On the same post Riot announced that they were reopening the Limited Edition Vault, they said that the people who originally had the skins would get

-A full RP refund on whatever limited edition skins they had

-A cool little design on the skins in the loading screen to show that they originally had it

-A special summoner icon

and I think that's fair compensation to them, and from what I've seen, they do too. As the people who came to the game late and didn't have a chance to get said skins (me :3), well, all I can say is I feel sorry for wallets everywhere ;_;
