kuhasa Posted July 4, 2007 Share Posted July 4, 2007 This is not a question about deserve or not we deserve? yes we will win? not Jagex could acctually do SC be f2p as well p2p the problem:Jagex THINK that making the capes f2p lots of members will stop paying BUT why would members stop paying, if they STILL have better armors, more bank space, LOADS of more benefits and other stuff, f2ps have lots of work, not saying that p2ps dont but try to get 80 wc only in willows in draynor, with that loads of wcers, then p2ps would be able to say that we dont deserve then My stats Quited RuneScape-17 July 2007, Still fighting for f2p rights Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phiagre Posted July 10, 2007 Share Posted July 10, 2007 1 word="no!" dunno why, but thats why we pay 5$ per month =p yes, but would it really make people to become f2p just because of capes? the only reason you pay the 5$ is because of all the benifits, would you stop paying just for the cape that becomes f2p? ? Makes no sense... Take the Magic: The Gathering 'What Color Are You?' Quiz.The logic of people here at tip.it is just so great. The whole idea of a glitch is that it's not your fault, but hey, we'll just say it's your fault anyway. :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phiagre Posted July 10, 2007 Share Posted July 10, 2007 yeah, its harder in f2p but the stupid $5 rule...... Do you seriously think that Jagex put in the "$5 rule" just to make the game harder? I've noticed, with a few exceptions, that F2P players generally don't understand basic life skills, namely "money" and "spelling."Are you honestly saying that a greater percent of members understand money and spelling? Money, maybe, but chances are that most have their memberships paid by parents. Spelling is a blatant lie. Of the members I see, 80% of them have no intention of spelling things correctly. F2P shouldn't get any skillcapes. Sure, you say "but you members get tons of updates!" like you're being discriminated against. F2Pers are, and never will be happy with the updates that they get for free. Give them an inch, and they'll take a mile.Jagex can do what they wish with their game. If they want F2P to have skill capes, they can give them to them. They have made it clear that they don't, however. But I still think we should get an emote-only version at the very least. Firstly, I pay for my own membership, always have. I also almost always spell well, even in-game... What do you mean at the end? They get just the emote?

They get just the emote?I did not say every member has theirs paid by their parents, nor did I say they all have poor spelling. You must be one of the exceptions. And I mean that if F2P got the capes, they could make them without stats, so only the emote. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest ShadowClawe Posted July 12, 2007 Share Posted July 12, 2007 From another thread: Surprisingly, even though I'm F2P, I do not support this idea. Although it takes more effort for F2P to get 99 in a skill, F2P having skillcapes would completely ruin RuneScape. You would see waaaay too many skillcapes, probably 1 in 10 people would have them. Plus, with all those autoers that I randomly look up, and they have 99 woodcutting, the autoer boss would add skillcapes to those accounts, and TONS of autoers would have skillcapes. Plus, it ruins the dignity of everyone who currently has skillcapes. Right now, sometimes people say, "Nice skillcape!" to people to have them. But if skillcapes become F2P, no one would even notice the achivements anybody has attained, because they would be so common. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But if skillcapes become F2P, no one would even notice the achivements anybody has attained, because they would be so common. I disagree with a lot of the points you make. 1) I am an avid woodcutter and in all my time woodcutting I have seen only ONE autoer with 99 woodcut. I reported him and he was banned the next day. (Even if an auto had 99 skill, they would be wasting 99k to buy the cape since they will just lose that upon being banned, therefore I believe they would not even buy one) 2)There is really not that many non-members with a 99 skill. Enough to make adding them worthwhile, but not to the point where you will see them all the time. They would be un-common. 3)If non-members getting some recognition for a difficult achievement such as a 99 skill ruins the game for you, then I don't know what to say aside from the fact that it is sad and I am sorry to hear you feel that way.

jemathonical Posted July 14, 2007 Share Posted July 14, 2007 F2P work harder for a 99 in a skill, we deserve something to recognise our achievements. Maybe not capes like all the members have, but maybe some boots or special gloves that can do smaller emote things or something. I think these items would earn more respect than an achievement cape because they are recognisable as F2P only. ^Sir Jem 05-The Bunny Drinking Blog?^ Click it!

Besides, they are made to make money. Why would they waste money just on a stupid cape? Macroers won't have any need for it at all. They're purpose it to do one thing only. That is "continue to gather resources". Also, they are in fact NOT common. It is harder for F2P to get a skill cape because of the small amount of experience we get per item. In fact, skillcapes are more common in members than non-members. So it won't make much a difference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1canadian1 Posted July 14, 2007 Share Posted July 14, 2007 Who's fault is it that members don't have too work harder for their 99 skill then f2p does. IT'S F2P PLAYERS FAULT THAT THEY DIDNT PAY THE SPARE CHANGE OF 5 DOLLARS! Either pay 5 bucks for a game or buy a lunch that lasts you 15 minutes at Mcdonalds.

Also, do you honestly think that 1 in every 10 people in f2p have 99s? Maybe like 1 in 500 or something. I engineered this thread with precise variables that I know would cause lul-worthy flames.

rune1313 Posted July 17, 2007 Share Posted July 17, 2007 personally if you get to 99 i mean you will be noticed if your smithing. but other skills like fishing are hard to know. i think that the fact that if you can get into the high scores with 99 is good enough to me. though at least certain skills you should be able to get skill capes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kuhasa Posted July 17, 2007 Share Posted July 17, 2007 2 things to say 1> the capes-they are pretty, means that you play for more than 1-2 months- but they are only a little addictional for p2ps, check this out p2p=Bank Space, Mini-Games, Dragon Itens, etc... f2p=Stronghold of security, itens up to rune, what else? so even if capes become f2ps won't affect the p2ps (only if they are dumb enough to think that the capes are the things that most worth) 2>we OF COURSE deserve them (as explained in iten 1) but also the most will get fishing or cooking, cuz they are the easiests (I say that cuz I got 15 lvls of fishing in 3-4 hours) so: Will be boring seeing lots of people using capes easy to get? +- Will loads of people congratulating others for their capes? Of course! so if jagex study this 2 points, runescape will be a happyer world :) sorry for my grammar (im brazilian :twisted: ) or even if don't capes, make boots, if don't boots, make helmets My stats Quited RuneScape-17 July 2007, Still fighting for f2p rights Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PastyGangsta Posted July 17, 2007 Share Posted July 17, 2007 Only if they got the un-trimmed ones. Even if they have more then 1 lvl 99 they only get the untrimmed skillcape. But since most NPC's that hand them out are in members areas, it wont happen. Optimism is for suckers... :twisted: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cool_chica88 Posted July 18, 2007 Share Posted July 18, 2007 I think anyone who gets a 99 in a skill on F2P 100% deserves a skill cape. And personally, I don't see the harm done in allowing F2P this one item. How many F2Ps really have skills in the 99s anyways? (save for a few skillers/pures) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
viz94 Posted July 20, 2007 Share Posted July 20, 2007 Only a very small minority of F2P players have 99 skills, so I don't think Jagex should give F2P capes. Besides, they don't pay. i dont think you sort of get the point here. We want to give f2p capes because a very small minority have 99 skills. So it is even more special for them.

jcdock Posted July 20, 2007 Share Posted July 20, 2007 now im p2p by the way in someway they do deserve it they worked their buts off to get 99 and they have nothing to show for it, but on the other hand it it one of jagex draw cards to get ppl to come to members Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
