First off: I do agree with everyone else that the voting page is flawed. You should be able to choose one or both of the options, and have the chance to say yes or no to either of them. Maybe you should have actually put it in the polls, instead of giving it an entire page of it's own.
On the same note, I would appreciate bringing back the free trade option. However, bringing back the wilderness pvp to every world isn't something I want, since there are several things in the wilderness (such as red and green dragons) that are hard enough to get to without being attacked by other players. Maybe if you brouth both of these back on certain worlds, or something.

ok i have a great idea guys. this will benefit not just one group, but MOST of us.
1. the old pking style will be on "20" seperate runescape worlds.
2. you can decide with the person you are trading with if there will be a 10k limit or if it is a free trade.
3. the grand exchange will stay on all worlds. including the old rs pking worlds
4.pvp and bounty hunter worlds will be in their worlds, so if you like bh u can go to that world wen u log in.
if you think wat im saying copy this and post it.

i vote no to old wildy but open free trade up to your long term friends because its annoying when say a fellow clan member or old friend wants to give you something and you have to put up enough junk to counteract it, thats where i stand =P

I would love to have free trade
but i think we should keep current wilderness on certain worlds for treasure trails and minigames as said before ;) :) ;) :P :( :| O_o :D ^_^ :O :@

I have to say first of all, a poll is a great idea.
However, you're asking players to vote for two things but it must be a yes for both or a no for both. This raises a problem as a huge section of the Runescape community want one but not the other.
My own opinion is that while I'd love to see free trade return, I'm not so sure about the "old wildy" - at least not on all worlds.
What follows is a copy and paste of a post I recently made on another thread on this subject outlinine why the "old" wildy shouldn't come back the same way as before.
---------------------------
There are many more wildy-based activities than there were in the "olden days".
The Beacon Network - this requires both high and low level wildy access
Penguin Hunting - again both high and low level wildy access required
Falling Stars - see above for wildy access
Not to mention a fair few newer quests which are either wildy centred or require trips to the wildy.
And this is all apart from the activities which were already in the wildy before it was de-hostilised (is that a word?) like runecrafting, ghostly robes, mining, green dragons, clues etc.
Personally, if people want the "old" wildy back, I say let them have it - but not on all worlds. There has to be somewhere for people to pursue the many other activities the wildy has to offer and if they choose to do so without the prospect of being offed by a gang of PKers, that should be an option. Others will enjoy the thrill of PVP mixed in with their regular activities - fine, let them have it but there are as many people against being PKed as there are for it - we all love this game and we all want to play it so ideally, there has to be a compromise between both camps.
~M~
I can't remember if I'm the good twin or the evil one

Seems like Jagex already has this planned. Not sure why they have posted this totally biased poll format except for PR, I guess?
Why bring back wild and free trade though without removing the noob risk reduction that were added to the game like no graves, cs, and item lend? Get rid of all the silly warning etc.
This will not return RS to as it was before because there is still very little risk in the game. This is meant to appease a small group of players and increase playership so please don't say you want to make the game what it once was like. It isn't even close, even when you make this change (C'mon, do you think we are stupid?)
