The SOF has to go. Get rid of the ability to buy spins. Turn the squeal of misfortune in to a weekly or a daily mini game where one needs to win tickets to play. Remove the experience lamps, get rid of the lucky items. Keep cosmetic items & some of the general ones. The SOF has already caused a crash of some items of worth because a large amount of those goods keep coming in & then get dumped cheap by SOF winners driving prices down
THE BUY-ABLE USE OF THE SOF MUST GO! Jagex you used to tell us that a persons wealth in real life should not give those others an unfair advantage. You also used to say there would never been any real world trading. Now you go about slapping all of us old school players. You have gone & committed the greatest sin of all. You now break your own ethics & rules. Jagex you now blatantly go against what used to be a great set of ethics
Jagex you have become leaches. Worthless scum sucking bottom feeders. NOW you are abusing your player base. Time and time again you kick us & when we are down you are shoving the SOF up our assess. It is bad enough that we are now forced to see a crap load of advertisements for Pay to play game content
There never used to be so many pop up advertisements telling us to buy membership. 1/3 - 1/2 screen adds now tell us in order to use cer tain features we must buy a membership. My free to play used to be fun to play. Now it no longer is as much fun. F2P is now just 1 giant add to buy membership
I'm a member on 2 accounts, can you guess who my other 2 toons are? 2 accounts qualify for the 10 Year veteran's cape. 1 account buys a regular membership while 2 others are dormant. This toon rarely gets played. Can you guess why I don't buy membership for my other accounts more often?
If you cant guess why I don't spend more money here perhaps you need to go back & take another look at the great community you have destroyed with your corporate greed
If we can't break the rules what gives you the bleeding right to!

"We don’t want players to be able to buy their way to success in RuneScape. If we let players start doing this, it devalues RuneScape for others. We feel your status in real-life shouldn’t affect your ability to be successful in RuneScape"

Lose more, lose big.
Break contracts with pop-up ads for members.
Ignore player feedback and insult them with lies.
Celebrate 200 mio accounts, most of them gold farming and RWT ad bots.
Make officially sanctioned RWT the core of the game, and abandon your business ethics for the people you sold out to.

How pathetic.

Buying spins would actually work out for me. I think it works well with people who have jobs, because while the teenagers are playing 16 hour days some of us are working. So buying spins evens out the balance. It makes it more fair for the people who don't have as much time to play. What happens to all these loyal customers when they have to get jobs? I don't know about everyone who plays Runescape but I know I consider it a challenge and a race. So when I dont play because of work, I feel even more like I'm in a race when I play.
Perhaps another reason Jagex decided to allow players to buy spins is to attempt to ensure that a greater percentage of the older players would continue to play. I started playing this game when I was 14, I'm almost 23 now. I have 116 days on Adventurers Log, with 1926 total point and 87.3mil Total XP. I already lost the race. In the time since I signed up, someone else could have 2 accounts with max capes by now. But I worked a lot (thats why the numbers above are the way that they are.) and I found it very easy to enjoy other stuff other than Runescape.
Other players have done the same, its what us esoteric people like to refer to as, having a life, haha. I'm in so much of a race lately to level that I get overwhelmed with the amount of stuff that there is to do, and what I finally realised one day was, Runescape is hard. If I plan on getting a completionist cape, with a job, it will take me well over 10 more years. Thats too long of a wait for me.
Theoretically, if I bought spins for the first time and started using them, then I would subconciously feel that I am catching up to everyone. I don't want to live and breathe Runescape. I just want everything slightly easier, and with the SoF, still in need of a few tweaks, everything seems fine. Kids with rich parents buying spins for them doesnt bother me. I'm just always more understanding than most people. So I don't really have a reason. One day, you just might not care. =\
