What I want is for Jagex to pay attention to not just the bond prices, but how long it'll typically take a f2p player to earn one in game. I'm not too happy about the slow inflation of bonds while the money making methods get more and more degraded. Bots and related RWT issues are part of the problem to be sure, but I think there are other factors at work too. At the very least, we should consider the effect bond inflation will have on retaining newer players. Also, bond inflation combined with decreasing income from legit play is the sort of thing that entices players to engage in RWTing, gambling, scamming and other such behaviors against the rules.
Bonds were one of the reasons I came over to OSRS in the first place. I saw it as a way of testing my experience with the game, and I felt two weeks of membership with a bond was fine for semi-casual play. I don't want to see the prices explode to the levels they are in RS3.
