Well the 1st one was a joke to say the least; f2p worlds will be free of cannons/fams/avatars/pets, but I imagine they'll be even more players, so probably end up almost as laggy...on the upside the world servers themselves shouldn't be as bad, which will help.
Not sure how Jagex underestimated the amount of players that would turn up so badly though - runecoins are only obtainable via real money outside of things like this, so obviously tons of people are going to want them, it's not like they're easily obtainable in-game, and they're certainly not cheap either considering the prices of pets and cosmetic packs like the assassin and dwarven warsuit packs.
Of course, the overcrowding only makes the codes being released in public chat worse - it means people have to find the Jmod in the crowd before they can even take part, and even then they have an incredibly low chance of getting anything out of it.
