One thing that people are missing is Poll 2's questions depends on how we answer the first 2. poll 2 has all possible answers and it depends on how question 2 of poll one goes

ATTENTION ALL OLDSCHOOL PLAYERS PLEASE READ AND GIVE ME FEED BACK

They should definitely make rares come from clue scrolls otherwise it wouldn't be a fair distribution to the players of RuneScape; On top of that rares would be horded causing a bias economy flux due certain parties hording sed rares. Everyone should have a fair chance at getting their hands on some rares. This being said, new treasure trails,
specific
to OldSchool RuneScape, should be come up with for these Tier rewards. Maybe a quests for some of the untradeable rares.
Give
the
Bunny ears
and
Easter ring
to those who finished the Easter event. Come on wow us with some cool stuff. Don't just drop it in game without putting thought behind it. I've seen this game come up from it's beginnings and form into Eoc. Can not say I was pleased with EOC I am happy to see Oldschool come back let's do it right this time. :)

Too many people are making selfish suggestions. Clues scrolls, high level monster drops and such only cater to high levels. That's a huge problem because that would just result in them being horded. The way they're distributed needs to be fair to EVERYBODY, unlike the "EOC" updates that are only for high levels.

The point of 07 should have been to give everyone a fair shake and fresh start. Only giving high levels trade-able rares would mess up the economy more than cash transferring between game versions already has. Unless, of course, they're not trade-able, which judging by the poll wont happen.


The only fair way to do it would be how it was done originally. Events that everybody could do, or them being randomly dispersed in cities during holidays. That or just giving one to everyone..

After seeing the possibility of rares returning i got really excited, ever since i started this game rares have been very fascinating to me due to there exclusiveness and history. something unintended becoming such an important part of the game is what kept me playing for so long. so after thinking about this for a few days and how it could be fairly put back into the game i came to the conclusion that obtaining them needs to be equally fair for EVERYONE to get. no monster drops, or other requirements, because nobody should be restricted to only being able to purchase them, thats not how they are supposed to be. there needs to be a way to bring them back and make it completely random so that we dont get people complaining about getting scammed from not getting there share from the drop or some other problem. the last thing i want to see is every other person wearing a rare because to many were put back into the game

i dont think we need everyone to have them because that will take away from what makes them special. there needs to be a strict limit that reflects the amounts that were in the game, compared to have many less people are playing now, such as a lot of santa hats, easters, moderate h ween masks, and very few blue phats and so on in the correct order. so sort of random event ( possibly a random event with in a random event) to prevent bots from getting lucky as well as keep real players eyes open when interacting with a random event. something along the lines of completely random is the point im getting at, as well as extremely rare based on what item it is.
