I would like to see a Black Party Hat!

As for the current colors, I do not think any new ones should enter the game.

Unfortunately, I do not think this will ever happen.

I'm kind of on the fence about this. On one hand, I've always seen phats and rares as some sort of mystical items which I will never acquire but gives me a reason to keep building a cash stack. Heck, I've never even seen a disc of returning and I've been playing since 2003! I'm not sure how I would feel if this 'holy grail' view was to be taken away after so many years. I also don't, and never will support Treasure Hunter in any way.

As for the reason why I partially support: to me this situation resembles the one in 2001 when rune 2h were monopolised by few individuals that had 99 smithing. I wasn't around back then but I heard they were sold for upwards of 1 million gp! Fortunately, these insane prices dropped by the time I started playing - thanks to more people achieving 99 smithing. However, the difference between rune 2h and phats/rares is that latter are discontinued items, meaning that monopoly is effectively immortal and cannot be disrupted by any means until the end of Runescape. The only way I see to correct this is what should've been done since 2003 when bunny ears came out: make all rares untradable . I believe that should've been the original purpose of phats and santa hats - to show that you were around back then. Sadly, due to this game of monopoly (which probably also led to rise of RWT and botting/alts) it's now impossible to tell if the person wearing phat is it's original owner.

So although I agree that it would be healthy and overdue for Runescape to collapse the discontinued rares market (like a tooth that's become more and more rotten over time), I don't support the use of TH to do it.

You've earned my support.

Consequences might be that alot of people will quit.
But that amount of people are pointless in this game anyway, all they care about is riches.
Jagex admitted they never should've released tradeble rares. They didn't see it coming they will become the most expensive item in game. They can still fix that, but at a cost. But more players will enjoy the game too i think.
I own a santa hat currently, I say they should also re-release santa hats. It's a price i'm willing to pay.

again: SUPPORT.

Runescape is always being updated so there's always something to check out.

Because of the regular updates, and tender loving maintenance of the game, there's always something interesting to check out. So there's also hope because the regular updates is a reflection that they really do care about the game's balance.

And there's also numerous reasonable reasons to support Partyhats on Treasure Hunter as we might more or less agree, maybe, and discussed previously.

Many thanks for supporting or commenting on this topic! :D

You have to be literally enemy of the game to support this idea, negative.
Thanks for bumping the thread, but your contribution to the discussion is literally melodramatic.

If you're reluctant to support Partyhats on Treasure Hunter you're welcome to explain your position, but conjuring a fictitious enemy just because of a different point of view is readily dismissed with a wave of my magic wand.

Just because of a different point of view doesn't make anyone enemies, the fact that we all share in the enjoyment of this game is proof that we are more likely to be friends. If there is a minor disagreement then certainly we can agree to disagree.

Because you'll see that supporting Partyhats on Treasure is the right thing to do because it will help Jagex strengthen their funding to hire more people who will maintain and create more awesome updates for everyone, including you to enjoy! :D

So, this thread is about helping you, and everyone too!

Let's all come together to support Jagex!

Let's help them keep Runescape up and running for all time!

Let's help them by supporting the development of Partyhats on Treasure Hunter because it's the right thing to do !!! :D

Support Partyhats on Treasure Hunter it's the right thing to do!!! :D

I was unlucky when it came to party hats i joined the game in January a month later after the phat came out ,so missed out on them.they was selling for to high a price to get my hands on one.and at that time money was hard to earn in the game for a low level.i was chasing a never ending story.
to be honest all they are is a fashion statement they serve no purpose .only to show off and brag who has the most money in game .
bots effected the market and it was just crazy.
then jadgex took away any future ideas on items that could make money.all holiday items became none trade-able.
until now with holiday tokens .these might rise in price over time as rarity takes form.
I would not like to see phats come back even though i don't own one .
instead i would like to see items come to the game that are on a similar principle.
with the item coming out that year and that year only.
giving other players a chance to earn cash in the future.
i play for fun not to get rich but if i make a little along the way so be it.
the only way i would back phats coming back is if they where of a different colour to the high priced ones .then it should not impact the cost of the other phats that are out.
