So basically what you are saying is that treasure hunter and loot boxes are linked to gambling, spending disorder, gaming disorder and general behaviour disorder. So Jagex is deliberately preying on all of those people.
Can you remind me of the benefit of treasure hunter and loot boxes?
Since you are incapable of answering a question though I will answer myself
There is no benefit of treasure hunter
There is no need for treasure hunter
Treasure Hunter can only cause harm.

it did not find loot boxes are gateway to gambling,
No links between loot boxes and TH to gambling
do you see any difference in your words
why are you trying to misrepresent what they said
why are they suggesting that the government invest in more research?
how do you think that is going to stop jagex becoming regulated and being held liable for the harm they are causing.
Clearly the smart people in the games industry do not agree with you berty.
Clearly told both the governments said there is NO LINKS between loot boxes and gambling.
Clearly told you they asked to spend money on research to Online Harm but not loot boxes.
Clearly said no regulation can even be talked about because there is no justification. The regulation is on Harmful online trolling, bullying and disinformation, not to even mention death threats. And Jagex should welcome this. Not only Jagex but Donald Trump, Prince Harry, Twitch, the CEO of Respanwn among a lot of people in the world will rejoice.

You might want to watch it again, considering it has finished and decisions have been made, and the report is being prepared. which will be out not long now.
I will try to keep this on-topic (the topic is not about a specific someone's behavior). That said, if I do not like the way someone is replying/reacting to my input, I simply will not acknowledge or quote for a reply.
I hope we can keep this going in a way that is not targeting fellow players of this wonderful thing we call Runescape
Yes, the decision has been made. They are going to fund the world's first regulatory framework to combat Online Harm, but uh oh... no loot boxes on the list.
They are going to ask the companies to voluntarily enforce forums and in game safety. Certain activities and keywords will be outlawed. So be prepared some people will get muted and barred from entering the games by LAW. They can freely talk about and enjoy loot boxes though.
I've read your comments, you're quite passionate about this stuff it seems! After going through it all, I must say you make a strong case for the need of even more regulations, even across countries and governmental institutions.
It does seem that this will be inevitable, so it'll just be a waiting game, so it seems.

While UK Gambling Commission's stance remains unchanged, a recent survey by Dr David Zendle and Dr Paul Cairns of York St. John University and University of York supported academic claims that loot boxes are "psychologically akin to gambling".
This is the only reference that I can find to any kind of behavioural psychologist in that magazine article.
Please do post the link to the behavioural psychology report that states there is no link between gambling and loot boxes and treasure hunter and that it isn't a gateway.

I've posted multiple researches linking both. The main shortcoming: scientific research needs a more longitudinal study it would seem.

won't be long, it has been considered a simple problem to solve which can be dealt with quickly and easily compared to many other internet harms that is.
