I find it hard to justify the value of getting the gold package as I am grandfathered in at $5/month. I am a gold member this year but doubt I will be next. The extra key a day is nice if you manage to log in each day to claim it. Cosmetic changes are not worth the extra $48.

My my, 2 years loyal golden member for 65 euro's each year... and now I look at the 95 euro gold membership... I even get LESS than the first 2 years. The first year gave me tons more(including RuneCoins with alot worth) This year we all get waaay less. Why Jagex? I always support everything in this game.

I say give us more benefits or give us a price reduction. I would love the package at a lower price. Thanks.

hello dear Jagex,

i am sorry Jagex, but you promised to all the members of runescape that we don't needed to pay more for our membership if we already where members before the price change,
but now with the premium club you set the price on 94.99 €,
so this way the members still losses more money then before,
when you still are member from past year you can now buy 12 months membership for like 78.99€ so its not so fare,
would you consider to drop the price a bit for members that also bought the premium membership last year.
kind regards warior_f_god

Serious Jagex. After seeing the price for this years premier membership i'm for the 1st time seriously considering not renewing my membership

Each year you say premier members will get this and that and each year i feel like i've got very little extra apart from the TH key

I just can't justify the price you're asking for a years subscription, you can spin it anyway you like but the increase is unjustifiable

Same really i thought i'd Max next year

PS: i won't be holding my breathe as you're not going to change your pricing for a few moaners

Mod Kalaya, is the Dwarven Instinct Aura going to be active in the new Premier Club? I would honestly choose it over the aura being advertised. If a choice is offered it would be better than just giving us the bonus exp one. On page 2 you were looking into it, this aura will help decide if my husband and I buy the Premier club this year.

I'm not sure how the packages keep getting worse and worse each year while having less than the year before it but more expensive, and the content within the packages have lost almost all creativity and worth since the first year of this program its progressively got pretty horrid.
Why hasn't this program just followed in the 2012 package footsteps each year.

Jagex, you really need to do some research into something called The Law of Diminishing Returns. I understand that despite the dribble coming out of the mouths of government spoon fed economists about how great the major world economies are doing, the world is getting much more expensive and businesses have to raise prices, but there comes a point where people will not spend that much on entertainment. Constant TH content that is getting more and more expensive to gain ( see elder divination outfit complaints), and now this premier package with little worth while other than an aura and an extra daily TH key (NOT worth a $40 increase).

Example of one aspect of diminishing returns: Last year I spent money for 2 accounts to become gold members. It was expensive but not so much more so than a regular yearly membership, that the increase was negligible and it was worth it (kinda). This year I had intended to spend to make 3 accounts gold. Now because of the price increase, I will buy NO premier packages. So instead of only making $5 or *10 extra off me with a moderate price increase, you will lose out on all that I would have spent. And I highly doubt I am the only customer that feels this way. Will enough people buy the more expensive package to offset losses from people like me who simply do not find that increase justifiable this year? I doubt it... ergo, diminishing returns for your premier efforts. You have greatly increased the price over last year but I will bet you see less profit than last year.

Not to mention the cosmetic outfit looks bad, the pet is mediocre, and we don't even get runecoins. Maybe it isn't diminishing returns for your efforts, since it doesn't seem that much effort was put into it.
