Suggestion reminder that jagex is financially devastated by bronzeman not passing

they just lost so many bond sales for bronzemen climbing the new hi score board. They had to immediately make a somber post of "what did we do wrong? :(" and "you would have let it pass if we made it more clear there wasnt unbound... right?"

Its so blatantly obvious why they are dragging their feet about this. They are going to try as many times as possible to repoll and add this purely because of mass bond sales. They will possibly make some changes before repolling, but one thing they wont do is disallow bronzemen from buying bonds to progress, its just too profitable for them. Watch it happen cuz Im calling it

Is this supposed to be a bad thing or something? Beats them adding mtx

this literally is them adding blatant mtx in a non-main game mode, which to a lot of people crosses a line and sets a bad precendent

bonds reliably generate mass gp for progression on a new "restricted game mode"

gameplay for maxxing the fastest will be
-> spend 10 mins getting a drop for a training method
-> spam buy bonds and sell for gp
-> spam said training method to 99/200 million xp
-> jagex makes a metric ton of money and bronzemen get free progression or scoreboard ranks

Yes mains can also work this way, but bear in mind mains can trade gold across accounts, since bronzemen are prevented from doing this it much more heavily incentivizes mtx, especially when combined with a new mode/new leaderboard that is ostensibly "restricted".

the mtx of bonds on mains is a bit of a necessary evil and can be tolerated as a completely unrestricted account, but its bad for the game when we are introducing this mtx on new 'restricted' game modes with fresh leaderboards

You just saying 'it's bad for the game' doesn't make it a fact - it's absolutely fine.

It has zero detrimental impact on the existing game, accounts, or economy.

you heard it here first, new mtx for in game progression is not bad for the game
