"Hi, my name is Sam and I have been playing RuneScape for 6 months now. I love training combat, but some better equipment and armour would really help me.
I want to buy Bonds and swap them for some ganodermic armour
. I might finally be able to join my friends on a Nex run!"

So basically if people want to BUY runescape coins they can buy bonds instead of buying from gold sites. Totally not real world trading...

I am confused, bonds buy runecoins... runecoins are used in soloman shop. The articles on this topic use the term GP when referring to gold farms. How is runecoins in solomans shop going to stop plays from purchasing GP to buy items that are not in solomans shop...

Bonds once bought can then be sold in the GE or to other players directly for ingame gp. There is a demand for peopel to buy those bonds for GP because they want a free way to get Runecoins/membership etc. Thus people can use bonds as a means to gain gp for real life money.

I suppose the theory is that it will lure some people who were buying from gold farmers to instead use a safe method that is within the rules from Jagex.

bump up the # of spins per bond to more reflect the other features. As far as I'm aware, using bonds on membership or runecoins is only slightly less efficient than buying them straight. Buying spins on the other hand is closer to 10% as efficient.

That or remove the squeal of fortune entirely. You can always do that. Headcanon Haven, where everything is made up and the points don't matter.

oh Thank you Hobbles14, let me see if I have got this...

Player A can use real life gp to purchase a bond and sell it to Player B and receive in game gp for it. Previously known in it's former as rwt purchasing in game gp for real life gp

Player B uses in game gp to purchase a bond that will enable them to purchase an item that previously could only be purchased in game using real life gp.

Player B may purchase the bond to obtain 14 days membership, 8 spins or 160 RuneCoins.
$6.00 AUS to buy 1 bond
$5.00 AUS to buy 200 runecoins
$8.20 1 month of membership
$5.00 10 spins

Ok I get it now, jagex is giving the rs community members with limited real life gp the opportunity to be real live bots for rs community members who have un limited real life gp...

Isn't that how it already is? only we swopping macro programs for real live people?

You pretty much have the idea.

I think this game needs more junk like this so it can feel even more pay to win, and I think jagex needs more money so they can spend it on developing crap instead of fixing the blatantly obvious bugs that exist within the game.
