Instead of making players use existing partyhats to make a rainbow partyhat, why not give everyone one one rainbow partyhat upon completion of the event?

Question: Should we introduce the Christmas 2006 event?

yes thats a very good idea!!


Question: Would you like to be able to turn existing party hats into tradeable rainbow party hats?

turn 1 phat set into 1 untradeble rainbow phat would be better imo, also that way, current phats would gain a little bit more value, also you could give evry1 2 phat sets at the most, to give evry1 the chanse to get phat sets, but make it the last free chanse, cuz giving them each year for xmas, has absolutly no point, and takes away there special value, and look as a holiday item


Question: Should the anti-Santa visit Old School and dispense black Santa hats?

yes on halloween, to help the grim reaper,not for xmas lol, give a white santa hat instead, its much more holiday xmas like than a evil black santa hat! :)

happy xmas!

this is exacly the story behind the rainbow phat, you cut some up , and you make a phat out of all the colours, thats the story behind the phat, otherwise it has no point, lol, also it would give value to the other phats, cuz they could let you cut up 1 phat set, to make 1 untradeble rainbow phat, also they need to give evry1 2 phat sets, so that every1 has the chance to get phat, sets, making this xmas the last time jagex give them away for free, giving these phats each year makes no point.

Mod reach. So are you planning on making the players able to obtain each party hat? or are you going to be leaving it up to us to find party hats that are already in game?

Honestly I believe to actually have rares in the game is a good thing. It gives people something to work towards. Its a status symbol. Big houses and nice cars drive people to become doctors ect. Something that can only be obtained with playing the game saving money and grinding. Its different than being able to just getting a lucky drop.
this is very true, maybe give players phats this year, but giving them next year has absolutely no point.

Every since I played this game a goal of mine was to get a party hat. knowing that only a select few has them pushed me into working towards that goal. Its different than just trying to get a level. Once you get one you want to work at getting another ect. I

People become doctors to help other people, not to become billionaires.

If you want an item to show off wealth, get third age. Holiday items are cosmetic amenities, ones that anyone should have access to.

Jagex... it is about time I actually love an update. Thank you so much.. seriously... I am looking forward to broad bolts and hope they make a return. OMW to 55 slayer to use them!


Side note: rares should really be rares Jagex. im just saying... If you want rs to feel like the real deal.. make the rainbow party hat a 1 time deal. Make the black santa hat tradable, and make it a real rare item. "Who are you really? deep... deep down... far far in... Once you figure that out you will laugh your self Silly!" - Alan Watts.

a few issues or changes I would like to see is

1st: There is no point to broad arrows except using them for xp gain. I wont say remove them.. but Instead I'd say how about make the functionality to make the arrows disabled as the real only reason to use them was for the fletching xp and I highly disagree with adding such a large increase in exp as even for the main game the fletching rates of broad arrows are op.... and that's on the main game.. THE MAIN GAME!!!! and its op, so if its op on the main game its gonna be even more op on old school. Keep the arrows as a slayer point item to buy, but not as a broad arrowhead to fletch as this would destroy fletching and training and devalue it.

2ndly: The smash all hammer for the granite hammer should not be an update it should be an expensive slayer point reward..... really that will destroy the game and make it to much easier please add this to the slayer point reward system and not just as something that you get for free or it will be a pointless update that no one worked for it themselves. and by letting people buy the reward rather then just implement the update to the game it will also give people the choice to buy the ability or not, some of us want to play the game as old school as we feel and I feel you should give us that option to buy the auto granite hammer finishing kill rather then forcing the update on us.. it'd make so much more people happier and accept the update more people are also more likely to vote yes to automatic finish kill blows if you make it optional to have the ability or not.

3rdly: .......why is there an xp boost for slayer????????? you clearly said you don't want to give us that options on polls and now your giving it to us????? We don't want bonus xp from finishing slayer master tasks faster, either find a different reward to replace it or just not add any extra incentives to speed slayer, getting slayer done fast is already a incentive to ppls xp rates as it helps them get the task

A lot of good ideas for updates.

For slayer - please consider cannon free areas or worlds even.

If you go ahead with the time slayer mode idea this will be even more urgent.

I would vote yes to most of the slayer updates (would never buy the increased amount of monsters option though).

done faster

Page 2

Slayer is supposed to be a slow as hell skill with crazy rewards and to devalue it so much with xp bonuses to just get your slayer task is stupid as hell like really what the hell. You guys say you don't want to give us xp boosts and your giving it to us?? Please remove this from the poll it is not wanted. Without the bonus xp its already more rewarding and the xp rates are faster already and the more you concentrate and dedicate yourself to get the task done because then you can begin your new task faster. We don't want xp hand outs please do not implement this.
