Jagex has made changes to F2P in the past such as adding maple bows and few other various things, if you can remember that far into the past! 2005-2006'is*. The changes were accepted without a fight, as it made F2P more exciting. They changed it because rangers were weak in comparison to melee/magers, now all three sides of the combat triangle are about as perfectly balanced as can be so there is no need for any more items because it will just ruin it and imbalance it.

Bind is actually really useless and makes mages inferior. Did you know the bind counter starts when you cast the spell?

thing is, people will blindly vote yes without understanding the impact it has on the game. as an avid f2p clanner, i have always based my vote on how it will effect others. like i said, we dont ask for much, just a chance to protect our small world from being ruined -- again. Also F2P clanning is admittedly a small percentage of the game, people who don't do it or know anything about it will just assume it's good, not to mention it will increase value of things like yew bows and splitbark so it helps them, but it has a huge impact on F2P clanning and will probably ruin it

F2P clanning should be left as it is, unless you're gonna update it with ways to lure people in the wild then don't touch it

If you think binds are useless in f2p clanning I recommend asking one of the DF (or other clanners) posting here to join their next clan fight and you'll see just how useful it is. Then you'll see exactly why doubling that bind time would ruin fights.

Ad hominems don't work well my friend. We're all peers here, why be insulting?

The polls will decide the fate of F2P, if it's clearly unpopular by not sustaining 75% or higher then that matter will be settled for good i assume.

Tell your clan mates to vote no, Sparc mac and other influential people made spirit shields possible. Prove that you are more than just a vocal forumer.

•Rune boots

•Yew shortbow

•Splitbark equipment

*Attack & defence potions

We will also be offering the following spells:

•Teleblock

•Snare


Why would you even consider adding these items to f2p pking. I can't even imagine this. Why would you want to kill the clan world even more than it is now .... seriously makes no sense.

i can assure you, binds are not useless, and are an absolute necessity for any f2p clanning.

The f2p combat triangle is not perfect. Mages are severely underpowered at higher combat levels. At low levels they can 2 shot people easily, but once you get fire blast your damage is capped. Not many people use mage at high levels besides for hitting rune effectively, which tbh rangers can do just as well as they hit higher than 16. Mages also HAVE to wear blue wizard robes which are basic as hell.

Little different situation. Like has been said people will blindly vote yes (like I'm assuming you will) without taking into consideration the impact it will have on a big part of the f2p scene. If you want every f2p clanner to quit, because we all will if this passes, then by all means vote yes. It will just kill f2p even more

It'd be sick to add a "fletch all" button when cutting logs. It's already available for stringing bows, so why not logs? Kind of a hassle to type a number every inventory! Thanks guys! I was just thinking this yesterday, PLZ do this!
