first of all I Voited a BIG YES,
i know a lot of people want it back and some other want it rather to stay, but my guess is that most old rs players want it back it used to be.

about wildy
- keep some free wildy worlds, couse: u can keep doing clue's, u cant be scammed due taking (luring somethin to wildy) and then new starting rs players won't be annoyed couse of investigating runescape. like i wanted when i started i got killed with everything i had couse i diddnt know i could die. so keep some world like this so any one can discover his own way all of rs.
about free trade-
it's good for new players although u never can stop rwt,
but when i started it was nice if i got 10(that was like 200k nowadays) now every advanced player can help one another out by giving any kind of wepon or some cash to help an other player out, that makes a game more enjoyable but still you will always face a big issue call rwt,scamming
never the less i still voited a BIG YES couse i remember how more fun it was back in those day's....
(my opinion)
PS: any reply or comments are welcome but DON'T COMMENT on my writing foults couse i know there will be many :P
Greetz and have fun :D

I was saying don't die as in people don't risk and fight. they hide and ep, then find someone to trick with.
even without dp, you have the chance of getting some kind of money. More than 25k even with as low as 25% ep. Usually EPers go for somewhere 50%+ then get there dp from someone killing them while they trick.

wil someone please read this :-
its pretty clear that wildy and free tradewill come based on all the votes
but im still against it
why you ask well I have played runescape before and after free trade and its a lot easier to buy things now than it was when people can charge what they want.
sure the g.e will help things and it will be betetr than before but if people don't like the g.e price they will just go to free trade which could end up making the g./e redundant?
as for the wilderness people cant understand why I hate this so much when I oppenly admit I used to be a player killer and I even used to stake santa hats in the duel arena.
Well its kind of simple I prefer worlds for pk and worlds for people that want to skill
and befroe you say it yes i know the pk worlds dont give enought reward so please read on
I like the idea of questers and skillers being able to do it in piece if they want to but i also love the fact if there risky the can wear brawler gloves in pk worlds to get more experience.
and i dont understand why instead of detleting all the player killing worlds they don't jsut change them a bit so they have the new wilderness in them and if someone kills you when your wearing full dragon they get you full dragon .
also instead of brawler gloves anyone skilling in a player killer world could get twice as much experience as standard to incourage people to take a risk and go in.
I belive if they did this they wouldnt have to rearrange half the maps as peopple skilling who dont want to take a risk could play in the old wildy worlds and people that claim they like this risk of wilderness could go in the player killing worlds and get more experience and both parties would be happy?

The introduction of Bounty Hunter and the new "Wildy" has done more damage to the Runescape economy than botting has. The new wild, while providing a gold sink for the Runescape economy, allows for exploitation through unstoppable glitches. The new changes have not stopped botters in anyway shape or form. Go to aubury and see for yourself. Gold trading is still prominent among players. The trade limit has only delayed the time spent performing the trades. Jagex will never be able to stop the botting or RWT. It's prominent in every MMO game out which allows for trade. The trade limits restricted the growth of items values based on the speed in which people wish *o purchase the items. By simply plugging in an approximate amount of money and leaving it for an extended period of time you neglect the value of time to buyers.

Another option would just be to release a cash shop into RuneScape then anybody who got scammed out of their stuff would be responsible for it because they bought it from an non Runescape shop lots of other games have these and the players dont mind as long as the prices arent so cheap that they crash the market...

I LOVE THE FREE TRADE TY JAGEX!!!!!!!!

@jonhey525 first off i did generalize but am i wrong about 50%? 40%? mebbe 30% but i doubt there are 30% of pkers who are not going to take a garunteed kill with no risk.
and shut up about rwt and botters? i understand that botting for skills/lvls means nothing to you but to ppl like me who play for rank the skilling bots mean alot.
and as far as jagex coming anywhere close to shutting down 1% of botting even with the "insert lie" new bot detection i laugh.
im sorry but as a player that has achieved higher total skills and exp than you on this account in less than 2 years im sorry if i dont respect any of your opinion.

I understand the changes will affect people far and wide who play Runescape. There was such a difference between then and now though. Go through the forums since 2007 and you'll come to see just how many players have quit the game as a result of the changes to the trade system, wild, and dueling. The current system isn't working to combat what it was meant to and reverting to the old will result in a growth of the Runescape population. No more getting into world 2 easily anymore, and say hello to Fally park again

Well the vote is approaching the 1 million mark!
Who cares if 70% of the votes are being cast by non-hiscores listed accounts and are likely botting and RWT accounts just getting "ready to roll".
It's the easy access to gps and items that's really important here!
Wow, just think, never have to work on those stupid skilling levels for gold ever again.
Keep the votes coming!

i have just looked through 300 pages on this subject.. the only thing i can say is if there bringing back free trade and wildly think they should make there decision fast, cause in the 300 pages i have read there has not been a jmod or forms mode to respond only hide coments.. and the drama that is going on is enough now. Tempers flaring, and remarks made only to flare tempers ppl wanting to fight others in duel arena and plain out disrespecting others..
i agree with some it will bring back the scamers and the real world trading. 1 good thing about that is it will give the p mods more to do again.. how to stop the scamers and rwt,, maybe they can put lvl's on reports like scaming, rwt, personal info, threating to harm them selfs get looked at right away. Dosent mater if it is a p mod or a regular player that sends in the report. while other offences looked at asap.

Fred, you still won't give up bro. You havent played before free trade. You're a little noob trying to act like a pro. Think of everything you've done in runescape and I've done it and more. You don't believe in free trade? That is a civil liberty guaranteed in many governing documents in the world. Why not in runescape? Grow up you little moron. You don't no crap about this game. You haven't been where old school players have been, so shut the hell up about something u do not know about it.
