A lot of you are over thinking this. Stop worrying about what Jagex's motives are or what it will do to real world trading.
For me, all that matters is whether I will enjoy the return of free trade and the Wilderness. When these two things were taken away, I lost almost all joy in Runescape and have since played on and off without the same level of enjoyment that I once had.
So this is a very simple Yes from me. I'm looking forward to the feeling that I had back before 2007 when I logged into Runescape everyday.

After a whole decade of rs, it has become clear to me that rs just isn't what it once was. updates such as bounty hunter, dragon claws, soul split, extremes, and chaotics have made combat very different. as many people enjoy strong weapons, many fail to realze the ways in which it negativly affects combat.
but as for the wilderness...me along with many old -time rs players, would agree that that bounty hunter, along with other updates have changed the game negatively. i think the wilderness should be brought back, but i also feel...modern weapons have been made too strong and should be "nerfed". simpally because..in the old wilderness, there where no "bs" weapons, pots, or prayers, the weapon strengths and speed/hit ratios where perfect. but i feel as if new weapons are too strong, and fighting in the new wilderness may be ruined because of it.
Thank you for reading, and vote yes for the wilderness.

I personally wish free trade would come back so lending items will be easier and I wish to keep the current wild because I don't want to wonder out there and die. I will never set one foot in the wild once if the wild comes back.

I agree with both free trade and wilderness to come back. Not only will it make the game exiting again, but it will also bring people back into it and make a more competitive runescape vs. other great games like WOW. Even thought the war against real world trading will come back, lets face it... not only do people still bot but theres still sites out there that sell rs items or rising skills to players for us dollars.
In the worse case ... best thing to do in my opinion is before setting old wilderness back, to make a quest (like the one to access the game) that teaches people about what luring and scamming is like and how to prevent it from happening(the so known teleother to deep wilderness and flip trades)so that before people start falling into these they are aware. Also if you guys want to combat boting and real world trading, just set the trade limits higher without making it free trade and start developing new random events that are somewhat different to more efficiently catch bots and keep disabling boting sites and those such **tes that advertise in the game to sell items and GP.
Lastly I want to say that jagex has to listen to it's players and work for what they want, because indeed we are the soul of the gam. Listen to the polls and bring old wilderness and free trade back and make of this a better and more enjoyable Runescape for the vast majority of it's players.

C2 yadda yadda (dicarbon hydroxide of some sorts i never studied it properly ;D) i fully agree with you. Wildy and free trading is what made runescape so, so, so much fun to play. we cant let those liberal noobs ruin what is keeping this game afloat.

I don't care about free trade that much, but wilderness is a huge step jagex should take to revive this game. Most of my friends have left to play games like WOW because wildy was taken in 2007, in fact I'm the only one left out of a group of people in which i was introduced last (16 guys). I know for a fact that they are already looking back into coming back to rs if the update does happens, and so will many other people come back into the game. If u guys don't want RWT to come back, and lots of bots back into the game, eave trade limits untouched or set them up a little big higher. If Scammers or lurers are your concern have people informed about this by making a quest or something related to it, like u guys did to introduce bounty hunter or sacred clay.
Lastly I want to say that jagex has to listen to the majority, make wild come back.
