hello people, i've joined runescape like 7-8 years ago. Back in the days, it was too much fun and exciting! Why...? Because of the old wilderness and free trade limit. I know I know it prevents scamming etc... but at least there were challenges: for example am i going to be attacked by a player whilist doing a clue scroll; am i going to get there safetly? Nowadays, it is so easy to achieve things, accomplish goals because there are no challenges! You can go wherever you want without getting worried of the outcomes. I don't know about you but for my case, i play games because of the obstacles that are in the way. What is there to do if there aren't anything exciting, it's pretty much routine right now, and by the way that is the reason why i have stopped playing since 2008... there aren't anymore challenges!
All in all, it is definilty a "yes" for me and i hope they bring back the wilderness and trading back like in the old days.
Peace out ^^

Im not a runecrafter but when i have its challenging enough to deal with revs and abyss monsters when you get less than 500xp a trip.
Pkers (from my experience) pick soft easy targets (playground bully syndrome?) and hunt in packs. Whys that then? Too much of a wimp to fight a player who is packed to defend?
Back in the "good old days" when i did use the abyss and got attacked from the hill i would go back to deal with them. Invariably they did a runner.
More than happy for pkers to have their own world where they can pillage and plunder to their hearts content. Fine if you want to test your combat skills against others with the same intent who are willing to risk whatever they are packing. Some of us prefer to get our jollies by other means.

You must have been the soft easy target because when i pk i go for valuables. It's also much more satisfactory to earn a kill with valuable items.
Don't let a few bad experiences ruin something that will make the game great again.

Wow... I can't believe they're considering bringing it back. I'm not saying it's bad, I think it's a great idea! I just thought it would always be out of the question...
Definitely gets a yes vote from me, it's a step towards returning Runescape to its former glory, back in the good days.
Newer players don't know what they missed out on.
