I just read that update. Seems to me like they will be making a lot more than spending. If so, they are so fucking patheticly money hungry, it makes me puke.

I knew that you wouldn't change, but I bit my tongue and swore,
Resigned myself to carry on despite you.
But you would not match my stride and cried,
"Foul! Foul! How could you expect me to care about somebody else?"
And after all, who would expect anything else from you?

Most people already pay for members anyway, so they are automatically being entered for a chance to win $1,000.

The only extra money they will be making is from new subscribers, which for the small subscription fee + all the new bonus content you get and a chance at $1,000, is a fine tradeoff.

This seems pretty fair to us, the consumer, and a really good business strategy.

I mean, they just try to like hide the idea, making it seem like they are giving back to the players when in back of their heads they are actually carving for more money. They make it seem other way than it is

If you hadn't signed up for members yet and you were thinking about doing it, which of these would cause you to go ahead and do it?

A. Nothing changes, you can still get members and get all the bonus content as usual.

B. Jagex announces a chance to win $1,000 for everyday you are a member, and you also get the bonus content as usual.

C. Jagex announces that all they care about is your money, they don't care about you as a consumer or your rights and just want to roll in a pile of your dough. Oh and you get the bonus content as usual.

Moses, Don't take this personally but i think you don't understand noting about business. Runescape is a company just like any other and they want to make money. Who cares if they Raffle out 10,000. They are trying to make more money just like any other company out there. They have expenses like paying for their studio hiring graphic artists etc that kind of bullshit. Does it matter what they do, All that money goes back into runescape and making the game better. I mean look how many f2p players are just playing for free, jagex got to pay for all of that too. But games like warcraft they don't have f2p its all p2p. They need money to run runscape. I'm sure if your parents own a company they would tell you the same thing. Its near the holidays so every company out there eis advertising and everything. And BTW once you start making a lot of money you don't want to stop it gets into your blood and you just want to make more and more.
Again don't take this as a offense I'm just trying to help your explain.

Moses I dont think it works that way, atleast not in my head..

It's alot like lottery, and when the "max" price is ONLY 1k, who would pay membs just for THAT?

I know I wouldn't, but if the winning price hits me, it's ok, I don't complain, but high hopes on a 1k lmfao irl.

Get real.

That's what a company is used to do. Since Jagex isn't a non-profit company they better make more money than they spend.
And since it isn't provided by money from the government, jagex will go broke if they don't make more money than they spend.

basic economics..
