Please re-poll to make rares discontinued -

As an ironman, it's been a year? now and we've all had the chance to get the rares and the game has been here for going on 3 years, giving others enough time to get the rares themselves for free.

The poll to make them discontinued was quite some time ago now also and I believe it's time for there to be some discontinued valuable items in this game, like it was before. It gives newer players as well as current players who didn't receive them the motivation to save up and buy one like many of us did in the game before. (It made me save up from 2005 to buy one)

Also, you guys could word the question like you did for the corp question in the latest poll ;) (Should the holiday items remain continued in game?) - The amount of people who voted no to that corp question believing it would be to not implement it.. Was bad wording and needed 75% to KEEP it in-game, where it should be 75% to remove it.

Anyways, I think the rares should be discontinued now :) Maybe i'll start wearing them in 2/3 years time then, when they mean something!

I do agree, as previously mentioned "rares" should be discontinued. They are intended to be fun items, to move up spirits of younger players i'm assuming. Over time they have done this and more! Back when they were discontinued people collected them for the money and spirit of the game. They had worth and people loved seeing them. Now people regard them as junk items and it has taken away from them. It would be nice to see a repoll if people would be interested in removing the current ones for a batch of discontinued rares.

Also look forward to possibly running some community Halloween events this month.

Looking forward to the event Jagex, can't wait to be spooked :o . I would like it more if you didn't poll every single little thing though, I'm getting tired of seeing you guys having to poll like about everything lol... But I guess that's how the game stays balanced, right :p

Looks good, will be voting no on the pet.

Wish there was a recoloured halloween mask too, maybe a white one or something. But that's ok since it seems liket he rewards are decent without it.

Classic 1 said :
we had about enough " rares" , people had the chance to get phats and hween masks for a couple years now, and they are virtually everywhere on all accounts.

Its time to make them disc and let em gain some value for the future.

also i recommend a repoll on the rare poll 2, 68% voted to bring back rares discontinued,
If the vote would be taken today, it would be 80% easy.


No, thanks. Holiday items such as partyhats should *never* be valuable. If anything, they're too expensive as it is.

If you really want to spend a lot of money on a rare item, buy third-age armor. Some of the items are rarer than partyhats are in RS3.
