New party hat colours

Outrageous prices and hoarding have made obtaining even a single hat an arduous task. If you are a new player dreaming of rocking a party hat on your character you are looking at a mountain to climb.
Not only that, the mountain is constanly growing. The law of supply-demand ensures that the prices are getting ever steeper.
Hats of certain colour varities are near unobtainable even for those who possess the wealth to pay for the ludicrous prices due to low availability.

Why does this matter? True, we are talking of mere cosmetic items that have no particular function within the game but rare hunting is a fun additional aspect of the game for many. It's also a good way to make some fast money.
Whenever we have rare events the server is booming. A party hat event is certain to do so as well, with casuals and players from competing servers joining in and maybe they'll stick around if they get lucky.

Why hats? While the new rare designs by Nisti have been an excellent addition alongside the traditional rares from RSC it is an obvious truth that party hats are the most coveted rare items in the game. The market prices speak for themselves.

Due to all this I suggest to introduce new colour varities of party hats.

What do you think? Is this all pointless? Should edge sitters stop hugging their pixels and get to wild? Should less rich players stop crying and work for their pixels if they want it so bad? If you agree with this suggestion, what colour should the new hats be?

Introducing more hats without addressing the root issues isn't going to do much of anything.

Admins/mods should just analyze # of hats by type that have been lost due to bannings/bank wipes and release that fixed number through an event similar to christmas 2016

Im against releasing new hats, but I think we should re introduce  the banned/lost hats. Prices are astronomical. +1

take the hats from maddogs  bank and use them to host different kind of events weekly, because we all know if you're going to unban him you will wipe the bank so lets have some events instead and hope that the server gets a bit more active by them

Naw man don't touch old hats. Make new ones whatever. Don't put more into the economy.

Phats should be rare, no matter the color. It should be the ultimate item in RSC and if you want one, you should have to earn it with hard work. If everything is easily obtainable then what's the point? So no, keep it the way it is.
