I am P2P, but I disagree with any free to play member having forum access. You can have f2p access with 30m exp. This is reasonable as otherwise you could get gold farming companies advertising on the forums and people making multiple accounts to manipulate others on the forums. I think that to have access as f2p you need to have atleast played the game for a bit and contribute.

I think there are alot of good mods that are helpfull. I have a friend who is one and he hardly talks unless asked. He does do his job though by reporting players who break the rules. On the other hand I have also seen alot of corrupt mods who advertise price manipulation clans, in turn causing others to lose their money. Heck, I've even seen a mod who was the owner of one. I must also agree that this game is now filled with alot of children who are anywhere from the age of 8-12 years old. Most would die for modship because it makes them feel empowered. To be honest, when I first joined I wanted to be a mod just to have the crown, but at this point (6 years later) I don't really care. Although...I would like to put a stop to the manipulation clans as they have become a problem. Also, forum mods are necessarry mods as jagex is really busy and alot of stuff needs to be locked on the forums, so I find forum mods are of great help. Also they don't get an in-game status symbol so I think they are always "better," mods or if you will.
