Wow.Thx R2PLEASENT..This is very true.Thanx for telling us

 

Who wouldv'e thought.
Where did you get this info from?
Thanks, makes sence...
ALot of sence.

 

Yeah I never knew this but this makes sense. Too bad 10 year old kids can lie and say they are 13 just to play the game. :S

 

nice r2, i never really thought about it.

 

Ya very nicely thought out reason. I know a lot of people in rl life who sold people rs gold and the kid they sold it to paid with cc. Makes a lot of sense.

 

wouldnt they just sue the place where they bought the gold from?

 

I think i am at jagex side now...lol

 

That makes a lot more sense..

 

yea this is a nice thing to know well kids are uncontrollable especially when their parents probably dont know wat jagex is when it shows up on the bill.

 

That's a great theory, I would've never thought of it that way.

 

that is true but i am soo pissed that other kids with their bad addictions have
ruined the duel arena. the duel arena was a great part of the game and now
it's wrecked. What about stakers and tanks? i go and get 40 or 70 def before the update and now they wrecked my great staker. i had a lvl 97 with 99 range and 70 def and god knows that tank ranges get owned in the wildy with
mage and melee so i waste my time making a tank and a lot of gp and little 10 year olds go and buy gp and wreck it and to top it off there trying to make
up for by adding summoning.

jagex you fail at this update.

 

wow, very true Ic you gave a lot of thought into that uh?

 

btw u do have a point R2

 

well then stupid kids shouldnt use the duel arena , fuck why do we have to pay for this becuase little 10 year olds cant fucking think ?

*EDIT**

when you register an acct you put in your age , duel arena should be allowed to people who put their age as the 18 - 24 age, this will COMPLETELY avoid lawsuits.

 

an interesting theory.

 

Meh good move lulz, but anyway we all know Jagex owns Gold4Rs so they can try and crack down on RWT.

 

thats a great summer...good write up!

 

A very good read, and quite explainable.

Also you could use the 'two bird with one stone' routine.

Thanks for the update

 

Here's where your argument is flawed. Jagex does lose $ by removing the arena -- they are just as aware as you and I that many P2P'ers play RS purely to stake. They will be losing a significant amount of their paying customers to this update, so it is obviously not about money. Business-wise, Real World Trading is a very complicated matter, on one hand there are players who dislike the RWT'ers, and you want to please them. On the other hand, there are players who are always going to want to use their real money to progress their character, and if that is made impossible on RS, they will simply move onto another game. So it's best to find balance.

Sure, Jagex probably doesn't like the idea that RWT'ers are making money on their game, without even giving them a cut. But that's been true for years. I agree that they are happy to remove one of the numerous trade methods, but it is certainly not enough in itself to justify the removal of perhaps the most popular aspect of Runescape Members. This update runs much deeper than that.
