    Well their already is a P2P version but if you mean P2P only then I would have to say that their would be less macro/scamming accounts, little kids, immature "jackasses", and a bit less lag during peak hours.

    As a RuneScape member of 10 months, not to mention an F2P of 11 months (total 21 months), i've seen my fair share of those things i've listed and I believe that even if Jagex had a decrease in income do to not receiving F2P Ad clicks and Ad views throughout their website and the F2P game screen im sure they would still make plenty of money to profit.

    How you say?

    1. They could change 10-15 of the F2P worlds to P2P worlds and close the rest of the F2P worlds which would save money.

    2. At minimum 5-15% of the F2P community would switch to P2P so they could continue playing and this would increase income.

    3. If all else fails they could put an Ad at the top of every Knowledge Base page to make up for the loss of F2P game screen Ad clicks and views.

    Overall...I think changing RuneScape to P2P only would be for the best but they would have to give atleast a 14 day free trial to new players.

    what if they brought out a new version? this would include:

    1) WAAAAY better graphics!

    2) A more EXITING way of combat? instead of clicking and waiting... why not make it so that you have to press a button to attack each time? and when you do damage, why not have abit of blood splurting out and the amount of damage you did above your opponents head? and for younger players you could turn blood off :)

    3) Probably to do with graphics, but a more detailed world, and a bigger one if that. i think it is a bit rubbish how everywhere you go you can see all the squares in which players can stand.

    4) more weapons and armour types! (maybe you can choose to be a certain race like humans, elves, dwarves etc. so that you can only wear specific types of armour and weapon? might be too much like WoW then though?) this may seem abit far fetched but i think is lousy how the highest requirement to wield a weapon or wear armour is only 70 attack or defence. There are alot of high lvl people like 100+ now and they need something to be exited about!

    5) More harder quests! alot of the quests don't need very high requirements, and pures always find a way to wiggle around the high requirements, such as be able to defeat a lvl 200- odd jungle demon or whatever, like in monkey madness there is a little hideout place near the jungle demon, so you could just go there and let the gnomes kill off the demon for you! Whereas brave higher lvl people killed off the demon themselves.
