Yeah - no! They can pretty much do anything they want as long as they dont commit fraud while doing it, and it doesnt upset any shareholders in any way. Even then, there are loopholes and work arounds.

If you advertize something you are obligated to produce it for the timeframe or event stipulated unless there are limitiations like, "While Supplies Last", or something prevented the event from taking place due to unforeseen and unavoidable circumstances.

In business markets must expand, so they can expand it however they see fit, unless they dont see fit. Ball is in Jagex's court.

I am not an attorney and I do not think you are either, but I will disagree with you. I have worked for an attorney, studied law at my University, was in pre-law society, etc. I would defer this to business attorneys that specialize in advertising laws, but if they advertise something as "exclusive" to a particular event in order to entice people to pay for the chance to get the item from that event and then release it in any other form, in my book that is fraud.

Either way, the FTC would decide, not you or me. They already tread on thin ice with these types of promotions so it would not be wise to false advertise. Jagex may, or may not, have practiced such business practices in the past that you seem to imply is okay, but being a publicly traded company they fall under more scrutiny. Either way, it would be unethical to advertise it as exclusive to the event, which they absolutely did, then release it in any other manner. If they had simply place the item in the event and advertised it as being in the event then I would agree they could release it in any manner they choose, but that is not what occurred. They went out of their way to promote the item as specific to only being available in Presents of the Sledge.

So the bottom line is, you will not likely see it again until next Christmas at the earliest and you may never see it again.

I rest my case.

What you said was wrong, which is why you came back all "haha! Let me retract that!"

You see! I dont have to write a novel to rebut everything you just now said. And to think there are so many more productive ways you could have spent your time.

Btw, there are numerous examples of attorneys that pass the Bar and still cant litigate their way out of a paper bag. Here's hopeing your future is brighter than theirs.

Thank you and have a nice day! :)

More productive way to spend my time? Having a real life debate about US law is much more productive than playing Runescape. Are you trying to troll me? More productive ways to spend my time? LoL man you are trolling me. I cannot take you seriously.

I did not go to law school, nor am I an attorney obviously. I studied law in undergraduate and worked for an attorney as a legal assistant and I'm not an expert on legal matters. I retracted my guarantee because I cannot literally guarantee anything that I am not in control of. I didn't mean it literally. It was a figure of speech and I felt I should clarify that.

Companies do stupid stuff so I cannot rule anything out. What I am saying is that it would be highly unwise to release the Aurora dye after stating in writing that it was exclusive to that event.

You are welcome to have your own opinion but I feel very confident in my opinion.

i think it would be cool to actually rework what dyes come from what tiers.

easy clues = no dyes

medium clues = barrows dyes

hard clues = barrows, shadow, aurora dyes

elite clues = shadow, aurora, ice dyes

master clues = aurora, ice, blood, and third age dyes


this would give incentive to do different tiers and also make it so you wont see low tier dyes in elites and masters. pssst....we know who you are. Hail Sithis!

Or as an alternative, fully complete any yak tracks (past ones count and you don't need premier track) or buy any aurora cosmetics for yak coins

After all, there was a wintertumber aurora yak track which fits the theme of aurora dyes

I am not understanding the confusion here. The Aurora Dye will not be in treasure trail. This is Jagex' own words:

Rewards

Play Presents from the Sledge for new rewards exclusive to this event!

Aurora Dye
'Naughty' title
'Nice' title
'Aurora' title

Note - please understand what "exclusive" means.
