I like that we get totally no insight about the updates of the drop tables /sarcasm. I have no clue how and if they really got better.

I wonder how that internal conversation went.
Random employee: Sir, our reports have come back. 40-50% of the population are buying gold.
Gerhard: God our community sucks.

Gerhard: How come we are not profiting off that? Get to work! NOW!!

sacred fragments used to be bankable, havent checked in a while.. its tears the ones you cannot bank

Ultimately people may buy gold from farmes to pay for membership because this way its cheaper. Jagex shot themselves in the leg imo.
Not really, someone will be paying for those bonds they are not giving away anything.
Its even better for them since they sell membership at a higher cost than today
-
It was only time until Jagex added pure uncut RWT into the game. Final nail in the coffin for me, no way I'll be renewing my membership now.
So because, as a company, Jagex is trying to combat something that has a bad influence on their game (while, of course, making an extra bit of money from it), you want to cry over it?
Honestly, that is ass-backwards.
The idea of bonds is great. I remember when i moved to the Middle East at first i had the hardest time acquiring membership because my bank card was the wrong type, we had no membership cards in stores, and i didn't have paypal back then. Something like this would help people in that situation. It's a good approach on RWT.
Please, dont be so naive.
They arent fighting anything with these, just trying to get some % of the illegal RSGP market out there knowing they will never be able to erradicate it nor compete with it.

Far, far, too soon to consider it a failure because of price drops. ATM, there are more people who want the potential GP bonds hold than want the bond benefits (membership, spins, runecoins), so supply is too great.
It might be, but this is aimed at buyers rather than sellers from my point of view and this is why the legal part of it takes a major role.
The problem I see and stated before is that they left the ratio $/RSGP to the will of the market and thus outcome of this implementation is not guaranteed.
Sure, there is a lot of supply now due to novelty, but once that wears off will someone trade with these if the ratio is half of what goldsellers offer?
They could have had control from the start but chose not to

The problem with the community is they don't understand it. They are being sugar coated by the Anti RWT/Goldfarmers debate. They think its making things nice and dandy. But no, thats not the case. It will likely only tap their profit down a tiny bit. Bots will still bot. Gold will still be sold at a much cheaper price. Jagex is making the economy swim around and gaining money from it.
This.
Goldfarmers will continue to farm, and sell at a rate lower than bond/rsgp so it stays cheaper. Who will buy bonds then? Assuming they are targeting this at ppl who RWT
It's clear from the video that they can detect gold farming and interaction between these accounts (Mod Jacmob has a very eloquent post on the bonds section of the RSOF, I suggest everyone read it) and that in the future they will start banning these accounts and removing the items/gold. I think this update was a way to provide an alternative to buying gold while not banning half their playerbase. I imagine that in a months time we will see massive ban waves hit people that continue to buy gold from farmers as well as the farmers accounts themselves.
As long as the ratios have a considerable difference they will still have to ban half the playerbase, we'll have to see how this develops..as for now I see it as a failure from Jagex end due to prices dropping to half in 1 hour?
Edit: I'd only see it succeeding on the long run if they put a fixed GP price on bonds. Lets face it, they will never be able to get rid of illegal rwt, so instead they should be providing a reasonable $/RSGP ratio through fixed-price bonds which is safe and legal. This is not the case atm and will not be for a while...
-
Surely they'd have to be a lot more to match the goldseller rate though?
Bonds dropping fast means they're working, if they settle at or very near the goldseller rate then Jagex winsAnd bonds are dropping really fast on G.E... so lol@jagex.
This.

How does the price dropping on the GE affect Jagex, theyre still getting the same real world cash for them
They will just sell the ones now for novelty, once price crashes there is no point in buying them if you are intending to buy GP for cash because the ratio will be so high no one will actually buy these to sell for gp in-game.
-
And bonds are dropping really fast on G.E... so lol@jagex.

Hello Legal RWT!
It has been due for a while. This is what SGS missed, a way to transform cash directly into RSGP without going through spins/goldfarmers. Best thing is they dont even sell cash directly, they allow you to buy cash from other people and put it as "Lets fight goldfarmers"
Brilliant.
