@ 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?


The fact is China has finished their regulation more than 2 years ago. They are not "regulating" anything.

Facts from other countries like the meeting of the 16 EU countries have already been discussed in this thread as well as many others. No point to go in circle if you don't refuse to read through them first.

More importantly to Jagex. People have tried and miserably failed against TH. Too bad. Just accept the Smouldering Lamps and such then. :)

Told you already just read through all the posts in this thread. For instance, starting from page 6, there are comments and the links to the meeting of the 16 EU countries regarding online gambling, and they came out the statements the blur line is offsite gambling aka skin gambling.

I am not going in circle if you refuse to read the posts first when you come to a thread. I don't think keep going in circle is what this forum is for. Thanks.

You do know that during that meeting of the Gambling Regulators European Forum, 15 European regulators and the Washington State Gambling Commission signed a joint statement expressing concerns over loot boxes, skin betting and other similar practices, right? (2018)


And guess which country signed it as well...

"Neil McArthur, Chief Executive Officer,
UK Gambling Commission"

Read my comment above again. They concluded the meeting a long time ago and made the comment through their lead - UK already.

LOL. Their lead UK already told us loot boxes is not gambling. The harm? If you don't like it don't buy it. Video games are harmful according to WHO's ICD:11, with or without loot boxes anyway.
