Wouldn't it be better to just give the 200 millionth member 200 million gold coins...that way your only bringing in 200 million instead of potentially much much more into the games already ridiculously ruined economy. Why not instead make every world able to compete in members activities, or bring out a quest/event that thanks us as a player (breaking the fourth wall) and rewards us based upon our levels. Something fun and memorable, not just another excuse for people to spend money. I really hope someone responsible for coding the squeal realises what a HUGE waste of potential this is and decides to make it unobtainable. Would be an insta-hero to everyone.

Click here and type your message:Instead of putting 200m on the SoF why not just put a special "200m coin" that says like "200m" on it in everybody's invent, like a cosmetic item and add an "activate" where you flip the coin up and down on your thumb like in old western movies. xP
I like this idea. It should have been this instead. The current plan contributes to Spinscape retardation.

Oh God Why.
Jagex Jagex Jagex,,, the way you collect your info regarding people 'liking' the squeel by checking who uses it, okay ... but if you ever read the forums, nobody ever claims to want a SoF update!
there are so many things to fix, so many others thing that could be created, but instead, all time goes into SoF.
i haven't seen 2 clean weeks straigth without a SoF update, first time it launched i was pretty excited about it, seeing it as a small daily activity with a chance to have a bit of luck in your unlucky day.
but then SoF began expanding, in a -HIDDEN UPDATE!- Microtransactions got added and in -ANOTHER HIDDEN UPDATE!- the amount of buyable spins got increased.
also, then there came these free spin rewards from quests, which Quest Capers really angered!
And a week or 2 later, we began having the 'Mad May'-weekends, everything was about SoF and Rewards again, and everybody once again went: why jagex, why?
but this couldn't be the end, and so jagex released an updated Fish Flingers, which is really great and stuff, but it couldn't, once again, go without a SoF update, and thus "Squeel of Neptune" was born, along with a Tradeable Rare Item, which will become discontinued after the summer (along with Dragon and queen ceremonial cosmetic items).
A week after that, an out-of-nowhere update was released which gave discounts to buying spins for a period of time.
And now... A 200m grand-prize on the SoF? 5x Gold Increase permanent?
For Ever!?!
The hell jagex, We Don't Want Updates Of The Squeel Of ****Youne!
Yes, we use the squeel because this goblin always appears on the UI, and there is a tab, and we use what we can't get rid off!
You Developers only update the squeel because the coding takes 5-10 minutes max, so arguments about using dev time elsewhere is invalid in your eyes.
BUT! JUST STOP THOSE DAMNED UPDATES!, EVERYTIME THERE ARE RANTS ABOUT THEM! OPEN YOUR YES FOR A TIME! OPEN A VOTING IF YOU WANT THE TRUE OPINIONS OF THE PLAYER BASE!

Jagex i'm sorry but you're actually disgusting. I sure hope that the whole company didn't all agree to this. Jagex, you are without a doubt the most hypocritical people ever, you are now officially selling gp. This is so pathetic... So much for '200m accounts' the majority care about a fun event, yet you call this fun? We are already paying for membership, now you're giving us an update like this? Go on continue this and watch more people who rage like this... Just casually implement money grabbing events such as this... You're so pathetic....

Well said Glacial Wolf
Jagex should be ashamed of what they are doing, 200Million accounts is a genuinely impressive achievement. They should be celebrating this with the players who made it possible. It could be a really Feel Good Weekend. Instead they are trying to use it as an excuse to fleece their player base out of as much money as possible. Putting 200 Million cash prizes on squeal is that just the start? What comes next?:
If I thought any jagex employees had a sense of decency I would appeal to it...but I suspect all those Mods have already left the company.
No doubt we will read later that all your players love this update lol.
As I said...you should be deeply ashamed
