Dingo Posted June 12, 2006 Share Posted June 12, 2006 Okay, first of all, why should we HAVE to be limited because we choose not to pay to waste our time in front of a computer like you? And I'm pretty sure you started playing f2p when you started out as well. There are many things to to in f2p to keep you occupied for a LONG time... What would the few THOUSAND people that play f2p have to say if they capped it? Dumb Idea So... If Pro is the opposite of Con, does that mean that Congress is the opposite of Progress? ...?

Happysniff Posted June 13, 2006 Share Posted June 13, 2006 Maybe its arrogant fools like you who should have a level cap. Why should f2ps be restricted to level 40? And if this idea were plausible, which it isn't, you could have at least made the lvl cap higher. You're just be a greedy, selfish member, not all people have the money to buy stuff like members. If that happened there would be a massive decline in players. And you were an f2p to start with, were you not? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jgrazotis Posted June 13, 2006 Share Posted June 13, 2006 wen u start member with higher skills say 60 all it would be alot esier to stay alive and raise skills not all f2p have money to pay for members every month thanks to mitsubishi64 who made this sig Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ikzelf100 Posted June 13, 2006 Share Posted June 13, 2006 the statement about the money aint right... i'm f2p and i dont become members because: - i'm scared that i will be playing too much if i become members, because i already play alot now. and in p2p, there is soo much to do... yea i quit member now becuase i got all importants tests now at the end of the year i cant play runescape too much now :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
forall Posted June 14, 2006 Share Posted June 14, 2006 i am a f2p player, and i am proud of it. Has anyone ever heard "It's just a game" Well RS is just a game. As good as it is, I don't see the point of paying to be able to kill more creatures (Slayer) or to make potions ( Herblore) or to do anything else that only members can do, and ( no offense to anyone who cares about the rights of F2P) the only reason P2P think they are better is because they get to pay in order to play the game. I currently have about seven accounts, and not one of them is a member. I am proud of that and I despise all P2P who think only of themselves. As it has been said many times, "F2P is the game; P2P is the extension" I don't suffer from laziness, I enjoy every minute of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StrikerRay Posted June 15, 2006 Share Posted June 15, 2006 ok then tell us god, not all of us have credit cards or anything..and for you its 3 pounds for me its 8 dollars i think..doesnt sound like very much but its alot to parents..especially to pay it monthly. runescape will always be a free game, never pay to play. It would be so unfair to the people that want to try this game too [-X \:D/ Ray::P2P::::Roaming Around::::Phat me pl0x?::::Beamster:: \:D/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kirk Posted June 16, 2006 Share Posted June 16, 2006 As many others have said, "dumbest idea ever". Jagex has other ways to make f2p's want p2p. Such as more skills to do. You can part of the way cut logs for fletching, but you can't fletch. They can Runecraft, but not all the way. See what im getting at? Anyways, on the topic of "only like 3 pounds a month"... For some people its 5 dollars:P I remember back in the day when i wanted members, my dad made me work my rear end off to earn that money so i could use his credit card to pay for it. He wouldnt just let me give him the 5 dollars. So, others could be in the same boat. Wozza, and if you still complain about them not being able to get members... why dont you pay for all of them? Probably about a million of them. You have an extra 3 million pounds right? [Admin edit: We cant have this on a g-rated forum]Yeah, Im Strong..

alex92100 Posted June 17, 2006 Share Posted June 17, 2006 f2p is just fine, my mum and dad took aloooooooooooot of persuading before letting me become a member. I say its time for some stat resets... who's with me!Stat reset? :uhh: Noooooooo! *Grabs levels and hugs them* MIIINE! MIIINE! :ohnoes: mmmm...... lol :p Woow, Jagex made a typo, let's hate them now.

geez Posted June 17, 2006 Share Posted June 17, 2006 Im one of those players who only get members if I have time to do so, if a cap would be set, it would ruin the game for me, coz the time I m free2play, I wont be able to get any lvls, wich would eventually make me quit rs, wich would make jagex recieve less money... Im getting tired of people who think that just because of they got more then others, the others should still be punished all the times the difference between p and f2p is just fine, leave it that way rsn: geezerrrr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eyehawk78 Posted June 20, 2006 Share Posted June 20, 2006 I like f2p dont get me wrong. Its just when your playin it its like seeing a cupcake on top of a bookshelf and not being able to reach it. i.e When u go up to the gates near falador and it says "You need to be on a member server to access this feature." Like its teasing you. So I bought p2p for the full access. :D Website Updates & Corrections | Website Discussion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

destroyon2 Posted June 20, 2006 Share Posted June 20, 2006 It's not the cost that stops people from trying to become a member, there has been a poll in the past on the runescape site and it showed that most people just didn't have the access to someway of paying. So don't think that f2p players are cheap, they just can't find a way to pay. Get 5 bucks, put it in an enveloppe and send it in the mail. not that simple cuz its actauly more if u pay by months its like $7.50 and u have to western unoin or have a money order and u can buy a year for 65.99$ soooo its not as easy as u think pal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aciidfla5h Posted June 20, 2006 Share Posted June 20, 2006 thats right, u get much more satisfaction when ur high lvl in f2p than when ur high lvl in p2p. i get plenty of laughs while chopping yews and seeing ppl in full dragon or whatever going "OMG! NO WAY!". :D PS: im f2p. bite me. Level 77 for life. Lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most people don't have a checking/bank account to pay from (considering many of the players are children) and that you're forced to pay more when you do it the easy way.

Skorne Posted June 20, 2006 Share Posted June 20, 2006 I'm 17, don't have a job (don't even have a fricking bank account) and have just left college. I've never been p2p but when I get a job I'll probably get a months worth. I'm not going to buy like, a year worth of membership or anything because I have a tendancy to just lose interest in runescape randomly, so I don't want to waste money.

Specsy Posted June 20, 2006 Share Posted June 20, 2006 that would make the game so unpopular when those who have worked so hard to train skills above 40 realise they've been wiped back to 40. It's like suicide for the game, and would cause extreme outrage among the free players. I mean, why put a level cap on when they are fine as they are? It would overturn the economy and upon hittingl level 40 (which is very easy to do) free players would not have anything left to p[lay for! Bad idea.

Elphinstone Posted June 20, 2006 Share Posted June 20, 2006 lol all the f2p's are saying its a rubbish idea. Tbh anyone who cant pay cos their parents wont let them is absolutely pathetic..im sorry but ÃÆââ¬Å¡Ãâã3.29 a month LOL There are plenty of ways to pay, without ur parents even having to agree Really... What about me, when i ve worked to get a high lvl mining, and im wiped back to nil. and what about dragon slayer? Can you do that quest with only 40 in each skill? even worse, how are you ging to get the money to buy Rune after that. Now, about the cost issue, i get an allowance, and it's true my parents really dont want me paying for an online game. But i have other hobbies i spend my time on, runescape is just one. If i was to start paying for RuneScape, it would cause me to cut back on everything else. Besides, some people just couldn't care less about a membership. One more point to make. It's hard to lvl to high levels on F2P, so people generally get to lvl 50 or 60 skill in most of their skills before going P2P, if they go at all, because the majority of the quests and monsters are higher lvl. I REALLY hate that idea. :evil: Which FF Character Are You?"The only tyrant i accept in this world is the still voice within." - Mahatma Gandhi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
