Personal note: This might be offtopic, but it seems that you like to ridicule students, yet I remember some great revolutions which were started by a handful of students from my history classes ('68).


Please don't assume. Asking for clarification is better than jumping to conclusions. I applaud those students that are brave enough to ask a question :)


This is really getting off topic and I don't ridicule students at all. I just pointed out two students asked academic questions and made absolutely no comments about those students. There is nothing to ridicule them. Please use FH if you have any problem and we will see who is ridiculating who. Thanks. :)

- Your first argument/question is just weird, and makes no sense in my opinion, so I'll just ignore that one (and it's probably not millions, that would imply governments actually have work to do).


- Your opinion is that "no law has problems with TH": of course not, laws do not have problems, they do not feel, so of course no law has any personal issues with TH.

These are not my argument/question and opinions. They are FACTS.

People have tried, not that they didn't, but the LAWS, the real world LAWS are all on Jagex's side. Otherwise, why is TH is still runing? :D

I don't know, I feel like you're jumping the gun on the entire regulatory system,

It feels as if you're observing one momentary laps of events, as a picture:

- No regulations: no laws: It's not gambling, because one single country said they don't review it as gambling! They said so!

Sure, you can't change an entire legal system in a day, probably not even years, it takes time. I mean a lot of things used to be legal and aren't legal anymore a few years later :P


Mind me asking, since I like discussing this with you, what's your actual view of the system, do you feel it TH should be viewed as a possible gambling addiction or not?

Time they finish regulating they will wish it was gambling.


Nobody is "regulating" anything on the internet. Obviosly, they will never finish anything they don't even start... :D

Like in the UK, they tried to deal with internet toxicity and trolling. However, nobody is willing to pay the bill. All they can do almost 10 years later is to release a green paper to call for voluntary levies with the video game companies paying for their own expenses. What "regulation"? No. I guess what they talked to the true power with >9000 IQ, it got deleted. :D :D :D


Oh they've started. And yeah Jagex is paying.

One country? Numerous people have tried almost all the major countries but failed miserably.

USA, UK, Germany, Sweden, Ireland, France, New Zealand as well as 15 other EU countries all concluded Skin Gambling is the blur line but not loot boxes. Same thing in Australia especially they explicitly said they would only go after the big casinos even in the case of skin gambling.

China already cleared loot boxes. They have regulations, no problem at all. All the major Asian countries have long accepted Gacha and loot boxes. In fact, gambling is illegal in China and Korea and such countries. The fact they accept loot boxes means they are absolutely not gambling.

Facts speak louder than thunder, especially when the lone cricket in Belgium has been silenced since 16 months ago. :D

Jagex voluntarily joined the Fair Play Alliance. It is not even limited to UK. But we can see the how the online "regulations" work there... which is non-existent. :D

@ Bilbert, can you provide me any proof/public statements of that, so I can read up on it?

- Didn't you state earlier that no one's regulating anything, yet now you're stating China is :O

- Yet again, yelling 'facts' doesn't change your opinion into a fact, especially without any solid evidence. For the lone cricket in Belgium: I am pretty sure they succeeded, since you cannot open any loot boxes anymore, so how has that been a failure?
