pulli23 Posted February 6, 2009 Share Posted February 6, 2009 I don't see you, or anyone else, giving out santa hats for christmas gifts. The 'spirit' of the holiday items died way back when people started ruining friendships, hacking friends, and doing just plain dumb and cruel things for party hats. Nice try. Funny cause I did (almost) that just before the trade update (gave a few halloween masks to a few friends). First they came to fishingand I didn't speak out because I wasn't fishing Then they came to the yewsand I didn't speak out because I didn't cut yews Then they came for the oresand I didn't speak out because I didn't collect ores Then they came for meand there was no one left to speak out for me.

r4ngewarlord Posted February 6, 2009 Share Posted February 6, 2009 did you know the fat jolly santa we all know now was invented by coke, and the colours used to be blue and green but coke changed that as well.

lol000999 Posted February 6, 2009 Share Posted February 6, 2009 You can still give people things.. I fail to see the problem. It's the thought that counts not the Christmas cracker which could buy you every 99. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SomeWelshGuy Posted February 6, 2009 Share Posted February 6, 2009 You can still give people things. An amulet of glory as a small gift of someone would still mean a lot to me. And besides, the real gp value of a santa hat is 1gp, so at the time of the drop, they were worthless and just a small gift you could give to someone. Sure, the event rewards aren't tradeable now, but the same still applies, a gift doesn't have to be worth millions to be of value. Retired Tip.It Crew Mapper.

Omali Posted February 6, 2009 Share Posted February 6, 2009 did you know the fat jolly santa we all know now was invented by coke, and the colours used to be blue and green but coke changed that as well. Wrong. The modern Santa was in New York Times years before Coke used it for their advertising. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheDayRsDied Posted February 6, 2009 Share Posted February 6, 2009 I can't believe I missed this topic. Now, how am I going to approch this....... Yes, the spirit of christmas is gone, the spirit of open markets is gone, the spirit of merching is gone, and the spirit of giving is gone. You can thank the FAILED December 10th 2007 updates that FAILED to stop RWTing, FAILED to stop illegal money transfers, and FAILED to accomplish anything, other than protect uninformed players, and bolster FAILED melodramitic nerds who equate winning virtual, fictional gold in a fight to real life murder. The spirit of PKing is gone, the spirit of risk is gone, the spirit of a mulitplayer game is gone. Lots of things are gone.

I have not seen an autoer since that day, and the methods on completing a RWT have been severely reduced, making it much, much harder to RWT. The updates were a success, perhaps not in your eyes, but I can see that you played the game for the pking, and it's completely understandable why you feel the spirit of the game has gone.

That, my friend, is St. Nicholas. I get gifts from him every year on 6 December. True, it's the image of the modern-day Santa, but the name just isn't the same. And where do you see blue and green on these pictures? Off-topic: 500th post! \ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
