"Exchange rates" for Runescape (Jagex thinks)

[Ping]

http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/technology/8386003.stm

Read it carefully.

Once hi-tech thieves have these credentials they plunder the accounts, strip characters of their items and sell off the rare virtual goods for Runescape gold. This virtual money can be traded to others in-game or sold for real world cash.

Current underground exchange rates suggest that 2m Runescape gold costs about £6 ($10).

"We have pinned down and identified the handful of ring leaders and we are going after them with both barrels," Mark Gerhard, chief executive of Jagex told BBC News.

Lol, thats like 5$ Per Mill LOL.

Wow, he doesn't even know about his own game, you'd think after all these years they'd know the underground prices for their own currencies.

I want 200k for 1$, please. Oh no, wait, I can make that in 1 hour

 

[Zangrefia]

That's ridiculous. That either shows that they don't browse underground forums, or they're lying to public.

Hmm

Probably to discourage buying gold, because if they say it's 1m = 1$ then people will be liek AMG I CAN BUY 10m FOR 10$ THATS SO CHEAP!!!!!!

If they see 1m = 5$

Then people will be discouraged buying it.

 

[Davidx]

Yeah good fight.. $5/m.. they really need to learn to browse the damn internet.

 

[Crucifix]

Yeah i see now

 

[Singed]

I couldn't help laughing.. I reckon it's because they just wanted to over dramatise it and/or like rebel said, to discourage the sales of rwt gp.

 

[Crust]

Rofl, I wonder how they caught that guy. You'd think he'd be alot smarter and use a vpn and proxys....
