Member item?

So this is a members item, I get that. 10 years of playing runescape, I have never been a member. I recieved this off-hand and was able to equip it. I had it equiped for 2 weeks, and I took it off to fight, I went to go put it back on, but I was not able to due to it being a members item. Was this a mistake Jagex made? A way to lure people in to become a member? Or just a bug that happened? 71.192.98.169 05:28, June 13, 2013 (UTC) The shark they call James

The off-hand weapons were originally bugged, where free players could receive and equip them. Jagex later patched this making free-players unable to use them as a weapon. Everyone who still has one equipped will "punch" opponents, as if they were logged into a free world and wielding for example an abyssal whip (and not carrying a weapon at all).
