Thank you and Thank you =)

I never spot-steal. And I'm F2P, so the task is somewhat difficult. The mining guild is particularly bad for people who mine what you're mining already, but I don't complain. I may be stubborn and play only on one world, but that's my choice and I'll live with all the nooblets who want to get their coal faster. :P It's just a game to me ^^"

From a F2P point of view, removing tradeable rares from the game would be horrible to us. What then would we have to work for other than skills? Many people in F2P will never become P2P, and so will never have other items to strive for with their vast amounts of money. In that case, rares are all we got to look forward to, really. Also, I disagree that all other holiday items should be given to new people because they weren't there. It's not like we're trying to be greedy and "holier-than-thou" with our items no one else can get. We were in the right place at the right time. You weren't. It's no ones fault but yours that you hadn't joined RS earlier, and that doesn't entitle you to free items. Amirite? :D

Another F2P bloggeh! Good luck with your smithing goal =P

Lol, I love the video. It almost makes me want to join. Except I'm not active. At all... Good luck with your goals anyhow =P

Yepp. Had my 19th on Feb 8th. Happy birthday to me =D Oh, and I reached 800 total too :P

Haha, thanks. Wait...what's this? A blog for my account? When did this appea- Oh snap! #-o I need to update more... BTW, I attained Crafting lvl 60 and Smithing lvl 50. Going for 50 RC at the moment :)

I'll bump your blog for ya NJE ;) Um....*Thinks of something for you to do..* How about another bank pic? =D you haven't posted a new one in AGES xD

Whoa that banner took a while for me to load =P It's uh...nice though xD And I love your mid-feb desktop screenie, especially the icons.

Really bad when someone doesn't even know what rick rolling is :P Funny though =P

Same rate as they've been doing for the last year or so or same rate as, say, 4 years ago (2-3 updates a year)?

Hopefully, it the only update that I really think F2P needs, though in order for that to equally benefit everybody eligible for a skillcape, they'll have to make it so that skillcapes cannot be purchasable in F2P, but can be worn. Basically, make skillcapes kinda like maple logs or coloured (Canfis) gloves, purchasable only in P2P, but usable in F2P. I'm not sure if that would work out. Because only a select few in members would be gaining profits, because only a select few have 99's in a skill that is F2P.

I very excited to see what improvements to F2P they'll make. Perhaps skillcapes? =D

Ummm, because this is a Rants thread where we CAN rant about why we didn't get this or don't have that...:P

Wonderful to see some changes that will be for the better. Especially for F2P. I'm quite content to see that it was officially addressed as "isn't merely a demo". That should put a sock into everyone's mouths who've been constantly defending that point. I'm also immensely happy that they actually said that money isn't their number one goal, and so they're removing the video adverts =D Amazingly, I'm surprised to see not that many threads on the RSOF complaining about F2P for something or other...

It depends on whose perspective "useful" comes from. For me, and obviously NJE, corrupt armor just isn't worth the trouble and isn't useful at all. Numerous other updates of 2008 have been vastly more important. Like the RS guild, or the bank update, or the magic interface or other numerous little updates that just improve playing quality and not add worthless armor that falls apart after a few minutes..

Congrats on 90 Mage NJE ^_^

Was it really? I didn't realize until you pointed it out. But a good debate never dies. This debate can still hold argument, so I think it's okay. Other than that, don't spam :P

I think that F2P Magic and Ranged need to be fine-tuned before Jagex even looks at F2P Melee right now.

They'd seriously have to keep a bead on the channel and quickly kill off any spamming. Other than that, it'd be a good idea to post live suggestions/feedback. Although if tons of people post too much, the J-Mod realisticly wouldn't be able to keep track of it all.

Never :P We've been getting updates out the yazoo, so why not get a little more? xD

Let's dissect this =D Okay, so you say there's be too many out there? That's laughable, cause it's like the equivalent of saying "There's too many Saradomin Rune sets out there". It's an attainable piece of equipment, anyone can have one (after some time). There really is no reason why F2P can't show off a 99 in a skill in-game. "Because we pay" isn't a good enough argument for that sort of thing (I think). I don't think F2P is a demo, because Jagex certainly never states that it's a demo, so I see no reason to think that way. It can be a full game in it's own way. Ummm, we CAN get used to not having skillcapes, we HAVE gotten used to it, I'm sure. It's just that we want them =P Aaaaand, if I read it correctly, you think that skillcapes are the reason 50% of the members buy a membership? Rofl.

Yes, exactly. That's a very creative idea and I'm sure people wouldn't complain because it would no alter the stats of your shield.

Playing since May '04, with a few breaks here and there. Wow it's been a while =P I started on my first character Torksoul, then I migrated to my current character Bloodkay.

You know, a lot of people miss a very important point. "Why can't F2P have..." doesn't necessarily mean that a members item should become F2P. It can also mean that a new object or the like can be implemented into the game that would serve a similar purpose (although in a lesser fashion) to F2P. Example? Skill capes don't have to become F2P. (And I've said this before) They could certainly implement shirts or shields that show that you have a 99. For F2P, this would probably mean lesser or no stats for that equipment piece though.
