pk worlds will no longer exist, they won't really know where there will be a lot of pkers, they may have to organise a world but there won't be as many, there may be more pkers but just spread across a variety of worlds.
merchers usually use the ge as their source of income, when this update goes through who on earth is going to buy bulk of 1 item in one world, they're going to have to hop like crazy and buying bulk of 1 item such as pure essence for those runecrafters, they're going to be spamming the forums, although jagex isn't very clear about what is happening with the ge this is only hypothetical of course.

If you're dumb enough to take all your valuables out of the bank, cross over the wilderness ditch, click OK to the big box that pops up on your screen, and go along with someone you don't know... you deserve to die and lose all your stuff.

@Emin3m: That would still be leaving people in the dark, although that is my personal opinion I don't really like that idea.
@Living Soul: Merchers won't die, market manipulation will just become a lot harder. PKers will thrive in the wildy, you obviously didn't play much before the removal of those two did you?(Rhetorical question by the way.)
Edit: Seems you haven't played many other MMOs either have you? People buy bulk items on Auction houses then resell them at a higher price to make money, it's a common practice.

They will know where to find each other, trust me. Before the update in 2007 what do you think they did? Stand about 5 of them on each world? It's clear you're not from those times. Don't worry about that, it wont be a problem and pking will be active as ever compared to the lousy 200 per world as under the current system.

========
Merching using the GE is the WORST thing that happened as a result of that update in 2007. It forces prices upon the players as opposed to being an open market. Pre-2007 merchanting was a skill and players who were good enough knew how to get the extra bit of money from it.
Merchanting will become an unofficial skill again rather than a manipulation of a tool.

It wouldn't leave people completely in the dark.. You wouldn't have the set upper and lower limits to know the exact range but you will still have an idea of the average price. It's better than nothing. I agree that an Auction House type of thing would be better but would require a ton of work by Jagex and may not even be possible for them.
