so what if all th promotional items come with a small bonus exp star too

No they dont and even if they did it wouldnt change anything. You are not guaranteed bonus xp from every single key but you are guaranteed to have some cereal even if your reward inside wasnt the one you wanted.

So you're saying we should always get the drop we want? Do you understand that there is always chance in all games? Why do you insist everything be free & 100%. TH isn't any more gambling than paying for membership, paying for bonds, doing pvp in cw, wildy, or the da.

And if you want to talk about school - do you also claim that extra credit and grading on a curve should be banned?


You do realise that argument has been rejected.

We are talking LAWS in this thread. Sorry laws said nothing then it is nothing. LAWS rejected nothing you said.

Stop comparing kinder, kellogs etc to loot boxes, they are products that contain cereal, chocolate that you still own even if you didnt get what you wanted because its the product that costs, not the prize within.


When you play a game, you don't own the game. If you pay to play a game, you pay for an entertainment. No difference than other entertainments like movies, TV or radio programs or paintball games. Games contain entertainments that you pay to enjoy but not to own.

In TH, you get your entertainment product and prizes no matter what. You always get a prize, you can always use the prize to enhance your product - the entertainment we called Runescape.

Exactly like Cereals and Kinder boxes, virtual items in video games which is an entertainment, is regulated under Commerce or e-Commerce in countries with such Consumer regulations . For instance, in Ireland:

“However, it should be understood," continued Stanton, "that if a game offers in-game purchases – be they loot boxes, skins, etc. – which are promoted to gamers as increasing their chances of success, such purchases are essentially a commercial or e-commerce activity. This activity would fall within normal consumer law.”
