"Gambling" is very different from illegal gambling. Don't see where anyone said it was illegal.

Don't see where I can only make my comments in reply to somebody else's.

Thanks for your comment, anyway.

Thanks for your comment, anyway. You can PM them instead of posting on a forum
Or quote their message as an indicator. But that would be hard since nobody said TH is illegal. You'll get it when you deserve it.

The UK Gambling Commission said loot box and therefore TH is not gambling:

"We've not in any way, in the survey, referred to it (loot box) as exposure to gambling," a Gambling Commission spokesperson told GamesIndustry.biz. "The reason we've asked that question is that it's a very popular subject matter and we want to try and make sure that we have as much information and data around it as possible."

However, betting between friends such as staking in Duel Arena is gambling:

"

What the Commission's report actually found was that the most common gambling activities are making private bets with friends

, National Lottery scratchcards, slot machines and playing cards for money with friends. Even were the report to conflate online gambling with loot boxes, which it does not, online gambling rates are relatively low. "

So if you are really concern about "gambling" in any Jagex games, be aware that the UK governments have no issues on TH. However, be advised to think twice about staking your Twisted Bow for your friend's whip in the Duel Arena.

I hope you remember...was it "Squeal of Fortune" or was it TH, where many parents argued and complained to Jagex that one of those two were forcing their children into gambling. In the end Jagex ended up having to do something about it. For some reason I feel it could happen again, if not in the near future then possibly in the far future.[/quote]

I hope you remember... "Sequel of Fortune" or TH used the same random reward mechanics as all the other loot boxes in other games. It won't matter at all. They are still being called "loot boxes" as a whole by every governments, UK Gaming Commission included.

I hope you remember... This thread is "Is Treasure Hunter gambling", not what you think will happen to Sequeal of Fortune", will it happen again, or in the near or far future.
