100% no. I like runescape 2007 being a game where the statement "we don't want players real life status to affect them in-game" is still true. Not to mention this will open up more microtransactions into old school that nobody wants or needs.

Please don't bring bonds to osrs. Firstly, if people really want bonds for membership, then they can go on the main game to pay for them. People might ask: what if I have no money on rs3?-Transfer money from osrs to rs3. Secondly, if people really want bonds to sell for gp, then they can go on the main game and then transfer the money over to osrs.
That being said, I don't think transferring money from game to game should be allowed...it's just another thing giving certain people an upperhand (which the game never used to be about).

Jagex, you say that you only poll popular ideas among the community, yet you're trying to poll bonds when people are practically begging for tormented demons and corp?

Also, stop trying to focus on this dumb stuff and development actual content already! Hurry up with that continent. I'm waiting.

Please no OSRS Bond's. They will diminish the economy and people will suffer the consequences. If you really need to play on a member account then buy a bond that is already in the game or pay for it! And everyone have fun at Runefest!

Just to be clear if OSRS gets bonds I will QUIT and never look back.
Come on Jagex, keep what little dignity you have left. You already lost almost all my respect by implementing pay to win. You know, that thing you solemnly vowed to never implement.

Bonds = rwt legalized so jagex can reap rewards instead of botmasters.

Online gaming should be about having fun and should be about ingame achievements. It should not be about irl wealth determining what you can or can't do ingame.

Bonds? No thanks.
Isn't it strange that so many players blindly apply to clans, without ever wondering why there are openings in that clan?

I do not want to see bonds in oldschool runescape. I understand that you want another revenue stream, but I think this will loose you revenue. I have always been in favor if 07 scape being a near stand-alone game, very separate from eoc and I feel that bringing bonds into oldschool will obliterate that facade. This being said, what I am really against is rwt made legal. I am all for using in game gp to buy membership or runefest tickets, but we should not be able to buy bonds with real life currency. In my opinion (and maybe I'm being obsessive compulsive) the knowledge that jagex allows players to essentially buy items and skills would taint the entire game.
