I have a suggestion! can we get the option to sit to speed up our run energy? i just hate having to wait long for my run to recharge...


Full graceful, high agility, energy pots, stamina pots. Pick one, or all four. Don't devalue all four by suggesting rest.

Also, the perks of capes of accomplishment don't have to be available in F2P (except maybe the ability to use them to enter guilds), they can be purely cosmetic. But being able to at least wear and purchase them in F2P, at least, I think is an appropriate reward for anyone that has mastered a skill, be they a member or free player.

A lot of the skillcape masters are in members. And I would vote no to both moving them, and allowing f2p to get the capes. It's a perk of being a member. Just get money for a bond.

1. More player mods.

2. Give player mods the power to:
a) Cause all the axes/pickaxes in a player's inventory and bank to become broken.
b) Force logout players and require a CAPTCHA to log back in.
c) Issue 1-24 hour bans.
d) Instant ban players (for a short period of time pending further investigation) if player has received a certain number of reports from other players or has been profiled as a bot.
e) Temporarily degrade axe/pickaxe to the power of bronze/iron (this way the bots keep mining but real players are able to compete).

3. Instead of giving the above powers to player mods, apply them automatically to accounts that have been profiled as bots (beyond a reasonable doubt but not with enough certainty to warrant a ban).

4. Create a sticky with commonly suggested bot-busting ideas and why they won't work. I'm curious to know why automatic bans aren't feasible, as long as they are short.

"It's a perk of being a member."

Obviously, hence why this is a suggestion.

I don't understand why there is so much opposition to this, aside from the standard kneejerk "we can't allow pures or free players to have anything that non-pures and members have because they chose to be pures/free players." As I said in my previous post, this is the only piece of content you will see me pushing to move from members to free-to-play. Getting 99 in a skill is the ultimate accomplishment in Runescape and I think it deserves some recognition regardless of whether you got there as a free player or member. As has been stated many, many times, free-to-play is a game in and of itself, it isn't just a free trial for members Runescape. There are still plenty of perks for being a member.

"A lot of the skillcape masters are in members."

I would be open to keeping the purchase requirement in members but allowing equipping and unequipping in F2P.

"If you cbb to pay for things, you shouldnt be rewarded."

Not an argument. Free players are rewarded in plenty of ways already. It sounds like you don't just want to not reward them but punish them because you disagree with their choice to be a free player. How about this: If capes of accomplishment were a new piece of content to be added to the game, would you make them free content or members content and why?
