the price of buying premium with bonds is almost double the price of buying it with real money (24 bonds ~ 120 dollars) which is quite crazy really... although they will be getting tons of profit >_> along with player dissatisfaction.... good job jagex

Right, except no one is going to buy 24 bonds with real cash and then redeem the bonds on premier club. What's the point? They could just buy premier club...
If you're talking about having to buy 24 bonds with in-game currency then it still doesn't make sense, it won't cost you $120 at all, it'll cost you up to 200m GP.

It cost a 24% more than buying 2 x 6 normal subscription*****'s a lot just for Forum badge. I\'m an OSRS player only if you can\'t tell.

I\'ll probably buy it to show Jagex that I\'m committed to OSRS.
While I\'m at it. Please give more focus to OSRS. We need a lot higher priority than current one with engine and web teams.


I've thought about it. I'll still play the OSRS but since gold swapping is still allowed buying Premier membership isn't worth it. It's a lot more expensive and you only (for OSRS player) get forum badge. It basically say "Super Supporter".

Since I'm not extremely supportive for Jagex since they turned RS3 into pay to win. While also they can't make OSRS fair enough (gold swapping). It's not worth it for me.

I'll pay for my OSRS membership when it'll be close to running out for 6 or 12 months instead.

You are basically getting 1 year of membership, but for paying *10 extra you get a few additional things such as outfits, new items (and old) that were promotional only, and a chat/forum badge to show that you paid the amount you did (I'm talking about only the Gold package).

Personally I bought it, and I like it. Yeah I wish there were more things (maybe such as emotes for events missed that could be included such as the Battle for Lumbridge event), but that's up to the Jagex team on if they want to add more in or not.

Overall, I find it a good deal.

sheesh wish I had done the math first. plus if I knew the skypouncer outfit was going to be like pulling teeth to get. That and what if an acct already has a bloodpouncer?
the way it looks I am only saving 9 dollars and cents on a year package.


sincerely,

stupid enough to buy 2 yearly packages
one for each acct.

ps next year gonna really look at this. on the list of things I got the clown mask, and capoeira outfit........ and the bloodpouncer . My other acct already had a bloodpouncer. neither one has yet to recieve the skypouncer outfit.

I Must say I'm very disappointed with this year's gold membership. I was actually looking forward to it's return but then I see the price has gone up from last year significantly, and the removal of runecoins in favor of loyalty points is a complete dealbreaker for me (as well as many others it would seem, and rightfully so).
