I can only see one logical solution. Give me the skeleton set right now. Give everyone a full set of rares, but ONLY after this free trial expires.

Make us pay for an extension of the service first. To me this is win/win.

Of course, the tradeable rares would need to be a limited time offer. A certain set amount would be put into the game, and the value would obviously rise and fall depending on the number of new users who sign up.....assuming there are any!

I like the idea of introducing rares into clue scrolls/monster drops.. BUT

It would devalue current clue rewards because of more people doing them and like someone said earlier, people would just camp the crap out of them, which isn't terrible but it could mean them being more packed, but just have to wait and see.

If your going to introduce rares make them untradeable and only give old/veteran runescape players. Or give everyone one and let the prices balance it self. Although getting them the same way we previously gotten them is a good option too.

Yes bring back everything in its original state and drop them during holiday events. This is the only way to emulate the "past" history of Runescape.

Prices will slowly increase and will follow the current state of the economy which is still very young. They won't skyrocket to 100M the first week!

For the second poll what will happen if multiple options receive over 75% of the vote, will they all be implemented or will it just go to the one with the highest vote? Personally I would like to see 2, 3 and 8 so that everyone has a fair chance at getting them, but if in the end we can only see one then I'd vote differently.

Or what if none of the options reach 75% in the second poll after the first poll was successful?
