I have only one way to express the irony in all of this:
"Jagex, I have seen some bad updates over the past couple of months. Not just the half-assed quests, but also attempts to increase your profits by enticing new members. As anyone who recognizes my username would know, I am clearly all for your maximizing profits - you deserve to make as much money as you can, and increased money allows you to develop a better game.
But, while I haven't been all too fond of some of the changes, I respected you for sticking by the one rule you have always had - a rule that mods said and stuck by back in 07 when they took on Real World Trading: "We will not allow real world economic status to influence one's ability to play the game outside of paying for their accounts membership." This is a rule you have stuck to - sure people can have multiple accounts, but they can't interact or multi log, so that doesn't give people with more money too much of an unfair advantage - they still couldn't buy gold or buy their stats.
This update effectively allows people with disposable money to buy their stats. Hate runecrafting? For the price of membership it will go faster. Close to that 99 and want it now? Membership.
You abandoned the truth you once crusaded for. I hope you feel as sick as I do."

You are no better than anyone else, and no one is better than you.
