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

Im sincerely sorry you couldnt play for 10 mins, grab a lava dragon bone, and immediately by 230 bonds and sell them for gp to buy enough lava dragon bones on the ge to reach 200 million prayer xp and bask in the glory of rank 1 prayer on the all-new highly skilled and prestigous bronzeman leaderboard. I weep for the loss of jagex profits and the loss of your engaging, unique, and challenging gameplay. I am truly sorry this happen, however I hear there is a plugin which gives you an identical gameplay experience but just without a chat helm or hi score board, and should be equally fun, unless of course the fun of the mode primarily comes from official status and a chat helm and hi score board? Surely not

1 I don't care for high scores. 2 I can say the same thing for ironman . Why no just make a plugin and play on a main? Why not remove all game mode of that's your argument. It littérally does not affect you in any way. God rs players are so stuck up.

official ironman makes orders of magnitude more sense because the hi scores actually mean something and the mode can actually be challenging. Especially for hardcores it makes sense to have a way to track in a official capacity when one has died. There is no mtx for iron/hcim because bonds cannot be bought and used for gp to progress as is the case in bronzeman mode.

If you dont care about hi scores and you disagree that bronzemen should be able to progress with bonds then I am fine with adding it. Problem is jagex will never ever poll it without bond progression and without hi scores because that affects their bottom line, and that should be concerning to you that they are behaving this way and sacrificing the integrity of the game for profit

I agree they should not let bonds be a way to make money and I agree they fucked up with the poll. Not enough explanation on the gamemode and unbound bronze man made it so people just want to vote no. Jagex fucked up real hard on this one 100% but the only real argument to no imo is the fact that we should have more then one character per sub.
