I'm curious to see if bought spins have different %'s than daily spins.

If they do work like gravity's lucky bags (specially requiem ones), you do. Except they are far more shameless about it (they even show the increase in %), which Jagex will prob try to avoid showing. This is basically a rip off of lucky bags, and I can GARANTEE YOU, as a former requiem player, people WILL overuse this for the sake of getting in-game content without actually working for it.

I just hope it doesn't get to the sickening point that requiem reached (or at least not as bad), where the only people left playing are those who payed thousands to get their equipment, cash, etc... in game, so the game is pretty much a ghost town. It's almost certain the tickets you can buy have better chance of good rewards, so except people buying out these for easy levels, items AND cash.

I never thought I would say this, but runescape has indeed reached its point of no return, I actually feel sad about this, seen so many good mmorps destroyed by this very same idea... Oh well, guess I was meant to quit eventually...

Newspost is delayed because even Jagex doesn't know how to sell this?

I used the Double Spin Tickets as soon as I got them and the "Earned" spins are used before the bought ones so you should be able to figure out which spins are Earned ones and which are not.

Remember guys and gals... It's a touchy update. I'm even ticked off at Jagex, but we still have to follow their rules as well as TIF's.

Thanks guys! Hopefully Jagex will rethink this one...

[Salleh]

Oh god. I just hope the cash they get from doing this actually goes into content for us. Otherwise, stupid idea is stupid.

If you already subscribe via credit card you just have to press a button! No details needed! How thoughtful of them.

In all seriousness, wasn't credit card and paypal fraud one of the original reasons for removing free trade?  And now they have added a feature that pretty much encourages fraud to obtain in game advantages.

I can see younger people accidently bankrupting parents if that's true.

It's that simple? You don't have to go through an order confirmation screen or anything? You literally just have to press a buttion?

Wouldn't they lose MASSIVE amounts of money in charge-back fees from the parents who the CC belongs to?

[Jonanananas]

Ummm....at Runefest, Jagex said they wouldn't be introducing an in-game casino because it would be a "legal nightmare" due to gambling laws...

Excuse me, but isn't this gambling? A lot more than an in-game casino even would be, considering that GP only have real world value if you break the rules....whereas here there's no doubt about the real world value...?

I would hope theres a confirmation screen. I haven't even bothered to log in with all honesty so I can't say for sure if its a simple button or not.

Pressing the button in game takes you to the Jagex store place whatever it's called. There you can select the amount of spins and the payment method. If you select card it'll have your details there already then you just need to click on the confirm button and it'll complete. That's it. Once you click that button there's no chance to back out.

So yes, it's possible for kids to put it on their parents credit cards if they're paying for their membership that way with no extra effort.
