Everything rose in price. That's inflation. A RS gold coin is worth less than it used to be. But because everything is more expensive now it doesn't matter. Skills may have gotten more expensive even with taking inflation into account but that's a continuation of a trend that started the moment skill capes were introduced. People want their capes and they're willing to pay for them.

 

EDIT/ The only people who are annoyed by inflation are those who accumulated a decent cashpile before the PVP update and now see it become worth less every day. Everyone else who whines just don't get the concept of inflation.

 

Not everything rose in price. Monster drops are still the same. If it was everything, then lvl 2 man should dropping much more than the paltry 3-25gp it has dropped since it first came into the game. THAT is what is causing problems. The mass inflation is what is making that utterly useless. And this is just one example.

 

Another example is the price of Construction, which is pretty much the same as it was since it was introduced back in May 2006. The costs for the rooms and magical stones and such was supposed to work as a money sink. However, there is MUCH MUCH more money in the game now than there was back in 2006, yet those prices are still the same.

 

There are many more examples of the game where the sheer amount of money has ruined lots of aspects of the game.

A quick google search says that 1m gp now costs just $1.80. My guess is that all the RWTers do now is just gain EP on your char for Statues til you get the money you paid for.

 

Your guess is wrong, sorry.

RWTers are very crafty. Why do you think Onyx is 2.7m now? It was used to RWT with.

13,337 posts aswell, very naice.

 

What are you talking about? I distinctly remember furys being 3m+ in world 2 before december 2007. I'll admit some people are very clever and use that gift for bad, but a lot of the rwting site DO just trick 24/7 on your account until they aquire the asked amount of gp. Also to your point about using onyx's for rwting, I believe that was dragonstones, and that method was known by the majority of runescape before it was removed.

 

he's talking about Tokkul... uncut onyx coosts 2700000 tokkul now.

Wow, please bother to read my whole post and not just the first sentence, before quoting me. Anyway The tokkul thing was for dragonstones, and was fixed awhile ago. The recent shop update is what bumped up the onyx price. There was no way to use onyx to rwt.

Um... simple google search "use onyx to rwt" finds

 

RWT method - 8-10 mil a hour

Okay, you need:

 

1.7M on the account that is receiving the money & Karamja gloves 1

 

You have to go to the Grand Exchange and buy Obsidian Maces, Obsidian Swords, Obsidian Mauls and Obsidian Staffs.

 

Go to the Tzhaar place and sell them to the shops for tokkuls, you will need 260,000 Tokkul.

 

When you have 260,000 Tokkul, buy an Onyx from the Tzhaar shop.

 

Sell the Onyx to the account that is giving money for 2.5M

 

This means you spent 1.7M in order to buy the items, but received 2.5M

 

(The account with the onyx would have to get Crafting assist request and craft the Onyx into a Fury which is worth about the same as you spent to buy the Onyx)

 

This means you transfered about 800k right there

 

You're able to do this 10+ times an hour

 

That means 8M+ an hour

 

(Note: Do not try this method with under 1.7M on the receiver and 2.5M on the giver, you will not be able to transfer.)

 

Happy transfering!

 

Note to Mods: This does not work anymore, and I do not advocate RWT.

 

Yes, you could use this same method for dragonstones, but this method was faster.

Ahh I see

75king does not include credit card fraud, unless you happen to be as thick as the nearest brick wall and twice as ugly.

I want Jagex to restore the pure ess back to regular

 

I despise the 76kers and rwt'ers and merch clans

 

you shouldn't abuse a system to get rich

 

it's a freakin game, play fair and have fun
