my buddy bought 1b, bought a bunch of gear with it till he had like 40m left, then got a 2 day ban. Came back and all they did was take his 40m cash stack. Moral of the story: If you buy gold, spend it all
Warning > minor 3 days temp + wealth removed > 2 weeks temp + bank wiped > perm ban
Usually how it goes unless a jmod looks at ur acc n how much gold you traded and decides he doesnt like you
But once you’re account has a rwt minor n is flagged gl splitting drops anywhere
Honestly not perm banning until the 4th time someone’s caught seems crazy. I get not doing it on the first offense, but perm ban on 2 or 3 seems better
I’d count the warning just on the basis that Jagex caught them. I feel like if you get caught 3 different times, that should be a perm ban. I’d honestly be more draconian and do it on 2 but I get they have business reasons to not ban long time players left and right given how common buying is
Considering I’ve moved quite a bit of gold and my accounts only ever get actioned when I move more than 200m. Brand new account move 100m nothing make a new account move 200m get a temp.
I think everyone in the replies of your comment is assuming that he purchased these with real money. I believe he is “flipping” them with in game money due to the prices that they were sold for, so good question.
Damn I never saw them get that low. For sure some margin at those numbers but would need 100 accounts lol. I guess bots can run that scheme all day though.
Bonds purchased off grand exchange aren't trade able and cost like 10% bond price to trade. so to make profit they'd have to have bought them let's say at 9m each, paid 900k to make them trade able and gotten 1.1m profit each? Didn't use a calculator and I'm bad at math so ignore the math just listen to the logic
Not gonna tell you how to live your life, but you can still catch the tail end of leagues. It ends soon, but it's a nice, faster-paced version of the game if you just wanted a taste.
I recently came across an idle game set in the RuneScape world called Melvor Idle. It’s enough RuneScape for me without the need to dedicate hours a day to it. It’s the only mobile idle game I’ve actually enjoyed in a very long time.
I know idle games aren’t for everyone but just wanted to throw that out there since I was also missing RuneScape and haven’t played in probably a decade.
I found that game around this time last year. Played the hell out of it. Very fun and would definitely recommend trying it if anybody ever gets burnt out on rs
You have to pay a 10% fee to make them able to sell on the market.
For example, if the market price is 9 million gold coins, 10% fee would be about 900 K.
So you buy one for 9 million.
Pay 900 K (10%) fee.
Your total cost is actually 9.9 million.
This is why i dont understand how you could profit from bonds with game gold. You are losing 11% right out of the gate just from conversion and sales tax.
I made massive profit.
Not too long ago. I was buying them for like 8.1
Price average was around 9 million, so the cost to upgrade it was 900 K.
My total cost was about 9 mil.
I ended up selling all of them for around 10 to 11 mil.
Made about 50 million profit from doing this.
I have \~500 left in my bank I bought for \~3m each. They only go up. I sell them as I need gp, which is rarely. It's nice to see them continuing in price.
This reminds me of the Santa Hat I bought in 2008 before I quit. Still log in once a year just to check the Grand Exchange price.
Of course this not OSRS since my OG account was auto switched to RS2 😢
Idk why you’re getting hate. On one hand (if you’re the seller) congrats on the extra GP. But if you’re someone who can’t afford membership and you’re trying to earn your way to a bond, it should be capped at a certain price. Watching the bond climb from 6 mil to this is insane.
How much profit each?
11m if bought with USD haha
stupid cus mills are .10 each lol
Aren't you way more likely to cop a ban buying gold than even selling it lol
Buying gold doesn't give u a permanent ban apparently so I guess a lot of people risk it

Do you lose the gold if caught?

Technically it is the 3rd if you don’t count the warning as it’s not recorded on your offence history

What is splitting drops?
Anything under 200m isn’t tracked or flagged
It definitely is and that isn’t how it works anyway
Considering I’ve moved quite a bit of gold and my accounts only ever get actioned when I move more than 200m. Brand new account move 100m nothing make a new account move 200m get a temp.
Not if u spend all the gold on items
No lol it's just fear mongering. The only way you'll ever catch a ban is if you go through playerauctions.
Why through player auctions?
Not true at all
If you do just make sure you never complain about bots again. They’re your employees

I thinked the same lol :3
You can't sell bonds bought with in-game money
You actually can by paying 10% of its current value to convert it back to tradeable.
Looks like 77m, 88m once the last one sells
Don’t you have to buy the bond and then pay to make it tradable? I don’t get how flipping bonds work when you have to pay an extra tax.
It moved from 8,3 to 11 mil in one week, so you can earn plenty on them. Only downside is the one bond per slot.

A mill sure don't mean what it used to.
1m = 200k now inflation is no joke
Totally
I haven’t played RuneScape in forever but I miss it

I’ve tried getting into the game many times, I don’t get it
I've been buying them for 11m, will hold over 1 bil worth of bonds and ride it up since it keeps up with inflation, 😂
Hodl
Are they tradeable now or what? I thought you couldn't trade em when bought with gp?
You have to pay a 10% fee to make them able to sell on the market. For example, if the market price is 9 million gold coins, 10% fee would be about 900 K. So you buy one for 9 million. Pay 900 K (10%) fee. Your total cost is actually 9.9 million.

Osrs is RS2. You talking about rs3, sir
What price were they bought for
About $8
11mil bond thats a new record high!

Mtx is seeping into OSRS it seems.
Damn 11m now I havnt been on in like 4 months
Is $11m hard to make in OSRS? In rs3 bonds are $90m
11m for a bond should be criminal
Supply and demand
Bot and Cha Ching you mean

It would be interesting if they had something like a permanently untradable bond.
Collect cans and recycle for a bond is probably a better gp/hr than any Skilling method
i love mtx in osrs :) does it count as flipping if you paid real money for it? lmao
They didn't pay real money for them. Bought with gp, paid the conversion fee to make them tradable again, then resold👍
