i totally agree with everything you're saying dude. It makes perfect since I believe that JAGeX should seriously consider at least some part of what you are saying here. I'm lvl 91, f2p, and im wearing the same crap as a lvl 55 walking by me. The only thing i can do to distungish me from the noobs is buy god armour which is the same def bounuses. So yeah, you make perfect since and im totally with you.
