Should there be a Guaranteed poll for the Christmas Event?

Featured Replies

NO! I want an suprise this time.... I miss the older holiday events.. Since october 2006 every holiday update have been bad.

 

 

 

Would like an fun big event with lots of rewards like the holiday 2005 one.

No. If Jagex lists something childish on the poll then you can be guaranteed that one will receive the most votes.

If there would be a broomstick, some people would still say they wanted the hood and it's all f2p fault that they didn't get it. <.<

There should be no christmas event.

 

 

 

The aftermath of this holiday event is disgusting and the behaviour of many players is disgusting.

I like surprises. <3:

It really is pathetic how much fuss this GC poll has caused. -.-

 

I can't even remember which i voted for and i'm sure this goes for many, many people who voted.

 

The hood doesnt give any bonuses and is purely for looks in respect to Halloween, so who cares if what you voted for wasnt the one that won the poll. It does not affect gameplay in the slightest and i bet in a months time there will be hardly anyone wearing the hoods anyway.

 

I used to love the holiday events but this time it has gone to far with the flaming and moaning from the immature players who didnt get what they wanted.

 

I hope Jagex don't do another GC poll for Christmas.

P2P offers more and better ways of making money than f2p. That's one of the cons you just have to play with if you don't feel like having 1 bigmac meal less per month.

Last time people were given the choice of a new holiday event item they voted for a.... wait for it.... a HOOD!

 

 

 

Geez, hopefully a lesson learned by Jagex, but not likely. Regardless of what's said here... they'll create another guaranteed content poll for the Xmas event.

Remember, Jagex using logic is like barney shooting the entire cast of Barney with an Ak47. We all want it to happen. It just never will.

No witty signatures for me :(

No.

 

Firstly because Jagex already had an event limited by time when they made a garanteed poll for the halloween one, and the christmas's one is already too close for that.

 

Secondly, I think they should completely surprise us and be original.

I have always liked surprises, but there is no harm in getting what you asked for. I say whatever. Either way works well for me.

halloween vote was f2p :roll: they all wanted a hood because they didnt have an ahrims hood.

 

 

 

if there was a christmas vote its a 100% going to be a f2p vote again too, and if theres an item that is similar to members that NO members want, all the f2p garbage will want it and vote for it making christmas ruined.

you already did it with halloween, name me a p2p that thinks the hood is original and new.

 

its not your fault you are underage and poor garbage that cant pay $5 lol.

 

 

 

you would probably vote on a red and white version of a whip for a christmas vote that no p2p person would care about and all the f2p garbage clap and applaud jagex even though they dont support the game and most of them break rules.

So this item ruined your halloween ?

 

Say that out loud to someone who doesn't know this game and see how pathetic it makes you look.

 

 

 

I have no comment on the rest of what you wrote, cuz its utter bulldung pulled out of whatever mongoloid brain you borrowed.

None of it was true, it was his opinon, and you share it. Does that mean it's fact? No.

 

 

 

Do most f2p'ers break the rules? Where's your evidence? I can say honestly that most f2p'ers DON'T break the rules.

 

 

 

F2P is not you scapegoat when you get something you don't want. Get over it, and if you want everything you want, good luck in life, you have a tough road ahead of you.

 

 

 

Being F2P does not make you dirt and trash, being f2p does not make you a punching bag that every spoiled member can blame their lives on. It's just like saying, "Being a member automatically makes you a no-life nerd who pays money to plan a worthless online game that won't help your future at all".

 

 

 

I am sure Jagex IS considering removing holiday events due to all the trouble it causes. I don't think there should be guarenteed polls for holiday events. Remember THEY'RE NOT EVEN SUPPOSED TO BE THERE! It's out of Jagex's kindness that they add them, wheater you think it's a total waste of time, or worship them like gods, you should live with what you get. Member or free-player. Learn some thankfullness.

 

 

 

I wanted the broomstick too. And I didn't get it. So am I out there ranting about the "worthless non-members" who ruin my life? No, I make the best of the situation. Find a way to like it, or forget about it.

all of your theories would be correct, however nothing i have said was wrong, none of you probably break rules but guess what dood!

 

autoers are f2p arnt they? how many of them are banned?

 

if they had to pay $5 to register then wouldnt jagex be happy to ban autoers?

 

 

 

and lol at talking about my real life, for all you know i could be the son of bill gates, theres so many varieties to prove how stupid you are.

 

 

 

also i voted for the broomstick and im sure every member did too simply because it was unique to EVERYONE, guess what the description said?

 

 

 

you can ride around on the broomstick so it actually was a thousand times different, buy an ahrims hood and tell me which looks better, simply because it was a f2p vote and f2p garbage voted for it lol.

 

 

 

i never complained either, i knew that f2p being allowed to vote that a thousand of those cretins can go on alt accounts and vote for a hood that they wouldnt be playing long enough to even wear it anyway simply because f2p is garbage. :thumbsup:

Assuming that is directed at the line about getting everything you want, not everything has a dollar value. You can be the richest person alive and not get everything you want.

I have a feeling that not every member voted for the broom. Some might even have voted for the hood. Unless you have evidence, you shouldn't say it.

If F2P is garbage, then would that not mean P2P is garbage also? F2P is a scaled down version of P2P, after all.

First, good idea about the hide thing.

 

 

 

Your the son of Bill Gates! So what? That means you get whatever you want? Do you want your milk 100ML or 100.1 ML full? You want it on the right or left of your dish? It was a comparison, not a fact. I was not saying you are a no-life nerd, I was saying that infering that all f2p is scum is like saying that to p2p'ers.

 

 

 

It looks like your infering ALL f2p are autoers and scum. WRONG! I'm sure Jagex would be pained to ban macros if they pay $5. Why? Since the next month they pay another $5, and Jagex gets more money.

 

 

 

For goodness sake, I did vote for the broomstick, a lot of f2p'ers voted for the broomstick, why do you keep insisting that all of us did? I KNOW that the hood isn't as good as the broomstick. BUT, how do you know that every single f2p voted, hood? And every p2p'er voted, broomstick? Has the son of Bill Gates learned how to hack computers? Gee, teach us.

 

 

 

And, fyi, you must play 12 hours to vote. That's 12 hours AFTER THE UPDATE FOR F2P POLLS. All before played time DOES NOT COUNT. Who is going to waste all that time just for a few votes? I wouldn't, maybe the son of Bill Gates would? And think a little harder, if it was that easy, why would members not making multiple f2p acounts and vote broomstick. If we can do it, that means you can too.

 

 

 

No one is garbage because they don't pay $5 a month. If you really consider f2p to be all trash and garbage, spend a little time there. You'll find that not all f2p'ers are what you seem. Yes, many are autoers and rule breakers, but the majority aren't. Why would any one prefer a hood over a broomstick? Apparently, some people do, and they have a reason why. Is it because they like a hood more than a broomstick? Very unlikely, as any half-wit can tell that a flying broom is better than a hood. Why did people choose it? Well young Bill Gates, lets take a look at the poll.

 

 

 

"A Broom that CAN SWEEP OR be hovered on"

 

 

 

Obviously, some people thought that you might not be able to hover on the broom, and just sweep. If you just got a broom that could sweep when you operate it, would you like it or the hood? Plus, you can make outfit matches with the hood, but not with a broom.

 

 

 

Does that mean f2p messes up all of your votes? Let's see:

 

 

 

The Achievement Diary GP (Members Only)-124792 Votes

 

Halloween Poll (Members and Free-Players)-265177 Votes

 

 

 

Now then, that means half the people were f2p. The options were:

 

Hood, Broom, Brooch, Imp costume, Dummy. Do you think any members would vote for a costume or a dummy they would never use? No, most probably voted for the other 3. So that means the imp and dummys were mostly f2p. After all, if Bill Gates Jr. is correct, and f2p only votes for "cool" things they don't have. And members vote for the truely good things, then wouldn't that mean f2p votes were spread out over the hood, dummy, and costume?
