      Jagex gets to run the sand casino scot free because UK regulation of online gambling is horrible when it's obfuscated by video games and virtual currency. More people need to push for online gambling in video games like the sand casino (and RS3's treasure hunter) to be heavily regulated or banned by the UK government. The way it is right now, Jagex and similar companies are taking money from the young and vulnerable to feed not just themselves but immoral, sociopathic criminals too. Wouldn't surprise me if organized crime rings had a major stake in things like the Duel Arena too.

    • @SikGamer70
      @SikGamer70 3 года назад +16

      If you really want to make a change, contact the UK Gambling Commission and inform them of what's really going on in the underground market of OSRS. Don't hide any secrets from them. Maybe start a petition, or boost other petitions against this kind of gambling. Talk to your local MPs about this.
      The only way to stop this is to make it illegal. Jagex has absolutely zero financial incentive to stop what's happening in the Duel arena, or to stop their predatory MTX behaviors on RS3.

      Kemp i love you, and what youre trying to do here (I think) is essentially investigative journalism which is awesome, respectable and probably necessary. But you're presenting what you've found as a sensationalized conspiracy that makes it extremely hard to take seriously. If you are trying to publish a piece of investigative journalism, you gotta know that your presentation is fundamentally undermining what youre trying to achieve.

    One thing for certain in life is, if there exists a way for people in positions of power to get over on someone, they will. Not every person, but a percentage always will. This includes every area of life. The temptation for easy money is too great for everyone to resist. Many people operate with integrity in phases. They do something kind and then allow themselves a free ticket to do something unethical. If it's possible for the abuse of a system, someone will. But remember that this is countered by people who live with actual integrity. It's vital that they are there. So when you know something like this is happening, and it bothers you, be sure to act accordingly, it's serves the greater good and keeps things in balance. In the end operating with a lack of integrity is not only a risk and the rewards temporary, the path it leads is almost always regretful, because the majority are looking for you and in this way karma is served.

    I recently started an ironman account to avoid everything mentioned in this video and it's given me a new lease on life as far as playing RuneScape goes. The feeling can only be compared to when I first made my account in 2007 and got to experience the game for the first time again. I'd highly recommend trying ironman mode if you're reading this. Yes it's slow and tedious but it makes you learn more about the game and enjoy it much deeper. Look up Oziris Ironman guide.

      I mean it makes sense. No one is working in a tech company without being somewhat tech savvy. Everyone would know that if you were to abuse mod privilages, it could easily be electronically traced back to the account causing the abuse. Hence, if you wanted to abuse mod privilages, you wouldn't use your own account. Also, if it became wide spread news that mods were abusing their position, jagex would most likely lose consumer trust, and so their stock would fall. It benefits jagex immensely to point a finger at the obvious culprit (scapegoat), than spend months trying to find the actual "criminal", if it would even be possible to find them. Resources, time, and not a guaranteed positive outcome? Or pointing the finger, firing an employee, and moving on.
      I'm not trying to determine what's true or false, merely pointing out that it could be reasonable that the employee was framed.

      Because they need a gridlock in the system to fool players about how much gp is in the game. Imagine if a mod just spawns a trill every week but no one sees bots. Also the bots bring down the prices of certain goods making gp more valuable

Lol if they're the main source of botting, then they would control the supply and demand aspect. They wouldn't let gp crash to $.45/m like it has. It wouldn't be in their best interest. And like I said they could spawn recourses to bring down the prices as well. People just try to make a conspiracy theory out of everything.

    This also is a good representation of how the real world is like.. Since there are alot of players on runescape, you could estimate 30-40k id say? Which scientifically spoken is a good sample of the opinion of the people, so basically runescape is a confirmation of the fact that the real world is also as corrupt as the runescape world is... And with groups of scammers, botters, rigged gambling services, lurers etc.... Its safe to say that the real world is basically nothing better...
    Great video man! Gave me some good insights in what i already know, there are so many sides to this game.. The corruption goes deep :/

While on the other hand in this Runescape (sorry for typing "this Runescape", I'm seeing this game for the first time and don't know if I'm referring to it correctly) it's all about the other players.

    I did some digging into RWT websites and lots follow a similar pattern to money laundering operations.
    Most are incorporated as a LLP based from a remote office in Scotland. The partners are usually two LLCs incorporated in Delaware or Wisconsin.
    This loophole keeps the accounts from the UK company private, which masks earnings. The US based LLCs are effectively anonymous. No doubt funds being piped into a Seychelles bank account or similar. Probably further shell companies up the chain, but the trail goes cold here.
    Furthermore, the income taxes from both the UK and US companies are effectively zero. The taxes should be incurred in the country where the director is resident, so this exists to protect what is akin to double international taxation. The RWTers exploit this to avoid tax.

    Imagine if they just deleted the DA people might actually have to play the game legit and it would remove so much RWT.
    EDIT: The end of the video sums up how I feel about this game, updates come way to late a prime example is how the economy was hurt for so long by revs and they finally are addressing it now when its way to late.

      The thing is that i love the way that duel arena is taking money out of the community. If not duel arena they might just change the tax to the grand exchange.

      @@demonvictim Or, instead of taxing the GE they could up the Duel Arena tax to something like 30%. Would reduce RWT while still keeping the gold sink in game

      @@demonvictim I would gladly pay a GE tax if it meant the duel arena was deleted. It's nothing but a toxic cesspool of scammers and RWTers. The stake tax is the only positive thing to come from it but it should be much harsher. It might have removed trillions of GP but I'm certain more gold got RWTed than GP left the game.
