramble since its mostly the same arguments rehashed. But even I have to say this is kind of a low blow for the people with gold premium, as well as those that obtained the item through membership card promotions.

One of your major hitch lines for gold premium was the fact that people had a second chance at these previously unobtainable items. So a good number of people put in a pretty chunk of cash for this option (as well as some of the others). But now you pretty much rip the rug out from under them, and the 'these items have been out for a fair length of time' argument is pretty cheap considering premium has only been an option for how long?

And lets not ignore those who bought the membership card promotion. You already took away some of the whole point of going out of their way to buy membership cards at the time those items were offered when you through it into premium. But at least that was for the few who decided to show a dedication to RS through buying a year of membership + benefits through premium package. Now you've just completely ruined the whole point of ever buying it.

Judging by this I certainly won't be going off of any 'exclusive deals' offered in the future. I'll just wait until you sell it at a later date. Also, the 'if this is even possible' comment I've seen thrown about for the pleas for a free override for those who already have this item in one form or another, is also pretty low. I think anyone in their right mind is possible, considering all the amazing...and not so amazing things you've done in the past.

I'll pay 100 bucks if i could only be present in one single meeting where decisions like these are made. A new low point in squeezing out more money! *sigh

PS: Forget about the money i am willing to spend. I don't wanna make you think about new "offers"

Jagex probably thinks this will pass, just like all the other times they done stuff too create anger.
Jagex probably thinks a discussion considering a few minor cosmetics won't matter much.

What they oversee is that it isn't the update that offended the mayority of us, but their gesture and false promisses. There was a time the community did actually matter. Now all they care about is more money. They learned that we will continue playing. I admit, i like the game far too much to quit because of such a decision. I just wish that for once we could and would actually stand up. stand up to a level that they can't ignore us anymore and will be forced to reconsider their dissicions. Show them that they underestimate their horde of sheeps. However even then they would implement changes for profit and not for us. (just like the '07 servers). They know they can do this. I just hope Jagex realises they made a lot of us don't care for them anymore.

Very dissappointed Jagex. I bought gold premium because I am a fan of this game and an avid collector so having certain objects people could not easily get ahold of was fun for me. It seems I'll heavily reconsider buying anything else from you guys.

I cant even express how disgusted I am by this. For some odd reason I actually feel betrayed. I've always been a Jagex fanboy, usually being able to see the light in their decisions. But this one, you've undermined your most loyal consumer base. And that's just not okay.

No game update this week (except for gambling big fix)

Yet the Real World Traders get an update.

Clear sign where Jagex's priorities are.

Also another blow for those who believed Jagex and bought premium membership.
