@Galahad: Honestly, I've seen your posts on the topic, and I'm honestly getting tired of seeing them. Your points really don't mean anything, because you're simply twisting the words around to mean something they really don't. Yes, some of the responces are not quite up to scratch, but you really need to take a look at what is being said, rather than putting naught but snarky answers into the thread. It's not constructive and its not helpful. @Fannygirdle on Twitter | Co-Owner of The Scrying Pool, a future updates and lore clan

Lol, ease up on the bold text please. Yuck.
Anyways, I'm curious as to when this whole "we're never going to sell gp or xp!!" nonsense is going to stop. Those items are sold to players through the squeal of fortune, and we all know this is the truth.
You seem to enjoy claiming that this doesn't count because part of the process is left up to chance, but let's not forget what your justification for nerfing effigies was. Jagex claimed that the nerf was necessary because players weren't training skills as they were meant to be trained, despite the use of effigies for XP also being entirely chance-based.
Shouldn't the same logic apply in the case of SoF XP lamps? The only difference between them and effigies is that acquiring effigies still required that you actually devote time to the game, rather than simply enter credit card information.

Amascut, my posts are the result of MMG and Sabre's lies. If they would discuss things openly and honestly, I could do the same. While they instead talk down to us as if we're idiots or as if we're not people to be honest with, but instead are problems to be managed, then it is them who have ruined the chance of meaningful discussion, not I. I really do look at what's being said, everywhere, I don't just think "oh a Jmod said it it must be true," particularly when they contradict themselves.
Indeed, if what I was saying was factually incorrect, it would be a simple matter for Sabre to come back to the thread and post incontroverible evidence to show that is the case. The fact that he repeatedly disappears from threads after I point out the holes in his posts speaks volumes.
Nobody makes you read my posts if you don't like them, I suggest you ignore them in future if you don't like reading them. Your own post is entirely unconstructive and off topic for this thread, for that matter, although in general I've found your posts on other topics to be well thought out and useful.

Support for Galahad.
The good news is, these Q&A sessions are proving that you guys might have a successful future in politics. The whole "if you tell a lie frequently AND FORCEFULLY enough the public will eventually believe it" ideology is generally pretty popular there as well.

When I saw Akhet's post about her prizes from the SoF spins, I'm surprised Jagex can say it is not selling xp/gp.
I bought 75 spins to test it out and got a similar result.
To summarize: (I have a detailed word doc of spins and prizes)
I made a total of 307,506 xp from lamps of which I got a total of 41.
I made 140,800 gp in coins.
I sold items I won and made a further 170,162 gp. Gp total 310k
So in 15 minutes (total 23 minutes including writing up spins and gp/xp gained) I got 307k xp and 310k gp. I can't think of any legitimate way in game of getting that much xp/gp in 15 minutes. Thats approximately 1.2 mill xp per hour and 1 million gp per hour. And I don't have to train/grind skills, all I need is money and a peaceful place to stand for 15 minutes.
How is that not selling gp/xp? It seems like the best gp/xp 'skill' in the game.
Edit: Eek! Spelling

"Is SOF coded to give paying players better odds? I've not sent a single penny to SOF, and all I ever get is junk!"
NO, absolutely not, I can confirm that Squeal of Fortune has EXACTLY the same odds regardless of whether it’s free, paid or earned spin. I guess you have just been unlucky till now, some people have won phenomenal prizes from their free and earned spins.
-------------------------------------------------------------
please furthur verify as this sounds like the buyable spins feature is a total scam, as u have the same odds as someone with free spins.
