After scrolling through the RuneScape forums I stumbledupon a thread in the future updates section regarding f2p skillcape access. The thread demanded nonmembers have full access to nonmember skills.
After scanning through a few pages, I came to the realization that
a) most supporters were f2p with 99 stats(access to the forum : high level)
b) most anti-supporters(soz) were p2p without skillcapes themselves
c) most people who didnt care had a massive amount of skillcapes anyway
The main argument for (A) was that nonmembers put more effort into their stats and should deserve a way to show off their achievements not only by their combat level or pile of cash, but with a fancy cape. Free players also argued p2p'ers have much more content and skillcapes aren't that much of a giveaway.
The main argument from (B) was that f2p'ers didnt pay for the game and shouldn't receive any member content. Others stated that nonmems already got the duel arena, team capes, etc.and wonder if f2p players will ever stopping getting member benefits. Then there were the retarded noobs saying that if skillcapes went f2p most members would quit and go f2p.
Ok, my opinion is simple: if you earned the level, you should have the cape.
Stuff:
For the whining members who complain about f2p members infringing on p2p features etc, grow up. F2P rs2 is the trial versionof runescape(directly from the website) and p2p rs2 is the full version. Have you ever beaten a game on the demo version? I doubt it. An accomplishment on f2p such as a 99 should be rewarded. @noobs complaining about skillcapes being the reason they pay for rs2. First off, that's a lie. They obviously dont have a 99 because if they did they would have got it in f2p; why else pay for something you may get? Last time I checked, skillcapes came out in 2006(?) and rs has been around since 1999. I'm guessing all the members from 99-06 were donating to jägex, bc skillcapes hadn't come out yet. @noobs thinking all mems would quit if skillcapes went f2p: NO. Fools. I know that not every member has a skillcape. And I know that not every member pays just for the skillcape.
Misc Arguments:
"um sum skillcapez r at member places. Will f2p n00bs get acccess to p2p areas???????????????"
Just move the skillcapes tothe lummy guide, done.
Skillcapes have been around for a few years and I think they should be accesssable in f2p worlds. Cmon, skillcapes aren't even that big compared to p2p updates and upgrades. Make the f2p hardcores happy and give in.
Q: Should f2p'ers get scs? (NOT IF THEY will IF THEY should) Vote pl0X
