@Fred, (sorry I respond late, was out for dinner)
I don't see the problem with wearing full bandos or something else valuable when pking. Where's the fun without the risk? It's the risk that makes you feel the adrenaline rush, it's the risk of getting caught, killed or even getting a kill from a clan deep in the Wilderness that drives many of us old school pkers in there.
I honestly understand that some people might run around with d'hide and stuff, but then you really shouldn't expect a bigger loot than what you're risking.. And you talk about making higher drops? I don't see the logic, sorry. No pain, no gain.
The wilderness was something that gave us some time off, what has now become many people's normal doings, skilling. It gave us some great memories, friends and foes, and I for one wouldn't have been the same player today without it.
After what I've read it doesn't seem likely that you had any affilitation to the old school wildy, and next time, please make sure you've considered your knowledge about that era before saying what is the case and what is not.
Thanks for the time,
~~ Jiggy
