So any randome player can type in my screen name and vote for me? I hope you do not expect honest results from this flawed poll.
On another note..
Old wilderness.
Bad idea, this will just bring back the people who camp locations that regular players need to use, like the Entrance to the Ghorrak fortress for the temple at sentistan quest, the mage arena, zamorak mage, beacon network, wilderness agility course, the mahjarrat base for the defender of varrock quest, clan wars, green dragons, chaos tunnels, king black dragon, chaos elemental, and lets not forget clue scrolls. i dont see giveing up all these updates for the sack of sattisfiying people who dont even play the game? I dont understand.
Free Trade..
I get a claw drop, yay! walk into varrock square,Random person: "oh yea i just bought these claws for 5 dollars from RSItems4Ca$h.***" "Facepalm" Nuff said.
Though it would be nice to reicive a gift from a friend, its not worth giveing up all the work Jagex put in to stop gold farming and botters.

To all the people who don't want the wildy and free trade back:
1. You can still do clues. In-fact I found this easier to do before revenants.
2. You can still rune craft in the abyss. Same deal.
3. Getting scammed is your own fault. (there is a second trade window just so you know!)
ps: Bring it all back!

Though I'm all for breaking world records, it would only be fair to the community if it was done in a practical way. There are many people who have strong feelings/opinions on this topic, and I believe the players should have a fair say whether they want the wildly/free trade without the worry of a rigged voting system.
I think the voting would be more accurate if it required us to log in to vote. This would prevent people from pulling random names from the hiscores.
For the topic itself, I believe that things are fine the way they are. I *now I'd enjoy being able to trade freely, but it isn't worth it if others have a higher chance of getting scammed.
-Just a little note for those who don't like reading a 'long' post:

"raedthel - Read the article then vote. It cleary says click here to proceed with the vote. IF you dont want it DONT go onto it. Simple as i dont know what the fuss is about because a 'NO' button. "
Yes, but what about some other player going in and voting for me.
Yes, I read the whole thing. It seemed like you were only voting to agree, but there were a few things that seemed to contridict that as well. Calling it a 'vote' for one, lol.
So I can agree it was my mistake for actually voting. That's NOT my main issue.
The issue is that simply by entering my username, someone ELSE can vote for me. So my silence actually isn't silence since as far as Jagex is concerned, I supported it.

"I am NathanT
However, they've stated that they'd need over 1million votes to even consider it; so if you don't vote - you're not going to be contributing to the count to 1M+"
It is at half that already. I doubt it won't get there.
I mistakenly and stupidly voted for it since I found it unclear. But even that aside, someone else can vote for me, and probably did, lol.
I think the method is flawed. As I said, win or lose, okay fine. Even if they didn't ask and just implemented it, fine. I go along with Jagex updates and play around the ones I don't like as much as I can.
But don't put in this system and call it a vote.
Anywho, been fun. Got to run off now.

Most of the people against the vote aren't against wildy or free trade (I have nothing but bad memories from them but meh, more people will be happy than sad from bringing them back so I'm OK with it). I assume (just assume) that most of us are against the "voting system". It's just god darn ********.

well a easy way;
ANYONE with a account older then lets say 5 YEARS will have free trade with SOMEONE OTHER with 5 YEARS?
this way you need to play long to get this lovley free trade xD.
and your tradelimit will grow each week you play untill these 5 years.
