"Yes, I did state that we were working on some content to deal with the "mobile gambling devices" (like flowers, eggs, seal emotes etc) that players use. And we are!

Well that is worrying...
If I'm honest, the issue I have with gambling in RS does not stem from worrying about the safety of those who gamble with with hosts. Of course I never like to see a friend scammed, I must say a lot bring it on themselves in this intance. I suppose though one of the larger issues I have is that the people profiting from it are of a questionable variety, so it would be nice to see a stop to that.
Although if it is not as equal an alternative for moneymaking as current gambling out there, won't the gamblers just move onto other methods? But if it is a viable alternative is that really fair and balanced to all the other methods of making money out there>
