I'm not saying that we should get all sorts of new stuff, just something to show for our hard work. If it isn't even a skillcape that would be fine. Its just that a lot of us have (or almost have) a 99 skill and we would really like something to show other people that we have it.

When I first started out playing runescape (April 2004), I thought it was the greatest thing in the world. I had never been a mini-clipper and I never will be. I learned about the game through friends at school, and I never stopped bugging them about helping me out, the best way to make gold fast, and where everything was. Since then, I've grown in maturity and discipline, and I realize that there are other things to life besides Runscape. I've quit and told myself I'm never going to play again a dozen times by now, tried to sell my account once or twice, and have become addicted over and over again. I've seen hundreds of updates, good, bad, and ones that didn't affect me at all. I was a member from last August to June (stopped for the summer). And now I am the extremely proud owner of a lvl80 account (don't care what people say) and I'm on the track to 99 wc. However, I still miss the excitement there was in the beginning. The euuphoria there was at trying something different. I don't ask people for handouts anymore and I know where everything is. I know exactly what I'm doing and I take every update in stride. But the game is somehow different than when I began. It's not as wondrous as it used to be. There was just some unexplained feeling there was when I first started RS that i'll never get back. Now Lets Here Some Thoughts!!!!!!!!! :thumbsup:

I don't see why you have to disagree with the idea of f2p skillcapes just because you're a member. If the f2p version of the game was created just as a demo, then why do we have quests, pking, the ability to have some treasure trail items etc. Jagex is still making updates to the free version of the game, so they obviously don't want to lose people taking a serious intrest in the game, even if they are free players.

Well, I'd have to say yes. I was a member for a while, but let my subscription run out for the summer. And members get a lot more than a couple of fancy cpes for $5 a month. There have been a lot of recent updates to the f2p systems, so obviously Jagex hasn't put us out of their thoughts. If the creaters of the game give an ounce of thought to the people who don't pay to keep the game alive, I think the rest of us can.
