These f2p'ers may be destroying themselves

[Mithril_Max]

in this weeks runescape poll (wich is for free players only o.O) has an option that says "I already have enough to do in the free game" wich over 15,000 people voted on... Jagex may see this as an excuse to either revamp members with some major game-altering updates or even take some things away from f2p. It sounds heartless but from a financial point of view it would make a lot of sense and I was wondering if the f2p'ers knew what they were doing when they voted. discuss!

[DRUMINATOR17]

Then WHY THE HELL do the seem to always complain whenever they dont get an update or complain that members are getting to many updates?

[Mithril_Max]

y'know i asked myself that same question :-k

[Evil_Sabre]

how many people total voted in that pole? because 15,000 seems like an awful small percentage, considering how many f2p players there are

:roll: ungrateful f2p'ers. but i doubt jagex will take anything else from them. i mean, what could they take? any skill they remove will cripple the rs economy. you take mining, well there goes regular ess. take smithing, no more cheap f2p armor. take rcing, no more cheap airs and such. take fishing, no more lobs for the f2pers. there really isn't much more they can take away.. :-k

over 200,000 voted and even though 11% may seem small thats 15,000 potential members who dont feel they need any new content

firstly, ALL of us do not complain and secondly sweety6556, we are not ungrateful. sure a majority is but the rest of us accept the fact, yes you pay its only right that you get more updates but only just recently in the past 2-3 months has F2P been getting very lucky especially with the party room in falador. not alot of people in P2P that i knew used it but yet some whinged that F2P were getting things they dont deserve. its like giving a baby a ball, it doesnt want it but when the other baby has the ball, the first one will want it. simple logic.

 

 

 

and no-one but jagex knows what will happen with the results of the vote. might go in favor of P2P or F2P all we can do is wait...

 

 

 

 

 

and nicrune008, saying that is basically saying were morons. take a look at "some" of the P2P pures that act cocky thinking there much better because there l33t and have 99 str compaired to my 77. my eyes, thats childish.

I have no idea what your talking about, when and more importantly where do f2p complain? If your a member you wouldn't know if they complain or not in f2p worlds, and I haven't seen any major complaint except more bank space from f2p, which everyone knows they won't get.

[jemathonical]

:-k

 

I voted for 'I already have enough to do in the Free Game'. It's a F2P only poll, so if you don't think there was enough in the F2P, you would become a member. So the poll does make sense. Enough cheap shots already???

[Master_Smither]

Theres barley any F2pers that complain most accpet the fact that they don't pay.

 

 

 

Did you notice when they got the party room they didn't complain but we get 1 minor update and we have a riot in world 99 Fally. Most memeber are cocky and think they deserve whatever they want pures especially.

 

 

 

I don't think that jagex will ever get rid of free to play because it's a HUGE income because of advertising

And all members come from F2P.

yea i dont think its a good idea to be like, heres a game pay $5 monthly for it.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

wow really could do this,because after seeing some gameplay you would know if you might want to play it. runescape is kind of like, oh ill try, its free..

i didnt necessarily say they would take out f2p all I said was that Jagex may take away some content or overhaul members (and if f2p generates so much income why would jagex want more members?)

[assassin1834]

allot of that 15,000 could also be members who are a f2p player for a short while or people who are members and are voting on their f2p pures...

 

 

 

i personally am f2p and since i dont pay, i dont complain! i mean i would like f2p updates....but were not going to get them so GET OVER IT!!!

theres an option of "I already pay for a member account" and another one for people who lost memberships so I find that unlikely

as pointless as that is id bet there would be a sticky for it in rants :lol:

 

 

 

"wtf jetex i wants fire anyplace"

[Lefke123]

those votes can also been done by ppl that try to destroy the game or just like 1 skill, per se mining

 

 

 

or maybe its done by very young people that actually only know to do 1 thing? anythings possible...

Firemaking :lol:

 

no freakin way :shame:

15k out of the 280k+ responses to that poll question. Think it's not worth dramatizing. It is, obviously, stupid of them to vote on it, but still they shouldn't lie in a poll so they get updates. Also it doesnt mean they wont be tempted later on to buy a members account, might even motivate Jagex to do better updates to P2p to seduce them, but like I said at the beggining, it's only 15k/280k+ votes.

its really not the ratio of voters that coems to play here, 15,000 potential members are a lot to pass up 15,000 people paying 5$ a month would be a nice raise

Yes of course, I'm not saying it wouldn't. But relatively to the amount of people who would like to become P2p and can't it's not that much.

 

Also, I'm sure all the f2p players realize that, so I think that by voting for the "I have enough to do in the free world" option, it doesn't exclude the possibility of them becoming members later on, because, fact is, f2p is a fun place but can only take you so far when it comes to "pixel satisfaction". So I'll end this with the same way I started: I think there's no need to dramatize it too much.
