Bonds are mass rising for no reason while methods of obtaining bonds stay stagnant and this is by design of course to strongarm people into buying monthly membership via real money instead of bonds, L game all the people playing this game solely using bonds literally cannot afford to play anymore, there goes the majority of your player base, congrats Jagex you're just taking L after L after L after L, I can't believe what a joke this company has turned into, and what do players get for the massive price increase in bonds?

Just in case you were wondering you got 14 days of membership for bonds when they were ONLY 6 MILLION GP now they're 85M GP and you get a whole extra 2 days of membership time, wow JAGEX THANKS I'm so done with this game you've been spitting in our faces for so long while we stuck around loyal to you, there's no defending you now, I'm not paying you for massive grind and super low drop rates you're quite literally insane. Jagex/JMods can make it stop by limiting bonds-hoarding to a maximum of 12 bonds per '
Jagex account
' ... which all have to be used first with purchases before you are able to hoard a new stack of 12 bonds.
Trespassing the hoarding-limit by using 'multiple Jagex accounts/alts' will not be possible.

This way bonds are kept in an continuous loop of being used/traded and merchers kept at bay.

This is a really good idea but I doubt Jagex would implement it as it earns them IRL cash when whales get to hoard and manip prices the way they do, if they implemented this whales would stop buying bonds and it would hurt end profits which is a shame because it hurts regular every day players like us so it's a lose lose in the long run as they'll earn profits now but later down the road they'll lose out on mass players due to lack of being able to obtain members and then lose whales due to nobody buying bonds LOL

With that cap at 12, players can still buy a years membership with bonds. The purpose of my idea is, is to take bonds from the hoarding-table making them absolutely worthless to hoard as you have to keep bonds moving through trades.
Maybe not a 'perfect' idea but what is?

why though?

there are a number of reasons bonds increase or decrease in price

inflation
th events
promotions
updates
days of the year (november being when majority need to renew premier as it use to be november you could do it)

merching is a legitimate way of making money in the game, and jagex have done something with bonds for that,
1. there is a cap of 500
2. to make them tradeable again costs 10% of the ge value

why do you want to punish a legitimate play style for no reason other than "bonds have gone up" when it isnt 100% down to merchers.

people like to jump on "its the merchers fault" just an easy scapegoat. when in reality it holds very little position in changing the actual price of the item. the ones i have listed do way more

but this is a free market in runescape, and this comes with that, people are going to hoard to try make money, but its not 100% going to work it is a risk that can also lose a lot of money.

you put a target / making out people who merch are the bad guys when they arent.

if you really do want to combat the "issue" of bonds rising this is not the way forward.

Putting a cap on them will just make them even more expensive, because then there are fewer of them around.

Besides, they have fallen by 6.6M since yesterday, so what is the problem?

why though?

... In the '
RuneScape Community
' we give every individual a chance to enjoy playing RuneScape. We share digital space to enjoy playing an online game with other likeminded people '
around the Globe
'.

What merchers do is '
is fencing an area of opportunities
' and claiming it is theirs '
unwilling to be shared with others
' unless they pay an extremely high price, a price that still is on the rise.

This has nothing to do with ... enjoyment/entertainment/socializing ... anymore. This isn't sharing an online game anymore.

The purpose of bonds wasn't to be a tool for merchants to control the game. It never was.

The prupose of bonds was ... through gameplay paying for a persons membership.

Now it is a tool to extort ... .

For a bond sending it back on the market it increases a chance for others to obtain a bond they already are waiting for for ages for a more acceptable prise.
