I get that people are upset because they see new updates and expect something given to them. Well like most games, you can't continue with certain parts unless you buy them. Sims is a good example and it is very popular still.
Also since all of this is cosmetic, and has 0% effect on how one skills, why the uproar?
If you don't like it, simply don't participate. If you dislike RWT then don't do it.
However if you are like myself and can toss five bucks here and there because 5 bucks isn't hard to get, then have fun with new play toys. It's not like Jagex is making this update and forcing anyone to do it.
Jagex is a huge business and I'm sure they aren't doing Soloman and SOF to hurt themselves. If these two things were that unpopular by the players they would remove them. If majority rules, then they stay.
Final Words Of Wisdom: If you don't like cosmetic stuff, do one of the thousands of other activities on Runescape. I don't like farming but you don't see me complaining about it all the time.
