Is it jagex's fault if kids steal their parents credit card to desprately buy spins,because theyve become addicting to ingame gambling? We all know how easy even adults get addicted to gambling, so lets make it available to kids online! (just make it seem innocent as if it's ot gambling) Kids are paying money in hopes of winning a big reward. Sounds just like gambling to me. Sure no1 forces them too, but it's annoying to others who like to play the game fairly when rich kids are buying tons of xp with real money. Yes jagex needs money to fund all their new updates, but obviously they came up with a way that no1 likes...And i doubt any kids actually ask their parents to buy spins, so blaming it on the parents is the poorest excuse ive ever heard. You're probably just one of those people who buys spins all day and it benefits you, but what about people who barely can afford to payforr membership it today's economy. Completely ignorant. Jagex can find another way to make other revenue, if this is their last resort, that's sad

You guys do realise that by paying for membership you are in fact REAL WORLD TRADING. So just stop with the "omg jiggliex is promoting rwt!!!!?!!!!" If you pay for membership your supporting real world trade. Last time i checked buying membership with real money for some in game content was rwt.

It's obvious that not as many people are "Buying more Spins" as you had hoped,
So you shamelessly started putting in spins everywhere.
examples
2nd April: Jagex introduces Micro-Transactions for SOF, which Violated it's own
"Real world Trading" Rules, Jagex got wind of that and modified it's own "RWT" rules
so SOF no longer violated it.
24th April: Jagex introduces "Spin Tickets" as a reward for completing quests
and not rewarding people who upto that point had already completed all quests
citing "it would affect the economy" (sorry, but introducing SOF already did that)
Don't you see you're going against everything you claim to believe in,
just to do as much Penny Pinching as you can before you see the light.
You guys want our support, you really need to listen to the people.
The Squeal of Fortune was a good idea but the way it was introduced was
a bad way, it needs to be taken out of the game and earning tickets must
be "Uber-RARE" ..not buying them via Microtransaction, that way cheapens
your whole game.

@x V i n c e
We're more than welcome to pay JAGEX for access to the game, however, we cannot pay for status/advantages in-game (or at least it used to be that way). It's basically a matter of pay to play, versus pay to win. There's a difference. And the member's game isn't an advantage over free players because the leader boards provide no benefits and all member benefits are neutralized in free worlds. The free game is like the game's free trial.

There are better, more appropriate ways of getting money then having this sof garbage. Shoving it in the players faces will only hurt you in the long run, I suggest runescape themed plushness/other stuf and music tracks to sell
edit( just replacing a few thoughts with more productive ones)
