Just adds fuel to the fire, jagex seem to be milking this game/players for all its worth till its dried up and thrown away.
I bet before this game is done we will see stuff like Level up Tombs, that auto grant 1 level only $5.

He says there were months of careful planning or something liek that. Let us hope that its not counterproductive in the end, or this only makes things worse
I'm going to laugh when this falls flat on its face.

Player 1 buys Bonds from Jagex with real money.
Player 2 buys Bonds from Player 1 with rs gp.
Typically in cash shop this means the cash shop items are sold in game higher and higher. It always drives the inflation faster than the bots do.
I don't know if Mark Gerhard is straight up lying or if his researchers just haven't looked at what goes on in the gaming industry. But based on his claim that 40-50% of players buy rs gp from websites, I think I'm leaning toward the former and it's just an argument to make it sound legitimate.

It works as a money sink because you can spend in game GP on your membership. This dumps a bunch of the GP that's being generated by bots into nothing, since it's being traded for something that isn't an in game item.
A money sink would remove the money from the game, this only transfers the money from one player to another.
My apologies, I misunderstood. I thought he was saying that you could purchase gold bonds from Jagex with GP. If that isn't the case, then I'm also confused on how this takes GP out of the market?

You buy the Bonds on their site for real-life money, and can then sell them in-game on either the Grand Exchange or to other players for Coins.
So as it stands, you are currently paying $ 5.00 to be given an in-game item that you can sell for 6-7m.
In other words, RWT is still cheaper and will still be done regularly.

It most certainly is not! That would be quite the controversy! I know it seems like that's the way they're heading but it hasn't happened quite yet heh.
Oh boy am I glad! I would have been livid if they started selling GP.
If this is just a money pit, up go the prices of rares!
