Ok so my idea is for jagex to introduce an item, the Members Pass into the game. This members pass will contain 31 days' worth of membership that will be credited to the account when used. Here, i propose that when players pay the $5 to jagex, they do not automatically get credited with the 1 month worth of membership - they use the $5 to buy these Members Passes. This may seem redundant, you may think, but I feel that this has many advantages and virtually no disadvantages; espeically since a similar idea has been implemented in an online text game that I play, and I find the system very good and useful. Firstly, this will allow people who cannot pay for members in real cash, or people whose parents are not willing to get members for them, to get members by buying these members passes from other players ingame. Will this affect jagex's revenue from members? Obviously not, as the demand will rise and more members passes will be purchased, instead leading to jagex making even more money, and players are also satisfied - win-win situation. Secondly, it solves the problem of real world trading. It is difficult to stop real world trading as the perpetrators are almost impossble to catch. "If you cant beat em, join em", the saying goes. With this option, people who want to 'buy' gp can simply buy these members passes and then sell em ingame since it will be a safe and sure trade for them. Again, Jagex benefits, instead of letting the macroers earn this money. It also serves to note that NO gp of any form is being added to the game in this way. Please feel free to voice any opinions or constructive critisms on my idea.
