Snip

Mod Mat K on the previous LiveStream about the annoucement of the poll of Free to Play/Bonds already stated that if they release F2P and there isn't enough servers to go around for all the people logged in, they will simply open up new ones with one of there Technical Director

on stand so that they can put any F2P servers that they have already reserved so that they can get the huge load of players online.

The announcement says that "If you have ever been a member this restriction will not apply to you." (The 24 hour restriction)

Does this mean that an account that had a previous membership, even a great many years ago, will not face these restrictions?

In a previous Dev Blog, some P2P content was to be polled for F2P but due to bad feedback most of it was scrapped except Teleblock spell which failed the poll. However everything else in the Dev Blog wasn't polled, can we poll following content:
(Shortened for space)


I've always wondered about this for a while but was skeptical as to how big of a change it would be. I feel as if F2P clanning would be somewhat op unless F2P got better food aside from swordfish.

this is ridiculous. we asked for full and permanent f2p, and not for any ******* restrictions, why the hell did we even vote for this then?


I don't want to spend 24 hours on this game just to pick up some damn loot

f2p pking will not be alive as long as you still try to give us so many restrictions ffs.

this is a complete joke, we asked for full f2p and not restricted f2p, idc about bots. you guys broke again another promise


^^^
That's someone that will be botting to the max.. If you are going to PK, you're going to have to put in hours regardless to train your account. In order to PK you also need money, so you will be spending time making some money for that.

Anyone with this attitude are the ones that will be botting. :)


That makes no sense whatsoever. And "putting in hours"? If I wanted to low-level pk on an account from scratch, it'd only take me a couple of hours to get the account to the way I want it depending as to what level I start at considering I'll already have the resources ready on another account.

I really hope there are some alternatives to this restriction atleast. I honestly say cut the in-game time limit from 24 hours to 2-6 for accounts that participate in any wilderness activity and keep the 24-hour restriction the same for accounts that do anything aside from that.

If you're worried about accounts transferring gold, don't allow gold to be seen upon death during that restriction.

EDIT: Sorry for double post :|

Chat restrictions

We will also be making some changes that allow us to better detect and silence spam bots. Players found to be flooding the public chat channel and not using autochat will be dealt with far more quickly and will be temporarily muted in no time.

This will apply in both members and F2P, helping clean up the streets of Lumbridge for new players.


This is really good news, muting spammers will reduce RWT advertsing and reduce Phishing attempts. I hope this also applies to PM messages because RWT spam is a nuisance and removing spammers I see as positive for the game.

Can we get a separate rule for reporting accounts using third party autotypers please?

Original message details are unavailable.
We will be increasing the number of low-level monsters in and around Lumbridge and other starting areas of the game.


Can Jagex also increase low level mining spots up to iron and coal?

Thank you Jagex.
Hi.

It's very ironic @Ronan how you say you will see how things go for a few weeks after Perm F2P is released for tweaks, yet you're releasing these restrictions on the upfront release for possible a large number of new players in the community?

What i'm saying is, how about seeing it goes just dealing with botters from release without the added on restrictions, and implement the restrictions if it does get too bad? I'm sure new players would be loving doing the small things like trading random crap to eachother..
