they already read the messages about players meaning of legalizing RWT for themselves before. the company that paid andrew gower for his game just dont care! the company that toke over jagex just wants to make quick money (why give like 450 millions to andrew gower if you cant get it back lmao), but they wont make quick money, they will ruin the game and make real players quit and deceive stupid rich boys to buy ingame gold until they release that its wasted because its like a private server where everything is free (you just need irl cash). i thought games got their cash from playing players (like views, like on twitch), not from buying players.. but they wont listen to us, they just keep making new ways to transfer irl cash to gps just like the third parties and even rig their own polls which surely from my meaning is even worse than third parties doing RWT and seen from a righteousness mind illegal because players works hard in games, and if you rig a poll to make cash and in that also destroy the players hard work. to me andrew gower is still the owner and its just a third party that toke over jagex.

Honestly bonds are a sane choice, only good comes out of it and reduces rule breaking. But if it's gonna be killing f2p by shutting a real f2p down forever and we are stuck with a dumb 2 week trial it's hurting the big picture.


Jagex is sneaky and deceptive with their details when it comes to an update they have personal preference in. They'll make the 2 week trial permanent with bonds

I just noticed with all this bond drama going on....the runefest announcement has been completely ignored :)


Runefest is going to be a riot (not the good kind).


I doubt it. People said the same thing about last year's Runefest and nothing happened.

If there were going to be real life microtransaction riots, it would have been at the 2012 Runefest (the one that never happened).

HELL no. Players already have an option for earning bonds through the main game on the same account they use for OldSchool. I don't want to see players' in-game achievements tied to their real world wealth by way of purchasing bonds to sell to other players. No thanks!

This.

Well, Runefest was the first time Jagex gave something in game for cash.

There was actually a decent sized resistance to giving out banners for going to the first Runefest. Some people claimed to have bought rickets to ensure they could get the item, and a spot was made for it in PoH's, making a full PoH unobtainable for anyone who didn't get a ticket.

Now Runefest is so connected with RWT that they want to make bonds here.

Given Runefest was the first baby step, it could come to represent RWT for the OSRS community, who remember those banners and may be getting bonds "because" of it.
