@Rastan, probs not since Jagex recently promised never to introduce classes to Runescape since they hate the idea, but who knows?

This is seriously ********.... 1.05 MILLION xp in ANY skill??? this makes my max cape I'm about to get and have worked for eight years for completely useless. Especially if they will keep doing this ****.
And getting strong in game items for IRL-cash? Sell it on the SoF instead. -.-
This might very well be one step closer to the end of RS. RS2 is dead, RWTS (Real world trading scape) has come alive.

Not really, if you scroll through the posts, you'll see that the majority is. Including me. This entire thing is a scam, a way to get some money before they kill the game for good.

I find it interesting how we humans work .. I see way too many people who come up with conclustions when they have barely got a hint of the "Choose your faith" reward, thats really dangerous if it's put into the real life living style ;) . Think about that for a minute for all you complainers, who complain and make conclusions of things that have never been said, therefor you are making up lies.
Free XP is not bad? It's not even THAT much XP unless you are low level in the skill, then you will gain a couple of levels, however those levels would of been very easy to gain anyways. However for those with higher stats these 350k+350k (Or is it 350k+700k?) it could be one single level up, possibly 1,5-2, thats a rather big thing in my eyes but it's not too much.

An attempt to make money? There is no company who doesnt NEED to make money in order to survive, just ACCEPT IT, if you had a company you would want to make money, and to make money you need to offer something to the customers, in this case XP, spins, cosmetic items and "the most powerful items in the game", even the majority of the charity companies makes some/big profits of your donations.

CHOOSE YOUR FAITH, yeah, it may be a hint of choosing between range/melee/mage, does it have to be a weapon? No. It can be other items, like more powerfull boots, rings, a "powerful" look of a cosmetic item.. ETC.
Doesnt have to be something that KILLS other things, it doesnt even have to be a stat booster!
Oh and one more thing, Jagex changed their policies about RWT a while after launching their real world trading items, making them able to do so.
And people who buy their items dont get a bigger advantage in the game (Unless extremely lucky on SoL, which is a low chance), the only thing they get is to show off their RealLifeWEALTH they have, with nice cosmetic items. Yes, it could be something you want but cant afford.. Well, get a item in game instead.
----PS. These new items will most likely not be tradable.. -.-

Found an awesome quote, going to use it from now on.
Also, this thing is crap.

@2rs2pure
How long have you played for....?
If you had any idea how hard it was to get xp back then you wouldn't be cheering over all the free xp that makes weeks of job pointless.
Also, when it comes to CHOOSE YOUR FATE (p.s. might wanna change your "faith" to "fate" since they have very different meanings), it doesn't matter if it's a new version of the rapier or just a cosmetic outfit that looks "powerful". What matters is that it's a pathetic attempt to try to keep members since they know that during these months lots of people will unsubscribe do to jobs, studies and EOC.

I'm quite opposed about all this RWT stuff Jagex are doing, expecially after that recent-ish crackdown on RWT. But instead of putting energy into complaining about it I'm not going to use it, and ignore it. I'd like the option to be able to hide the SoF/Solomon tab on the HUD but that's about it. I like the SoF, but I wouldn't buy spins.
As far as the XP is concerned, 350,000 XP a month really isn't that bad. If you're logged on you're probably earning XP one way or another, and 350,000 isn't really that hard to get if you're a member. Sure, it'd be bad if you used in for a level 1 skill and went straight to 65 (Or whatever it is) but maybe Jagex could put a cap on it, we have to divide the XP between skills over 60 and no more than 75,000 on each skill.
And in regards to a post I saw on the front page - What? They've got rid of BXP weekends? I was stashing oak planks for that as well, and they're not cheap D: (Well, they are, but they're still fairly pricy in bulk.)

Possible options for CYF items:
Teleport crown - allows you to teleport to any coordinates in the game and back to a home point, which is whatever coordinate you tell it is
Nerf Staff - Contains unlimited amounts of runes of every type with a .01% damage penalty while fighting
The ground excavator. Searches the ground beneath you for ore-containing rocks. Takes 1 second to find iron, 5 for coal, 10 for mith, 15 for addy, and 20 for rune. The veins are concentrated and you are guaranteed a minimum of 10 rocks per. Specific to player so no more fighting against others for rocks.
The Jeremy Wade - Bill Dance fishing lure. 100% chance of catching fish up to sharks. Recharges after 10 seconds.
Portable Prayer Power - Small box that contains up to 500x your prayer points, can only be recharged at any altar. Automatically replenishes your prayer when you run out
The nifty noober - automatically plants flowers, dominion tower markers, and clan vexillium's in a 20x20 space around the caster. Guaranteed to **** off everyone in the room
Bank interest codes - money in your bank now collects an 33% interest rate, compounded daily
Totable Tank - sets up like a multi-cannon. Has 100,000 lp. All enemies in area focus on totable tank before focusing on you
Token accelerator - stop wasting so much time on grinding for arena tickets, dungeon tokens, produce points, and all those other pesky things that take forever to get. Now with token accelerator, your tokens are multiplied by 100 for 6 hrs a day

To the person who said RS is a company that is just trying to make money:

No, sorry, in the end they are a company who made a game who got bought out by a venture capital group (corporate raiders), who don't give a flying flip about whether the game lives or dies so long as the realize a profit from the investment. They are looking at a long to super long term investment to realize lower tax rates. If they feel like RS is on a downward spiral, they put a band aid on the leaky pipe, pressure Jagex to make more updates, more promotions, basically, anything to bring in money, and then they haul in the cash and bolt.
