Spinning on the Squeal of Fortune has never been easier! The Squeal of Fortune now has a multi-spin switch allowing you to use up to 10 spin tickets in one go – spend less time spinning and more time winning! We have also added a couple of useful keyboard shortcuts to help spin the wheel: spin the wheel, claim your prizes and play again with the space bar, and discard unwanted items with a few clicks of the D key (you'll be prompted before this happens).

Why do you always have a massive exp event for members only each time you release a new cash shop update?
And why do you never mention on your Youtube vids that 90% of the updates they're seeing are for paying members only.
And on top of that, another half of those updates are for your cash shops.
Runescape is advertised as a f2p game.
Yet it has half the skills, half the world, half the armour, a a tenth of the quests, only gets 4 updates a year or so besides holiday events.
Members get 99% of stuff, but to access all of it they have to spend months doing the same actions over and over for the skill level.
It keeps you a member for a long time, but it's clear that many people don't enjoy the grind or else why would they have a bot do it for them?
Or buy spins so they can pay to skip the grind.
Or go to afkable training spots so they don't have to do it.
