Mod Redfox : you did not answer evil crown3 's question/comment with yours.

So I will restate it: if the exchange rate of gold for real life money offered by JAgex is worst then the one by goldfarmers.. how will this stop them having customers?
Jagex is not selling gold for money and do not intend to do so.

The cost of bonds purchased in-game through the Grand Exchange or through player-to-player trades is determined by players depending on what they perceive the value of the bond to be for them - whether that be for an item or simply given away to a friend.

THIS STATEMENT FROM JAGEX IS TOTAL B.S. They now the new gold dealers.

The mod just stated that the gold farming sites are injecting gold into the game, care to elaborate, do they have a program to simply "make gold", otherwise they have had to gather resources sell those and then in turn sell the gold that was already in game. Are you making the statement that these companies can simply make gold and inject it in the game by selling it?

Edit ...and further done the mod states that they are going to save us money....cough cough...ok...

The goldfarmers were making gold in game by creating nature runes and high alching items, thus increasing the supply of GP in the game by billions per day and causing massive inflation and destabilising the market.

So alching in your opinion is injecting new gold in the game....makes no sense...

How does that not make sense? It is literally creating new gold and injecting it into the game.
So? It's not against the rules to alch something, in fact it's part of the game. What you're suggesting is a fix for the problem would be to limit alching per day and force people to train magic in other ways.

Why isnt there a picture of a wealthy mod in the examples section? lol this is just to give runescape more money like solomon store, and this doesnt even help the gamers that much, we want more content and less money making schemes.

lol, if they gived bonds for consecutive paid memberships, now that would actually be beneficial to us, but this... its just to put more money in their pockets.

Good job jagex, now you support real world trading, as long as you are the ones that makes the money.

Most players do not have 100 accounts high alching nearly 24 hours a day and generating over 150 million gp for themselves every day.

There is nothing wrong with a single player high alching, but there is something wrong with a bot army of 100 doing it then selling the gold and upsetting the game economy. Hi.

I don't think that what they mean by injecting gold, i think these companies found a way to make gold, otherwise their gold would have dried up after all the bots were eliminated and would be no need to try and compete with them by allowing players to trade a purchased item for gold coins.

MMG used that phrase, too, but I don't understand what you mean.

All the gp the illegal real world traders sold to cheating players was already in the game before they sold it. They didn't manufacture it out of thin air. They couldn't.

Heya Nabu Rimanni ,

The gold obtained by Gold farmers is usually acquired through illegal or malicious means - be this hijacking, botting or scamming.

They essentially cheat to get the gold, or take your gold and then sell it back to you. This creates a one-way trade where gold enters the economy with no counter balance. In order for an economy to be stable, there has to be trade in both directions.

I realise that there is a trade in the opposite direction i.e. Real world money, however this money does not exist within RuneScape, creating an unstable economy.

The difference with Bonds, is that BOTH parties benefit in-game from the trade! Be it through wealth gain, or other tangible means (Membership, Runecoins etc.)

But it's still a loophole that people can exploit and since people can exploit it some will. If that was the true root of the problem I think Jagex would have cleaned up alching a long time ago.

Finally an answer, and by the video posted most bots have been eliminated, so now we are left with these companies using hijacking and scamming to inject gold into the game. So now the only explanation we have to why jagex would introduce a system that allows a player to buy an item and exchange it for gold coins is....we are trying to help those who stand around w2 scam each other then buy the gold back so they can try and scam some more....wooooow
