~I think that you guys at Jagex HQ should consider adding trinkets as a new equipment slot.
Okay, so lately Old school seems to be struggling on the different uses for old items. For instance a lot of in game items seem useless to most players, but they just don't give a clear (or good enough) reason to use. Lets use the holy wrench for example, and item that gives players a decent prayer bonus (which is clear) but a lot of members do not realize that it also gives you a couple of extra prayer points when you drink a does of a prayer potion. this could be beneficial while doing something like low level barrows or NMZ. But instead of using it, players will bring an extra prayer potion instead, even though with the wrench you can get more player points ("
with level 50 prayer, having a full inventory of prayer potions (4) will restore 2,128 prayer points (4 * 19 = 76, 76 * 28 = 2,128), while having 27 prayer potions (4) and a holy wrench will restore 2,160 prayer points (4 * 20 = 80, 80 * 27 = 2,160), or 32 more prayer points.

Now with a trinket slot instead of it taking inventory space, players can gain a small benefit, without sacrificing precious inventory space. This can not in include old items in that game that used to make no logical sense to bring, as well as new content and play styles for players to enjoy.
And with adding items like these into the game, your able to make new drops on old bosses (similar to the pet's update) as well as a new ways to stimulate the in game economy. This would also allow bosses in the future to look more appealing to kill due to the more items on the drop table.
