I happened to think that the idea about jack frost covering rs with ice is a weird idea for a rs Christmas event. I really want the event to be about the wise old man being santa claus. lol

Excuse me but, how stupid are people >:[!?

 

Look fat and lazy with a white beard or have a pet reindeer, COME ON GIVE US F2PS A PET >_

 

This makes me rage.

Ya, a santa suit is just ... horrible..

Santa Suit? Do people think before they vote? At least their getting the emote right.

 

 

 

Aside from those two, why jack frost? The monkey one would be awesome. \'

I'd love a pet reindeer, but I kind of liked the idea of an 'opening present' emote. I'd love to unwrap a box, and have my face literally light up as glittering tinsel and baubles burst out, float and disappear.

i guess im the only one calling the other side idiots for wanting a stupid reindeer and a useless snow melt emote?

 

 

 

the pet will OBVIOUSLY be members only just like the christmas tree that was for membersonly that you could put in your house when the reindeerhat came out.

 

 

 

santa suit is overdue and [garden tool] [garden tool] [garden tool] would be the greatest emote ever made.

Everyone vote for Reindeer! I suggested it! Pet for F2P(They would have said if it would be since F2P can vote in it) Good to see its at least a close second, but come on!

Thanks to Killerwat for the sig!

DUDE! SANTA SUIT OVER ICE SWORD?

 

 

 

.....

 

 

 

:wall:

Pets are a members thing. There's no point. I am 95% sure that if it was pet Reindeer, they would be members only. And Santa Suit > Zammy Robes for a Santa costume.

Icicle Sword :cry: I really want that. A santa suit? Are people idiots? -.-

Thanks to all those who have messaged me concerning a revamp of my Range-Slayer guide. Because of you all I will start rewriting it asap.[/color]

Icicle Sword :cry: I really want that. A santa suit? Are people idiots? -.-

 

 

 

Exactly how I feel. :cry:

269 QP | All Stats 60+ (except Summoning) | Barrows Drops: 8 | Dragon Drops: 1

I feel the same, except the icicle sword will probably have 0 stats, and the santa suit will make you look fat.

 

 

 

PET REINDEER

People have been asking for a Santa suit ever since the Santa hat was dropped. Its time is well due.

I personally wanted the boots that looked like presents... but apparently not many other ppl do. :(

yet the Zamorak Robes do the job decently well. It's not needed, there's something that will probably look exactly like them already in the game. There is nothing like an Icicle Sword in the game.

I don't understand why people voted for a quest as holiday event, that's just boring. A team-event would have been a lot more fun. Pet reindeer or icicle sword is nice, all emotes are nice except hohoho and opening a present, that's just plain.

2480+ total

Oh yay, another event with dodgy rewards that get worn for a week and then banished to diango/your toy box forever.

Hail to The Great Big Penguin in the sky. And Guthix, of course.

icycle sword or candy cane cane would look great :) not some stupid suit >.>

I want a pet reindeer if its f2p... if not then the ice sword. They should specify if the reindeer would be p2p only or not.

The finishing results will most likely be what they are now. They really shouldn't tell us the current statistics until the poll's over really, these things should have at least some suprise.

 

 

 

I'm glad the emote I picked is in the lead, although I wouldn't mind the Ice Sword. Even if what I had in mind for it would probably be the exact opposite of what Jagex are thinking. A suit to wear in RS would be nice though. Hopefully they'll bring Tuxedos for our top hats soon too :D

I feel a member/ftp different event would be better.

 

 

 

Just hop servers to get the ftp reward.

 

Ah the joy's of membership benefits that Jagex so kindly remind us of.

 

 

 

Seriously, I want that pet. ;)

I have no intrest in helping "keyers" farm xp.

+1 omg that would rock :)

 

 

 

Also wanted to have a giant turkey attacking runescape :)

 

 

 

And of course the turning in ice emote :P
