Jonanananas Posted April 2, 2012 Share Posted April 2, 2012 The awkward moment when Jagex realizes they just provided a loophole for goldfarmers to use when jagex tries to sue them. Jagex states something along the lines of "Trading rs items for real cash is against the rules." Yet that is exactly what they're doing. All a goldfarming company would have to do is provide evidence of the rule, jagex breaking that themselves and boom, case is over.Jagex arent providing any items though. They are giving access to a part of the game called "squeel of fortune". Really don't want to defend Jagex on this issue but they are not directly offering items for irl money any more than p2p gives access to more features for money. It's a game that's *guaranteed* to give items though. They are doing RWT - but they can do that all they want, there is no reason they can't as long as they abide by the laws.

Riptide Mage Posted April 2, 2012 Share Posted April 2, 2012 So they removed in-game gambling (dice, horses etc) because it was bad but have now just implemented REAL LIFE GAMBLING! Bloody hell. Please tell me this is April fools... Apparently it doesn't count as gambling in a real life sense because you cannot win anything of real world value.... In my town we have a half dozen "Internet Sweepstakes" establishments that work similar to this. Gambling is illegal in my state but these get around it, this is how: -Everyone is given 100 free credits a day-Or you can buy 100 credits for $1 -You swipe your card into a "computer" that has an interface that looks an awful lot like a slot machine-You hit the spin button-You win "bonus credits" determined by what the wheels land on -"Bonus credits" can then be exchanged for cash at the same 100:1 exchange rate Sound familiar? It's "not gambling" because there are guaranteed odds of winning each prize and you aren't using cash for the "sweepstakes". A few of my friends work there so I'll go and hang out every so often (free food / soda doesn't hurt), and it is beyond sad to see people spending their paychecks as soon as they get it on this "not gambling." This is Jagex sliding way down the slippery slope they started with loyalty rewards and sliding right into a dark back alley. It's not gambling though as you cannot lose while spinning on the Squeal including the fact that you cannot win real life monetary value from the Squeal either (no membership or IRL money is offered as a prize). Timbo also completely contradicts [qfc]254-255-159-63608827[/qfc] Each week for 4 weeks, we are holding a prize draw for all of those that post here while wearing one of the new skull tattoos!

Logdotzip Posted April 2, 2012 Author Share Posted April 2, 2012 haha like, i might literally buy $100 in spins, the time it'd take me to get back the $100 would be less than the time it would take me to legitimately get the RC experience by training RC so this is what Runescape has become my youtube Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maximusa Posted April 2, 2012 Share Posted April 2, 2012 Um besides the complete disgusting behaviour on jagex part and finally began selling xp for real money. As that is what this is. You can efficiently buy xp now by the common and frequent lamps you get. Besides that. It appears far too easy for someone who manages to get onto an account, by flawed security on jagex part, to get straight to that page and begin buying that stuff. This is pretty concerning.. However I cant personally test it as I am worried I might myself end up buying something I dont want if it is automatic like that. From what mentioned in this thread they need to add some security to this as this is real money.

If thats the case then my main concern is over with. Though still disgusting for the games sake atleast they not completely stupid for rl money reasons. (Its hard to know if they are or not. I know I dont trust jagex as a company with such things. An automatic button = more money for them. Kiddies use their parents cards and such..)
