Blackwing i was talking more about Turksta saying he didnt want the word "copy" cause
he did not want a cheap knock off.

My comment was meaning if its a cheap knock off then he is saying untradeables do have
value so therefore if that is true then the untradeables need to not be rereleased just
like Party hats and others are not rereleased.

Yea, I just think "cheap" can only apply to a value like the gp value, because it's an integer value where you can compare between cheap and expensive, whereas historical value is more of a string value, where there are different values that can't be compared like that, and a null value of course.

(That was way too complicated but whatever.)

the whole point of this thread is there was a poll to re-realse the orignal items in soloms for loyalty points and it passed and there is no status on when this update is to release. i am alwqays willing to share my untradeables , since people have put so much unnecesarry value on the untradeables holiday items i guess its time to make em tradeable., there problem solved then the minorty can keep their items

If you were content with that... would you be, though?

This. Since some people place such values on these items then its time these things become tradeables.

"The holiday loyalty poll is 4 years old and doesn't meet the 75% threshold to ensure true majority. That said though, it still wouldn't matter even if the majority wanted a rerelease like that; it's not good for the game's long term health."

I think if the same poll was made again today, then there would be over 75% as there are a lot more newer players and less veterans now. And the good of the game's long term health isn't gonna be ruined by releasing useless untradeable cosmetics, but by releasing OP MTX promos and little to no game updates that are full of bugs. Either way, i'm against the original idea of the poll as i've said earlier i do not want cheap knock offs. I do not want the very exact same item design with a difference colour just to differentiate originals from not


"But the holiday items just say .. "i was there and I did this"

And they still can say that.


"Sorta like having legends cape..... you did the quest so you have the item."

The difference is the legends cape ca be obtained at any time. These cannot


I dont want the items in Solomons.. at all..."

for once we can agree

@Pikachu, I support you, but I'm against making them tradable to share. That can simply be a get rich quick scheme for a lot of people who got them already, once the majority get collected by merchant hoarders.

I support rerelease by replay of the events, I did what you did, so regardless of what time I did it, I did the task you did for the reward you earned and have in your possession. Like working for the Legend's Cape.

If this replay of events portal happens to include new items and events as well, doesn't that mean your kind get rewarded for participating as well? You can't say it isn't doing anything for you then.

Health of the game would probably be minimally, but positively affected. On one hand you have tens of thousands of people getting items they've wanted for years and decades for. And even the ability to replay the events at leisure. Just a positive nostalgia effect long term. While no player is personally affected negatively by the update at all.

As for the events themselves, yes there's a lesser feeling of urgency to do it the moment it comes out. So what? The release date is still going to have the most people, just like GameStop gets whenever a new CoD gets released. And they have preorder and online marketplace stores with that.

You can still get that New feeling you crave, just don't stop doing them on release if you can help it.. Be more relaxed and less uptight. Help the new players do that event you loved! Maybe I will too! :O

I also support by Solomon's because of the same reason, only this one is profit to Jagex because it promotes membership loyalty points, and this way we still have at least a chance to one day get them if we saved points and work hard for membership.

Either way is fine by me. It'd be more fun for the players to replay old events, but it'd be better money and less work to do Solomon's.
Your opinions here can affect us all. Please post for the better
