As a player of this game, for over a decade, I must say, this is truly unfair towards the players of OSRS. Rares are needed, in almost any game, in order to make the economy more interesting, and give people something to strive for, once they've maxed everything out, and have gold to spend. Also, why is Jagex still calling them "rares", They aren't rares, if they are going to continue to be released every year.

At the end of the day, we were the people that helped to bring these servers back online, and we should be the ones to collect these items, and make them rare, once again, by only giving them out once.

I fail to see the logic here, it just seems like another way to make this game less significant than rs3. They could easily just release these items once, during each holiday, and then stop. Every single player in the game would have these items, and they would start to become rare over time.

Either way, it's not about making money with rares, it's about striving for items that you can't obtain, unless you play the game. There should really be a vote on whether they should only be released once, or not.

This has got the be the dumbest thing I've ever heard. Why on earth will you keep dropping them every year? The point of these items were that they were rare and you could use them in place of large amounts of cash. If you keep re-dropping them, there's literally no point to them.

I *highly* suggest you re-think this decision before you lose even more players.

Biggest mistake if they drop them every year, because people will able to achieve the best items ( like bandos armadyl 3rd age) maybe in just one year or even less? So the game will get bored in a while. Jagex should listen to their players, they made many mistakes in the past. Why are they still doing the same wrong things? I think they like to lose players.........

I'm sorry but re-dropping them every year, with their corresponding holiday, is just plain stupid.

Yes the game is meant to be fun and relaxing - but why make it so that NO ITEM is ever seen as an investment/gamble?

NO Discontinued items? No true rares?

Mod Mat K messed this one up BIG-TIME.
