This stuff, that people got via exclusive promotions and when worn makes you feel original and different in a way compared to the masses, is now being sold in the SGS..

Are you serious ? Even I find that below standards.. This exclusivity isn't really that exclusive. What's next ?

Thanks. I don't think I'll ever by them though, but I guess there's always a chance. All I've gotten so far is green skin outta shear luck of obtaining a game card off a friend and couple of emotes from the free runecoins. Wish I could've afforded premium gold membership or something as well. Oh well.

P.S.
Sounds like you messed up with this dragon keepsake/skin stuff. I said from nearly day 1 of solomon that all cosmetics needed to be cosmetic overrides for free... Now you got angry screwed over customers because of your incosistenancies and not thinking and whatnot. I say refund the dragon keepsakes and make em free.

Not really one of the updates i've waited for. :( now all of my items (turkey hat, flaming skull, scarecrow mask and barbed bow , wich i got from my gold premier club membership.) are useless as it can be put in S.G.S. and ofcourse not exclusive. SO COME ON ! ATLEAST PUT AN ADD TO COSTUMISATION OPTION! WHY PAY FOR ITEMS YOU ALREADY OWN?!?!?!?
and all those people who have bought dragon keepsake boxes? and used then on one of these items?? will they get thier money or atleas points back? or being able to re-colour it?

I WANT ANSWERS!

Many people are asking for free overrides for the items they (me included) have from being vet players or premium members. Many people, mods and commutes alike, have no idea how this would work, but I have a small patch idea that might help. How about updating the dragon keepsake box to fit 5+ of each body part (gloves, helm, boots, etc) and give the players free keys to use their cosmetic items on. All that would take is a little fiddling (I think, as I am not a programmer) to make the items compatible and the box expanded. We don't even need like 6 free keys, only 2-3 for our favorite pieces (flaming skull and katana for me :P ) or have the keys only usable on these cosmetic items to just clear bank space and move to customization screen (kinda like dragon box, but a different setup for cosmetics only, because the few here now are not going to be the only ones for long).
Consider those few ideas if they could help in the dilemma, it would help keep valued and contributing players, and it would not fully hurt anyone financially.
Another argument I keep seeing is "already paid, why pay again" and the responses are most "make better financial decisions". I only half agree. When the premium was released we only had a short(ish) time to sign up, thus somewhat feeling pressured. If anyone had known everything in the premium pack was coming out eventually as cosmetic overrides and such, most would not have signed up in the first place (I know I wouldn't have). I understand Jagex is not a charity, but it shouldn't be seen as a large medieval tax collector (will take money form peasants or wreck shop if they can't pay, i.e large money tyrants) either. I enjoy the game, but taking advantage of your players is kinda unfair to all of us.

Thanks for reading, and hope something can get worked out for us contributing/veteran players soon! :D

How many times per year will they re-release "limited time" items from 2011? This is the 3rd time since their convention after RuneFest, the Platinum Membership, now Solomon Store - all offering the exact same item and only proving never trust Jagex at their word.

"Limited Time" only means you will be paying twice the price now for something they will only re-release for half off several times later in the year.

I wonder when they plan on ruining more so-called "limited time" or "rare" items such as Tree Hat, Fish Mask, Santa Hat, H'ween Mask, Party Hat, Scythe, Yo-yo, Bunny Ears.

You know, I really doubt we'll get runecoins or anything else as a refund. I just can't see it happening. I don't think we'll get anything but the condescending "You had your chance to be elite and ahead of the pack" garbage.

I'll be watching for my Flaming skull skin override. Since this has already blown up in the Solomon developers departments faces.


To be honest this thread of only 200 or so replies will not change them.
It takes almost 100k of threads of hate and jagex never changed the EOC. They don't like us it's clear more than ever.
