I've come to really not care anymore about the wilds comming back I got done everything I wanted to do in there and can avoid it since I really don't like pkers.
With free trade I still don't really care to see it come back I have learned to love the hands off approach that the ge provides, I've been in free trade and have done the hours apon hours of bank crawls hopping from one world to the next. The fixed market is in no way fixed, prices still have 10 and 15% increases and decreases in a weeks time it is based on supply and demand. For players that talk about there being a market for the mundane crap that clogs our banks that market is so small it's like finding a needle in a haystack untill you spend days on end trying to find a buyer for your crap you really shouldn't talk about what a great thing free trade is.
I've heard an excuse from many players "I can't wait for free trade I can get the items off my pure accounts onto my main and vise versa" Those of you thinking this are saddly mistaken. Read the game rules before you use this as your want for Free trade to return. It has in the past and still is a rule there can be no trading between accounts owned by a single player that includes "drop" trading, trading through a friend, or multi browser trading. They are bannable offenses and unless you are willing to risk loosing your best accounts I seriously recommend not doing this. If you wish to look at the official rule look in game rules "Multiple logging-in"

I should be an advocate for free trade because I know how to use it and I know how to use newbs to profit myself and make them feel happy but I'm very happy with the current system and I can do without taking advantage of newbs to keep it.
For anyone reading that doesn't know the old wilds here's how to work it. (1) only 3 items and food (2) turn off auto retaliate (3) never attack or retaliate against a pker, doing so will skull you and loose all your items instead of keeping 3

Haha they're bringing it back on a specific date that I'm not releasing to the public hehehe...
But yeah, I have noticed a general trend in people who are protesting this, about 90% of the population who are going against this idea are player who have never experienced this type of trading or "pking" before. The other 10% are just old "skillers" who don't care and are afraid of the prices when selling their things they have crafted and what not. I say that you go into more detail on everything that will be implemented into this update that I know for a fact will happen...
It's okay, I won't tell anybody when hehehe :D

@Heero1576 I just have this to say about that
Not everyone that voted yes is planning on getting their items off of their pures and giving it to their main.
As for the grand exchange it is staying where it is but you can put whatever price you want on somthing you sell in it so that arguement is usless.

Come back when you have read what Jagex has said instead of talking about somthing that you dont know anything about all that does is make you sound stupid.

I'm confused.
Okay, so I want to know how RWT affects other players. It's wrong and I see where people could get mad, but does it really affect your gaming? Just because someone obtained something differently than you does it just crush you that much that you would rant against it?
Get over yourself guys, because the more you talk about this, the more people will vote yes.
If you think the Wilderness should stay, your obviously new, I swear to god.
And hating against the free trade system? LOL
"OMG don't bring back the trade system Jagex, my friend's gonna transfer his earnings to a new account, lord forbid."
Why should it be wrong to give things away if you wanted to? It's not your guys' choice and you should leave it alone, you are the voice of one, do not speak for others in this debate.
P.S. Can't wait for this update!

Quick REPLY,
please, someone of importance preferably a player/Jagex mod, please read this regarding untradable items.
I am a 17 yr old lvl 115 pker and I have been playing since 2004. If the wilderness is to become virtually a copy of 2006 pking, then the untradable items i.e. firecape, defenders, torsos, gloves (barrows, rune, etc) should become available to the players who lost them. It's part of the fun --> rushing back into the wilderness to pick up your lost (hard to get) items with the fear of a mage freezing you. It is exhilirating and it **es not make pking unfair for people who do not have those items and have to substitute with something loseable such as a rune plate or rune kite. The fact that pkers are willing to "risk" their items which they strived for should be acknowledged. IF the item is an untradable it should be visible on the ground to whom it belonged. REGARDING CLUE SCROLLS: I believe that when a player dies with "clue scroll, watch, sextant, or chart, those items should be dropped where the player died with a gravestone Just LIKE dying out side of the wilderness. Only those three items are allowed to be replaced w/ the gravestone. If the player carries other items along with the clue scroll, those are attained by the pker just as normal items; however, the clue scroll would be located underneath a grave for the designated amount of time due to the player's gravestone status-- whether the player paid extra to get a better gravestone, or somebody blesses the gravestone. ******IN REGARDS TO S T A K I N G-----***** chaotic wepons should have an optional slot where players can check that slot on or off. Staking was always meant to be done with a whip, and sure whip pkers fight chaotics, but in a 1v1 with no armour or pots or food? That's completely unfair! A checkable slot would be greatly appreciated by the RS community based off of the forums articles i have read regarding the issue. I hope everybody takes the time to read this. Thanks!

I did read what jagex said, in a free market the ge will be more or less useless. All a player has to do is check prices and underbid everyone that post the same items in the GE. Say you are looking for an item in bulk, it's in the GE but a player next to the ge is offering the same item in bulk for less. Who's items do you think are going to sell. In a free trade world the seller must take a hands on approach if they want to activly sell their things.
Little kids should be in bed right now, think about what you are reading and see that I wasn't adressing everyone lumping them in the same group. I was only saying that I have heard it from many players not all that are voting yes it's near impossible for me to talk to 900,000+ players I don't have the time or desire I was mearly stating it for those that want to use it like that.

@Heero1576
OK I tried to be nice but your just that stupid.
Heero your just using the same washed up arguement* that have failed over and over again look at the damn poll why am I even debating you we win already 90% > 7% or did you forget your 2nd grade math and yes there will still be a grand exchange unless your right and it becomes useless and if it becomes useless why complain on that if it becomes useless thats just the gaming community choosing not to use it.
ANYONE WHO IS AGAINST FREE TRADE AND THE WILDERNESS IS EITHER NEW OR A COMPLETE IDIOT HEERO1576 I DONT KNOW WHICH YOU ARE BUT BY THE WAY YOU ARE TALKING YOU SOUND LIKE AN IDIOT!

I'm not complaining about clues lol i'm just saying if Jagex is to use the "CLUE SCROLL ARGUMENT" in any way against the renewal of the old wilderness, that is one proposal for a solution. It's easy and maybe something that Jagex wan'*s to look at as an alternative for p*ssys that are afraid to bring their clue scroll into the wildernes, log on to a world with barely anybody and go into the wilderness.
AND I HATE REVENENTS WITH A BURING PASSION.... THEY ARE THREE HUNDRED TIMES MORE ANOYING THAN ANY FARCASTER PKER AND THEIR RANGE OF ATTACK IS REDICULOUS. PLEASE DON'T RELOCATE THESE THINGS, SHUN THEM AND GET RID OF THEM!
