Bromato, let me ask you these questions here.

Have you ever lost a fight in the wild vs someone that was wielding a katana?
Have you ever been ks'd by someone using a blood pouncer @ a godwars boss? (that was due to people using the bloodpoucner) Because i can assure you my steel titan wrecks any blood pouncer or w/e there is.

Now, to move onto the looks part.

Benefit in game? It does not provide a stats benefit in game, at all. It does not benefit skilling, at all. For you to complain about this, is like complaining about people paying for membership. And i am willing to hear your argument on how MEMBERSHIP and SGS purchases (cosmetic wise) are any different.

For getting member
-whole new armour sets, that give you stat benefits, and cosmetic benefits.
-new areas of the map

For SGS purchases
-You gain cosmetic overrides, or cosmetic purchases. These provide no stat benefits

So, please counter this arguement with factual proof. And btw, i have to ask you, what detail do u play the game on (fixed sreen, low detail, HD full screen, what)
Cuz, these "SGS" purchases are the reason your game is in HD, the reason your game is still alive, the reason there are 2 new skills, the reason you have new quests all the time, the reason the map is expanding, the reason there is new bosses, the reason your able to post on this forum and complain about the game your playing right now.

@player 43087: Just because something doesn't give you an advantage in PvP doesn't mean that it isn't giving you an advantage. It's almost as if you didn't even read the thread because your questions are answered in the first page.

@xDescentx: If I got over it, then who would be left to raise any objections?

As long as it is cosmetic, it gives no advantage, and that it doesn't interfere with gameplay; I'll accept it with open arms.

As for pets (scavenge, bank, etc.), and Squeal of Fortune... this poses a problem in my opinion.

Having to Buy Bank space is not a problem as well. No big advantage in terms of money and gameplay. But it helps a lot for "quest-mongers" since it keeps the bank space more open for quest items.

To point out, the more that just "you", "Demand" the less likely that anything will go as you wish. You don't have the power, the community does, you must work together. For things which is now becoming more like a Rant, you'll get a ... Hell no... and most likely placed into the Rant section of the forum. Which is how this thing is tipping over, unless you change your edit and remove your "Demand" and CAPS. Reasoning is more likely to be listen and can end up into a vote.

i quit rs since the store came out and today curiosity stroke me to see how rs was doing 1st thing I see.. buy-able bank space, a pet, and armor from Solomon...

LAME, if i were playing rs i would have been so frustrated to see those..
so long RS maybe one day we'll meet again.. but for now im giving my membership * to World of warcraft they have a much better system

such a shame was 1k exp of getting 90+ in all skill (Thief) but that's just an example of how much i hate this whole Solomon BS

King regards!

Edit: Don't even get me started on the dam wheel..

@Nova Thunder: Cosmetic items to provide an advantage, a cosmetic advantage. If cosmetics did not matter then Jagex would not be selling cosmetics and they never bother making graphical updates.

Also, this Rant is aimed towards this forum, therefore I posted it on this forum, if you want to see a real Rant, see 285-286-284-64228234


@player 43087: Firstly, almost all of your questions were answered by the first page, so I was assuming that you hadn't read the thread.

Secondly, let me quote myself from the first page:
>"the awesome thing about membership is that its benefits cannot affect the F2P environment"

and a second argument that I did not include in the OP would be that the game is advertised as a P2P game, and no other successful monthly pay to play game has microtransactions alongside the monthly fee. The only games that can sensibly implement microtransactions are free-to-play games because they have no other way of making money; it's as if Jagex started showing ads to its members.

Also, membership does not violate the RWT rule that was put into place and it is in line with Jagex's philosophy.

In addition, this game isn't in HD because of SGS purchases. I was around when RS HD, all the new skills, and a ton of new quests were created, and I'm fairly certain that the General Store did not exist back then.

1) it's not rwt if you already pay them for your membo. So stop complaining.

2) this all helps to pay for better graphics and stuff on rs if you didn't read the homepage. it's not all free ya know.

3)HOW LONG DO YA THINK IT TAKES TO MAKE THESE AMAZING GRAPHICS?!! seriously, go back around 10 years ago and start playing and you'll see turd.

if you don't like it, don't get it. Not a supporter, tisk tisk.

Bye! - Riana.[:
