It kills me to see all these new players, not wanting the wilderness to come back.
All you players that have recently joined, who know Runescape as it has been since 07-10, are blind.
You have not see Runescape at its fullest.
Mostly, the only people boycotting this vote, are skillers and new-school players!
Unfortunately, for you skillers and new-school players,
we old-school player-killing addicts, are a much bigger quantity.
Notice how many players are coming back now that Wilderness/Free trade petition has started.
I have voted four times.
See you in the wilderness...

here is how "scamming works"
scenario 1:
Players 1 buys 1k mage logs and 1k willows (they used to look like eachother) mage logs are on market price for 1.3k ea he selling in world 18 cammy bank for 800 ea, player 2 sees this and thinks he is about to get the deal of a lifetime, he throws up his 800k for 1.3mil worth of mage logs and clicks away at accept not wanting player 1 to think, player 1 quickly and quitely switches the mage for willows, and clicks accpet himself, now in second trade window if you where smart you would see is says willow logs (x1000) and not magic logs(x1000)... player 2 just spent 800k on maybe 30k of willows...

scenario 2:
before money was colored at diferent mils you could make 4 look like k... a whip was worth about 3mil so player 1 would sell a whip for 3mil player 2 comes and puts up 50004, now that is only 50k but it used to look like 5000k player 1 gets all excited and rapidly clicks accept... in second trade window he SHOULD look and see it saus 50004 and not 5,000,000....

simple enough? scamming cant work anymore bc money has colors and items look dif, and the big flashing exclamtion point!
jagex already stated that they will being moving some things, i do not think drags and clue scrolls should be moved becuase they where there in old rs when i played and i did just fine...
this pole is very fare, people always complaining how people are using mult accounts, i have 3 accounts and yes i voted will all of them, if you think thats unfair well make more and go ahead and hit no...you still gona loose at 875k votes nomater how many kids vote no its gona happen....
geting lured is your own fault, if kids says oh yeah ill give u p hat if u folow me and u folow, well youre about to learn a life lesson on talking to strangers...
dont wana get pkd then dont go in wildy...

I'm sternly against it
Being here since 2004, I never liked wilderness and had mixed feelings about Free Trade
Bringing back free trade and wilderness will only revive the old problems Runescape had and a possibility of bringing a horde of new ones.

"If the vast majority of our players vote in favour of it, then we will do exactly that. "
This is not an election in which the majority is that of which actually votes-- Jagex wants to see an affirmative sign that the people want this (being indifferent or not voting means voting no)
This line was taken from the very first post on this thread, and it clearly says how the vote will be tallied up.
yes vote = yes vote
--------------------
no vote, don't care vote, or not voting= no vote
-------------------------------------------------
This is very clear in the post!!!!!
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
=====================================================
O.K.
Maby,
I am reading too much into it, but realize Jagex has a history of framing updates in a way that often seems different then the reality of what they become. I not saying that they are deceitful (they are not of course),but they tend to present things in ways that causes us to reach conclusion that they may have implied but not expressly stated as their objective.
Pvp in the wild may be strongly discouraged if revs. are relocated and reprogrammed to automatically attack any player sculled as a result of fighting in the wilderness.
(they may even avoid other players aka those not skulled or skulled only elseware---abyss)
Maby I am wrong, but Jagex rarely gives the full story about something until they actually do it, now this time when the unexpected happens thsy can at least say "well you voted for it" and they would be right.
When and if this goes wrong the minority can then stand up and say "see we told you so"
Then again it may not go wrong, they may be completely upfront with their plans, though as history goes this then would be a first.
thanks---for listening to my concerns.

Being a big Runescape fan since the game came out, I was heartbroken when they took out the old wilderness and the free trade. The game changed, and people quit. I've seen how pvp has changed in Runescape:
You used to have to ask someone to fight you in any location, fight, and get their items. Then they introduced the wilderness (best thing ever :D ). When they removed that, people became ******. Bounty Hunter made it so that you could still get your opponents items but with the price of fighting people of higher combat levels. Then Jagex took that out as well. I was not a fan of Bounty Hunter... :@ When BH was gone, they brought back entire world pvp and the wilderness. The only problem with these was that the drops were set up so any player could get a kill and get something good. Well, this had its badside as well. Players would also get bad drops, drops not worth the food that was used in the fight O_o ! Now, they want to bring the GOOD wilderness back. I'm all for it! Maybe some of the players that quit will start to play again, such as me ;)
