"As far as pkers not looking for an easy kill you are obviously a newb that has never seend the old wilds or you are a newb that can't remember the old wilds." -Heero1576

when did i ever say pkers arent not looking for an easy kill..? please, quote me on that one.

"I made my point by walking into a pvp world no armor no invintory and stood there only to find people attack me for nothing more than the fact I am there defenseless. Yelling "ownt" how can you own someone that doesn't bother to fight back? Explain that line of thinking, go ahead make yourself sound smart defending those players." - Heero1576
^
So... your saying because you walked into the wilderness and died, so that proves your point. what point are you trying to make there? If your in a pvp/pk area, you can expect to die. reguardless of having items or not. If your not in the wilderness to fight or defend yourself, then stay out. Its that simple. - Heero1576

"The majority of pkers that are made known or have the biggest voice are the pkers that have no respect for their fellow players. There isn't honor among the players of old that spent their entire game life in the wilds. Pkers have and always will look for the easy kill you need to think real hard if you are a vetrane player, if not stop trolling and copying everyone's forum post to make yourself seem intelligent." - Heero1576

your mad, but im troll'n? nice one. Seriously guy? its just a game. calm down and dont cry over lost pixels.
Honor? who cares about honor?
Respect for thier fellow players? Hell yeah. Thats something you know nothing about.
Pkers form bonds with one another, finding out who in your group stays and dies with you to the very end, or who cowards out and leaves everyone else to die. There is teamwork involved and the feeling of trust between fellow players. Pking brings players closer together than you can imagine. Come pk with me sometime, ill show you what I mean.

Although tbh, i should stop copying word from word what other people say. simply because it crowds up forums.
I mostly do it just for anyone who just start reading, to understand what it is that im replying to.

Johney525,
For the record, I voted in favor of bringing back free trade and the wildy. Personally, I have no interest in pking. But I support bringing back the old wildy because I know tons of players loved it. I'm mostly interested in bringing back free trade.
And relax. You don't have to convince anyone. The vote is going 90% in favor of bringing back free trade and the wildy--and with almost 1M votes in, that's not going to change.
Short version: Jagex is gonna bring back the old wildy, so you don't have to worry about it.
So let's be honest about pkers.
It was extremely common for pkers to troll the wildy looking for skillers, cluers, questers, and defenseless players and killing them for the fun of it and for the possibility of a profit from the drops. They also hung out at common spots where these activities required players to go. Rune rocks is another example. And the mage bank. Etc.
RC pkers would magically appear in any world that had a significant number of abyss rcers. Why? Because the pkers would hang out at the ZM, and if there weren't rcers in the world they happened to be in, they'd hop until they found a world with rcers.
In particular, they hung out on any world where a company or an individual high-level rcer was hiring runners.
I spent hundreds of hours hiring runners at the nat altar, both solo and in companies, so I know how this worked. There would be pker reports, and runners that we crafters would give preference to because they were poisoned and almost dead from having been attacked by a pker. And we'd hear from the ones who didn't make it.
Am I complaining?
No.
Players knew the wildy was dangerous, and you just had to take your risk if you *anted to do anything in the wildy.
I'm simply stating facts.
In the old wildy, pkers commonly killed skillers and other players that they saw as easy targets.
And they'll do it again when (not if) Jagex brings back the old wildy.

Its kinda funny to see people arguing about abyss and runecrafting trough it since when i used to play back in 2005/2006 there was abyss crafters AND pkers and we used to craft normally avoiding them and we would be happy runecrafting, now theres 2-3 more ways of runecrafting without the abyss and they are even easier and faster and new players are complaining about wild coming bck because they ill have to face pkers?That is lame, get used to it, you guys that didnt played back in 2006 are too used with how easy runescape got and dont want your little paradise to turn into a challenging game, guess what, you all will be facing vicious pkers that went on hiatus since 2006 and now comes in full force, in all its glory and bloodlust.All i wish to 2008/2010 players *hat didnt had the experience of old wild and are complaining about losing pixels to pkers.
Good Luck, you all will need.

Let me ask you this, what point is there to killing a player that doesn't defend themselves? what is the point in yelling "ownt" while you kill someone that doesn't bother to put up a fight? Can you explain how a pkers mind works when they get their jollies off thinking they are gods greatest gift to a game killing someone that does nothing for you?
Please explain what fun and exciting can be had in hunting someone that looks at you, laughs, and feels nothing but pitty for you and your meaningless existance while you think your some bigshot for killing them.
Pkers have a world where they can do all the pking they want, you all complain it's no fun, why? Why is there no fun fighting with other players who share your views? Why is the excitment of pking lost when you can't kill players that arn't interested in pvp? Why is the fun lost when newbies don't wander into your world to look around? These are easy questions, please explain it to me I enjoy a game as a way to relax, an escape from reality. Why can't I be entitled to voicing my opinion even if it's not the popular opinion?
You think yourself a big man repeating the same thing that many pvp lovers have said in the past. None have actualy answered my questions just some little rant about a player being a newb for not enjoying pvp.
Please if you think yourself so smare address my questions instead of calling me stupid and a newb for not viewing the game as a big pvp game.

I see no point in the added danger to the wilderness if there is no reward that comes with it. Revs waste food, weapon supplies, and time.
Revs hit 20+ with mage, range, melee. They die and drop nothing.
A player hitting 20+ with mage, range, melee. They die and drop armour + weapons.
Rev can be seen as dangerous, but they're more of an annoying than anything.
