I usually don't reply to anything but for this certain update I just have to throw my opinion in.
Many people on this forum had lots to say but wasn't really thinking of what they were actually saying, for instance a number of people said they don't want free trade but they do want the old wilderness back. Then wouldn't people go to the wild and get killed by the account there transferring to? Also for those of you who want free-trade, the only reason you guys want free trade is so you can give a present to your friend? What happens when you don't have anything else to give, wouldn't it just be like what you guys do right now?. The Old Wilderness and Free-Trade work hand-in-hand that is why Jagex did it in one project.
If you really want one to come back make a sacrifice of bringing the other back along with it.
Now for those of you who think you know it all about RWTrader's and Botters.
Today as we speak there are people RWTrading, Jagex didn't stop that at all, they just slowed down the process of doing it. With botting, Jagex say they have newer tech. to track down the botters, how does bringing back the old wild and free-trade make that become easier for botters? They admitted themselves they could never stop cheating, just imagine this. Runescape has about 1M+ people playing, now just think 400,000 of those people are botting and Jagex can't reset people's stats if thier innocent. It's tough that's why it's such a hard thing to do. It just can't be stopped. Theres no such thing as a perfect game, there will always be botters,hackers,and RWTrader's its like life. There is no good without evil.
Now for my own opinion on bringing it back or not. I vote "YES" for both. I am a pker and also a skiller. I remember the "good ole days" when you were scared to get a scroll so you would call your cousin or someone to back you up. I remember cheering for joy when getting that persons whip Runescape's old wilderness is THE ONLY LEGIT PLAYER VS PLAYER better than WOW
