Nah you cant forget about what happened after the poll just because it "passed".

What happens after is just as important as the poll itself.

I mean, its the whole reason we're even having this discussion ;)
actually no, the poll itself gave real time results for the question the poll asked. The aftermath you keep crying on about is actually far less important. Like I said, their losing vote lost, if Jagex stopped every update just because some people wouldn't like it themselves, then this game would never change.

Screw the backlash.
The only reason we are having this discussion is because, for some reason, you assholes put way too much personal value on something that doesn't even affect you.
You are unchanged in every possible way whether they came back or not, but your values that you placed on these items are forcing anybody who has ever wanted to have their own fun the cold shoulder, just so you can brag about yourselves.

The only reason this is an argument is because you don't think giving people a choice to work for something they want is fair.


Keep denying it, you know I'm right.

Original message details are unavailable.
The only solution i can think of that satisfies and caters the most to both sides is to: release similar but distinctive clones of the original holiday item. We could have a new easter ring/santa outfit for example wif updated graphics or new colours. This solves the conflict for the most part and wouldn't even be an issue or discussion had Jagex not stopped giving a fuck about making decent holiday events and rewards.

Edit: They could also introduce new different yet festive holiday rewards - i.e I'd rather have a glowing Halloween candy basket where you can throw candy at others, than some bs lore kharidian cat pet that nobody cares about.

I have the answer to solve all the issues here , make the holiday events like old school RuneScape where once u finsh the holiday events you get all the previous years items then everyone is happy. To keep balance to the economy youvwould only get the untradeable ones since they have no value. As the poll showed the community is tired of them being discountinued and doesnt want them that way a recent poll in osrs about introducing discounted items failed cause the community wants someway to be able to get these items again in both rs3 and osrs and any poll asking to rerealease holiday items in this game always passes so their is a high demand for these what was supposed to be fun items

Untradeable discontinued items have historical value, as they prove that the owner of the item played around X period of time and completed the respective event from which the item was earned. If you don't personally care about this value, that's fine, not everyone cares about the gp value of items either, but there are those who do care about both of those values (one or the other, or both). > )

This is false, because technically the untradeable discontinued item poll passed, like I explained on a previous post in this thread (QFC: 309-310-198-66015241-220-343479903). And the tradeable discontinued item poll was very close (less than 1% away with 75% threshold required to pass), so with another look taken to it, that poll could pass just as well.

The point is 75% is a safe % to let polls pass.
outside game world (real life :P ) you need this % to let things pass.
If it drops below that % you could take it to court and yes how stupid it sounds they will win.
Its a weird but yeah those things are always weird.

It's hard to understand why you do not understand that any player can still show that they played during x period of time and that they completed the original event even after people are able to buy cosmetic override versions from Solomon's. OVERRIDES are easily recognizably different than actual items.

What part of that do you not understand?

no blackwing your wrong thats what the vet capes are for ,the holiday items themselves have no real value as they are untradeable ,buying the override and wearing the one from the event is the same item in the end so it doesnt matter
