Is selling money making guides allowed, as in a method + script?

I know some stuff is iffy and I didn't see anything in the rules.

Thanks

According to this: http://villavu.com/forum/showthread.php?t=50228
It's not allowed, but there has been some sales going on where Markus has posted in without closing the topic, so I'm not really sure what the rules are anymore

your NOT allowed to sell SCRIPTS, but you are allowed to sell guides

when i asked markus it was allowed, i do not know why it says no guides in the main rules?

all guides must be verified by me or markus

But, you might be able to sell the guide, and offer the script as a bonus to the guide purchase. :).

Why would you be allowed to do that?

Couldn't people then just start selling like mining guides and add a mining script as a bonus?

That's just like selling a penny on ebay that comes with a free runescape account..

It's more about the method and the script is an accessory to not legitting it.

I can do the method by itself with the script public.

Well, now your talking about selling the guide alone then. But, if you release the script publicly, there will be no need for anyone to buy the guide from you.

I see Coh3ns point on the selling the penny with free account, but I see no other way really. You are selling the guide, and mentioning that you already have a script made for it that you will give to them once they purchase the guide. This is cutting it close to the line though, and I don't have any authority to say one way or the other. May not be solved without PM to Markus

JAD used to sell his money-making guide with multiple scripts attached to it.

I think this cause should be allowed. He's mainly selling a guide to help and make money. The script is just an automated way to execute the guide, but the guide/method is the keypoint of what he's selling.
