I believe this is a very smart update. I'm not being bias, but let's look at reality here. One way or another, there will always be a way that people would RWT, even if Jagex does have the most up-to-date technology to stop RWTing. Trade limits have been introduced in the past, but majority of players just went against it. I believe Jagex has come to realize this.

"If we can't beat it, why not go with the flow?" Jagex followed this, but in their own, special way. They've come to the conclusion that it's best to just make it available to every player, in the context of allowing them to have the freedom of choice to BUY RSGP/Membership and vice versa, without having to break the rules or make a lot of people unhappy.

From my point of perspective, some people are just missing the point and tend to complain about bonds because they say it gives certain people the unfair advantage to not afford some things, or its just a 'shortcut' to getting some quick rsgp.

This may be the case, but if you take a look at behind the scenes, a massive amount of the current RuneScape community WAS already RWTing, therefore breaking the rules. So Jagex decided to open up something to the players which allows them to still use this method, without having to break the rules, yet open to everyone if they wish to do so.

If you all think about it guys, would you rather be playing a game with cheaters and rule-breakers, or a stable community that all follow the right path?

I personally see no issue with it. It's optional for someone to still make money through PVP/PVM/Merching or whatever you do to make your money, but then the people which wish to take a shortcut (which they may have been doing before through illegal websites), do it now with the approval of Jagex through this new system.
