Because once you become a member, you realize how bad f2p is. XD

Fastest mining XP in F2P is like 30K xp per hour. In P2P you can get over 50K mining xp per hour.
Fishing for any profit is very slow in F2P, in members there are lobster, monkfish, and shark spots steps away from banks.
Prayer is A LOT faster to level and less wasteful.
Magic can be the same speed, but is a lot less wasteful with various items to mass alch and get a good chunk of the money spent back/profit.
Runecrafting is really slow in F2P, and profits are less. In members, it was one of the fastest ways of money with skills, and a lot faster to train.
Crafting is a lot faster, and easier.
Cooking is well... doesn't really matter. You can get 99 with under 2M in two weeks.
Firemaking is basically the same in the two versions, except more good areas to firemake in if they're full in F2P (Idk)
There may be little speed change for smithing but rings of forging make it less wasteful.
Ranging is really faster in members, up to 400K xp per hour if you're rich. XD But yeah, many things are a lot better XP than maple bow.

F2p has few ways to make good money, members has a lot. Add in like 5X the area, 9 more skills, minigames, updates, the child filter-outer (although doesn't work as well as you would want), forums (not worth it xD), many more quests, items, etc...

Yeah, it's worth it. Well, worth it if you're going to be playing RuneScape- $5/month is cheap but still is too much for this game.

I find that Dudefish15's F2P commentary videos accurately describe F2P.. can't link to them because of the language but his Youtube account is "Dudefish15"

But if you're curious about finding them, there are:
Commentary of f2p 3 - Strong Language.
Commentary of f2p 4 - Strong Language.
Commentary of f2p 5 - Strong Language.
Commentary of f2p6 - Wasted Edition!

So don't waste your time looking where number 1 or 2 are, they're no longer up. :P

I would say 100% yes!

I, mylself, am not a member, but only because I'm not allowed to be. If you can get it, I say go for it! :D

Exactly. when my freind bacame a member, he no-lifed, and could never just focus on one thing. Also, when you become a member, you escape (most) of the annoying 9 year olds who go around asking people to be their BF.

It's definately worth it. The additional content is massive and you'll wonder how you ever played f2p as long as you did.

F2P was fine when I was first starting out but once I started leveling I wanted access to the other side of the wall at Taverly. Probably wouldn't play if I didn't have my membership.

Good point, I don't think I could imagine still being a F2P.
