"With the return of Wilderness there is also a return to a desire to train magic. At the moment magic is a nice skill cape but *** really THAT useful."

you dont like summoning i take it?
ice barrage on dust devils or Rock Lobsters is the fast way to get Crimson charm's that i know off?

I don't understand how people keep arguing about this...
Isn't this an advantage for **** new as old players? I'm an old player myself and used to pk in the old wildernis and I can tell you it was way better then PvP and BH.
For those who think this isn't true, are you actually thinking it all through then? If you read the post made by the J mods you can read that the people you kill will drop ALL of their stuff no exeptions unless they use protect item prayers, so this must be better then PvP right, where you can't get their stuff. Another advantage is you don't need EP to get a decent drop so that's another disadvantage of PvP and BH whiped out.
For those who don't PK and voted "no", Why did you do this? If you don't PK then simply don't vote!
For those who thinks it will be to dangerous out there then, why don't you stay out of there then, as all those mini-games and clue locations will be removed?
As speaking about the botters, there will ALWAYS be botters around! And do they really bother you?! JaGex said they're getting good in detecting bots, so let's say there will be more botters, but there will also be more botters banned. So this keeps even. They may ruin the economy but if wildernis comes back, more people will start playing again so that means there's more demand again, which evens the supply made by the botters, right? The market will always restore itself.
This is just MY opinion, don't flame me for this :)

Lover of the old Wildernis

"Fate TBA your also know how high ice barrage and dragon (e) bolt combo hits then?"
IDIOT;
How much does it cost to kill someone with those? At a chance to gain what? Barraging some 3 itemer running through the wilderness is pointless... if they're deep then they shouldn't be risking a lot. If they're not deep then you should be able to click teleport before they instantly kill you while your running around... and what are you doing in the wild without a dragonfire shield you noob?

Let me run this by you guys and see what you think
Back before the **, in order to get bulk supplies of something I used to have people on my friends list who for example, Was a woodcutter and spent almost all there time doing that. Everytime you wanted one you would message them or find them at a bank and ask for buy some. This was how it was and there was alot more cooperation.
Now with the GE, its more convienent, but you lose the cooperation. You walk up to a NPC and just put in your order. Everyone pretty much just takes care of themselves.
This personally is something I feel that made Runescape great and something that it has been missing since the update. It might just be me, but i miss it.

Keeplers I agree with u, totally right. I remember reading that 10 billion gp daily came just from gwd and alching (Rs poll). And gwd is pretty much nerfed. The economy, overall it's true stuff will go up at first but ultimately they will end up dropping because there will be a cycle of supply and demand. U kill someone and sell back... that person needs what they lost and they get it back. So is in constant motion. And yea mage lately has nearly no use, at least when it comes to fighting... and most people want 99 to fight... not to teleport l0l.
Main reason why stuff are to go up... is cause more people will come back into playing as well as some rich people will use their money towards rising items but still if none buys it... it drops again so it would always be to a price people are willing to pay.

Been reading through the forums... why do people assume that a) people only make throwaway accounts to vote yes and b) Jagex can't detect that. There are strong opinions both ways on this, and I'm fairly sure that people are trying to stuff the ballot both ways, and therefore balancing each other out. Secondly, less than a million people have voted and the vote has been out for a while now. Perhaps Jagex has some system in place to filter out spam votes (e.g. tracking what an account does before validating its vote). Maybe, just maybe, Jagex managed to do a fair vote this time. Also, I know a lot of old players are interested in this. My friends and I played years ago, but mostly stopped when the wilderness was taken out. Once it was announced we all got on with our old accounts and voted for it, because it revitalized our interest in Runescape. The wilderness is pretty much the end game content, especially for free to plays that don't have much else to do once they get to level 60 (or even less) in most skills.
