Wait wait wait wait wait. Why not just put 2 week mems, x quantitiy of spins, or 150 runecoins as ge items with a set price, and sell them directly to players that way. Then everyone has the option to buy mems or other items with in game coins, and there is no rwt invovled. But oh wait, that one wouldn't make profits now would it?

The only other problem I have with it is that it came completely out of nowhere... I would like to have some notice before hand. I see how this could act negatively (with the large amount of opposition to the update already) but I think it is necessary. Just my two cents.
Hi there,
The decision to release this update without any prior notice was made to try and avoid any potential negative side effects of giving advanced warning. One negative side effect could have been goldfarmers deciding to dump all of their wealth into the economy all at once prior to bonds being released.

poor very poor, jagex selling runescape gold

1m = 37 cents

all i have to say is lol still cheaper to buy from gold farmers, so +1 to gold farmers and gold sellers ?
Jagex are not selling gold and have no intention of doing so. The introduction of bonds does not result in any new gold being added into the game. This new system allows players to control the movement of their wealth, and the benefits within the game. Players can trade bonds for an item at the price they decide and this moves wealth within the player economy without creating or injecting new gold into this economy.


you really need a better comeback

But won't they just dump all their wealth now anyway?

People complain to much, It's not going to ruin anything? Don't like the fact working people can buy money now? get yourself a weekend job kids.

Btw. I remember people saying worlds are empty now? Because of the bots getting banned/half of the players going to the oldskool servers.

Guess what? Your see more players in them Member Worlds now! You can't win?

I've put a little bit of thought in this and this is a really smart move on jagex's side. People wanting to gain more wealth can now safely buy bonds from jagex without risking anything and sell it for the price the players decided it should be. This also means gold will be flowing from accounts to accounts, 07'scapers might put their gold back in the game so they don't have to pay real money to play, and above all: no new gold is added into the game. This is not a source of gold, it is even a money sink!
There's a whole lot more to say about this, but for now:
Good job jagex, great move.
To everyone complaining and ranting already: Read the post througly and please put a bit of thought to it.

What i dont understand is how jagex have the cheek to say this isn't rwting:

Buy bonds with rl gp
Sell bonds seconds later for rs gp

???

What happened to that your financial status irl shouldn't effect your game play motto?

Anyway no point making gp on this game may as well go get a job flipping burgers


Why not just do a poll and see what the players seriously want instead of trying to cover your greed by saying its beneficial to us.

I like the idea of buying membership with rsgp but bringing rl into it is just greedy.

I bought 2 bonds from the ge at 7.5 and 7.6. So it's about $0.67 per million at the moment.

That probably will work for adult RWTers since the extra cost is worth avoiding the risks. But the majority are probably kids using their parents cards and are too young to realise the risks of illegal RWTing.
