Items such as guthix, saradomin and zamorak rune sets are f2p accessible. But Armadyl, bandos, and ancient rune sets are members only. Will you guys be polling adding these items to the f2p list ( as well as other items such as normal attack potions etc)

Releasing these items to f2p will have a positive economical impact as they have little use and value to members but will be the best items for f2p accounts. Meaning herblore willl be a bit more profitable ans clue scrolls will have more value. I remember sara sets being worth 5m because of f2p back in the day.

Im sure there are other items that would make good f2p items these are just a few i c** think of

This is only for the first 24 hours. The profit from F2P PKing at lower levels is essentially non-existent anyway, a majority of players tak

Sorry but this is incorrect. Many players used to f2p risk fight saradomin/zzamorak/gguthix sets back in the day in the wildy. i was one of them. even as a member i enjoyed f2p pking it has different mechanics

I wonder what Jagex's opinions on splashers are in F2P; I wonder this because I still see people splash training AFK on goblins, spiders, and chickens in P2P worlds, and I'm pretty sure they didn't get the memo that it was nerfed and not welcome in the game.

In any case, I'm glad F2P is being instated. =) Oh, I almost forgot.
Oh, I already forgot.

If you polled the F2P question with these restrictions I would have voted no. You're going way too hard on these restrictions to stop bots that it's severely messing up the gameplay for those who want F2P pking accounts.
Reminds me of how you guys went overboard to stop rwt back in December of 2007.

Not entirely. Adamant arrows, Runes, amulets, and food drops are very useful in multi to keep stocked up without having to bank. It's not so much about profit, but more about not having to bank as quickly.
Edgeville will be dead because you risk rune 2h's and scimmy's for nothing in return.

It's not profit; it's about being able to stay stocked up. Everything stated here is forwarded from a major corporation. Nothing here is my opinion. Enjoy your salad.

I am really against the F2P restrictions. I know something needs to be done about bots, but restrictions are not the answer. This is the same kind of thing that was forced on us when Free Trade was removed.

F2P PKing should not be limited. It was always fun to make a new account and PK in Varrock. If players have to wait 24hr in game time whats the point.

If you want these restriction than they MUST be voted on first.

Restriction to trade and pking goes directly against the spirit of Old School.

^ these guys, to get all the food/supplys/combat lvls takes more then 24 hours anyways....i dont see why its such a big deal to you. If u really want to make a f2p account to pk at lvl 3 combat then during thoes 24 hours just skill to make money for the runes u will need for air strike. And the 24 hours dont restrict you to "getting items on your acc" its only restricts you from "taking items off you account" why is that a big deal..
