I understand where your coming from with the player killing being wrong and all, but you people just tick me off so freak-en bad. Honestly your complaining about this on one of the most least graph games of gore and such, your better off complain to something like GTA5 or something like that.....
but anyways.... I did vote for yes in bringing back free trade and the old wilderness. Honestly I realized after playing this games since the October event in 2004,(when I was a wee nub) This game was great with the free trade. I mean it was great being able to bargain to people about how much for a item and what not. I know it might seem tough to you (New People) but honestly, its as easy as trading a lollipop for a chocolate bar.(Yum)... Last thing about free trade - getting scammed is your fault, theirs two screens people cm-on, seriously stop pounding your mouse pressing accept, and actually check to make your everything's OK.
Wilderness I will say I didn't really PVP to much but I will say it was a much better experience then it is now. The EP system is just WACK, I prefer being able to get the gear my opponent is wearing.(perferebly something worth wild.) The wild we do have now though i will admit has its advantages with easier and safer access to the wild's riches(I guess), but that's just to easy then. The wild was and was always meant to be and all or nothing place where (you risk it all to win it all.)
This is for the rest of the update for the relocations of the other minigames, monsters, etc.
- If there gonna move it somewhere else just think about it, possibly new places to explore.
- Clue scroll they said they were gonna have cases on it so there probably gonna relocate them, not that big of a deal.
-Rev relocation/Hunting I honestly didn't care for this since the Rev's didnt offer me anything useful but a thorn in the as..(i mean boozumzz.)
Well this is all I have to comment on this subject for now, Thank You Jagex for Listening
Luv U RS

best defense vs bots are reporting and more mods patroling popular areas like in the army have a watch where a mod is payed just to do it for few hours then switch suggestion but yea you cant stop botting unless you take the attack to them and change every id and item id and hide ids dun give them out and new clients or keep that a secret because ur close mods could be selling ids for cash.....

I am not against either the Wildy or Free Trade. I actually would love to see them come back.
However I have a major concern that will crash the economy the GE had created.
I would like the GE to retain it's max and low values.
This isn't something many would agree on, but I know the only reason the Ge works is because it naturally rises and falls "because" of the lowest and highest options. To take those away and let someone freely manipulate the Mid price would just crash the only price guide we would have left.
A price guide is a great scam prevention that was not present back in the day when I was a newer player. However I was always wise to avoid scams, they still happened because players did not know the value of an item.
With the change of removing this only safegaurd you leave the GE dead in the water. Nobody would use it because everyone would charge 1m+ over the original price in an attempt to make bank on everything. The value of the coin would go down and millions "as hard as it is to make for new players" would be like nothing more than 10k in the eyes of the already rich. and everyone who isn't already rich will never be able to make money due to the constant price manipulation, and already hard to get items will be ever impossible to reach.
I've already seen this happen on MANY MANY games that have an economy. And I would hate to see this crippling thing happen to Runescape. I like being able to make money using my skills that I trained, but with this change to the GE, it would no longer be possible.
BTW all you nay sayers, I've spoken with people in game about this and I came to the conclusion;
This isn't Marketscape. I'm not going to learn how to merch. I'm not going to pk or item farm for money, it's not my style. I like actually working for my value. Not manipulating prices or cheating in a fight. Not all do that but guess what? I'm not one of those people who do those things for money.

I think you severely underestimate the threat RWTers pose.
Don't go back on your decisions. Runescape has been a genuinely more enjoyable game without scamming and an easier wilderness to traverse. I honestly wouldn't mind the return of the old wilderness but I would mind seeing swarms of bots around skilling areas.
... keep the grand exchange at least so players know what to do if they don't want to get scammed. The grand exchange was a great update either way.
People wanting the changes reverted have nostalgia goggles practically welded to their faces.
