RuneScape - Made for FroobsThe second conteder is RuneScape. It can also be played completely for free.
The main problem with the free membership is that you see large banners at the top of the screen. Furthermore, as opposed to MapleStory, access to several items, spells and areas are limited to paying members. However at $5.00, a RuneScape membership is a lot cheapter than for example World of Warcraft's $20 a month.
RuneScape used to be a game with full PKing (player killing), meaning that you could kill any other player and loot all their items and money. That is no longer the case. Furthermore, Jagex, the parent company of RuneScape, has tried to limit the sales of in-game currency by prohibiting uneven trades, based on an automatic system for determining an item's value. This takes away the point of traiding in order to become rich in the game. As of now, people instead hire chinese power leveling teams to farm gold for their account.
