I agree with you Fred.
This is just going to get all the Goldfarmers and bots back. Old wildy is not any better because you can use the drop system as a free trade there too. And jagex, this voting is ridiculous because it exists bots making acc's and votes with them -.-
I have also talked with alot of different people about this update and I have noticed that those with 115+ combat usually dont want this back, 114-80 is yes and no and 80- wants this update to happen. Alot of those who don't want the update is not voting. O_o (That's bad)
Please don't make this silly update to happen... If people wants old pking they should go to a private server.

Fred up,
As i've said many many times before: Botters and people doing RWT were NEVER gone, don't you think Jagex realised this could happen before they released this poll? The bot detect system has improved over years, there's no doubt about that. Just give them a hand and report any botters and RWTers, and look at how it will go for a couple of days, I'm sure Jagex would do something if it gets too much of a problem.
Thanks for reading,
~Arch

I think that the trade limit being removed is a great idea, but the wilderness idea has a few problems. For high levle players it must seem like a great idea but low levle players won't stand any chance of getting through the wilderness without being killed, it would make the wilderness a bit too dangerous for medium levle plays like me aswell.
The way to make it so everyone is happy is o have some worlds with the wilderness we have now and some with the old wilderness. This would help bring back the players that you have lost because of the new wilderness, but not lose the players who are playing rite now who are not very happy about the idea.

arch the point is there where way more bots in 2007 as its near impossible to totaly eliminate them and the game has improved greatly since they got rid of wildy and earned many many awards.
most people voting for wildy (most not all) admit they have only come back for wildy and not played the game since 2007 which shows they have no seen how it has evolved without wildy and how its a better game now.
i think this update would be a smack i nthe face for people that satayed and where loyal to the game as its basicaly saying thanks for staying but we ae going to back down and let all the people that left and never carred have there way now.

Fredup,
Sure there were alot of botters before 2007, but that wasn't just the old trade limit/wilderness,
As i said, the bot detecting programms have improved over years, so don't just blame the old wilderness/trade.
As for the "people that didn't see runescape evolve", i've played at 2007 and now i'm still playing. I've seen it happen actually, and still i voted "yes" on the poll. Don't just put a stereotype, please.
Thanks for reading,
~Arch
Edit: As a Dutch person, I shouldn't be complaining about this, and no offense to you, but a little dot/comma or spelling check wouldn't harm. ;)

i dont see a problem with people who use bots thats how jagex make there sweet money cant get rid of it so may aswell just try and get along with it i havent seen a anything go wrong because of bots if people want to use bots they should be able to but they are the people who just sit looking at a moving screen allday whats the fun in that well i think that everyone should be legit but not every one has the same feeling about the way they play the game ;)

Archeoloog2 thats why i said most as in a large percentage not everyone so i wasnt labeling you.
and i kep hearing this the bot detection has improved but it stil dont make me think free trade would work theres way to many ways to cheat wit hfree trading and ways for merchants to make a fortune.
yes merchants use the grand exchange now and people cheat now but this update would give them a lot more ways to abuse the system now if jagex tld me how they plan to stop bots and realised a devopment diary about this and gave ne some good examples
i might change my mind but right now i still think it will make ti to easy for rwt and bots
p.s CORROPTION X is the 7th person i **en in 2 days on this thread that does not have/ see a problem with bots which is another resson im so worried.

Free trade is pretty important to me. The Grand Exchange is my favorite update, but it came with the worst one: the removal of free trade and the wilderness.
Also, I'd just like to throw it out there that I just signed up for members again after a 983-day break (can you guess which major update completely ruined the game in my eyes?) when I heard that free trade and the wilderness would be making a return.
As for "loyalty," it is not the customers who should be loyal to Jagex, but Jagex who should be loyal to their customers. I had my account for just about seven years when they took all my fun out of the game - why should I have continued to play a game that I did not enjoy?
I am not a botter, a RWTer, or someone's sixth account, and I voted for the return of free trade and the wilderness.
