really jagex? why wasn't i and the rest of the world informed that they changed the definition of exclusive?

exclusive

ex·clu·sive ADJECTIVE

Definition

1. high-class: limited to a group of people, especially one considered fashionable or wealthy
"an exclusive club"

2. selective: excluding or intending to exclude many from participation or consideration

3. restricted in use: only available to or used by one person, group, or organization
"Members have exclusive use of the pool."

4. appearing in one place: published or broadcast in only one place
"exclusive coverage"

5. sole: being the only one
"Bicycles are the exclusive means of transport in the city center."

6. excluding other things: focused or targeted on one thing only
"exclusive attention"

7. not including stated numbers: not including the numbers, dates, or other series members mentioned immediately before

8. commerce restricting trade: restricting trade in some goods or services only to those who have signed the contract or agreement

9. logic where both cannot be true: describes a proposition disjunction where one alternative rules out the other, e.g. being an odd number rules out the possibility of being an even number.



having them available again for a limited time or for a select few is one thing that still fits within the definition as not just anybody can get them. having them permenantly available for anybody does not fit within the definition and therefore you are FRACKING LIERS!!!!!!!!! normally i stand by everything you do even if i dont like it but this is a blatent lie and i will not tolerate this kind of behavior toward your players. i am not requesting this, this is an order, you will give the overrides to people who have the items, you will remove them from solomons after a period of 2 weeks, and you will never pull bullcrap like this again. if you fail to comply or respond as to why it is not possible i will begin persuing a class action lawsuit against you. good day to you.

I find this update absolutely enraging... You have now taken away almost everything that players who purchased the gold membership package had exclusively.. I personally purchased the Gold package because 1, it was convenient, and 2, the cosmetics.. I still have over half of my coins for the Solomons store. There is literally no benefit of purchasing the gold membership package now (If it was still available). I don't support Solomons Store because you can not gain Runecoins in game. When a player has to pay for an item (through Microtransaction) they can not achieve in game (Actual gameplay such as pvm/skilling) it starts to destroy the game. This is just Real World Trading in a different form.. SOF is nearly as bad considering you can buy xp and items, but you can get spins in game, so it's a little better.. Either way, this takes away from the loyal players that were willing to pay a little extra for a years worth of membership. I hate to sound like I'm making myself royalty, but it's going to sound like that.. But we (The players that purchased the Gold Membership package) deserve more.

My thoughts exactly!!!

Well i for one will be boycotting all future items. I have (i am sure Jagex can check this for themselves) been a huge supporter of not only these exclusive items, but solomons store. Unless this is corrected and we are given the option to trade in the inferior items for the cosmetic overlay's in solomons i will no longer be buying any of these in the future. In fact when my membership runs out at the end of the year i will be letting my membership run out.

I feel as if this company just lied to my face to get me to spend money on the game buying over a years worth of membership. I got not only several of these 3 month cards, but also the premier club membership for the year. I was disappointed to see they were *** cosmetic overlay's at the time, but got them as they were the only option. Had i known i could have saved myself the money on my membership AND got the cosmetic overlay of these items. I would not have bought them at the time of release, and simply waited till now.

I have played since 2001 as such i pay at a lower rate then most new players, and yet i still invested money in these cards, and the premier club. So your choice is simple offer people who own these items already to exchange them for their overlay counterpart or loose the hundreds of dollars in business i bring to the table on a regular basis. I will no longer buy membership, solomons store items, exclusive game card items, or anything from the Jagex store.

Seriously? After causing controversy over playing fast and lose with the word "exclusive", they do it again one update later? xD

It's as if they feed off of controversy.
