I think plenty of people have seen what you typed, but as the vote suggests, most people disagree with you. prices for everything will probably remain stable. I can't guarantee that, but I don't see them rising out of control. If anything will cause prices to rise, it would be the ease of merching clans to buy mass quantities at the grand exchange, which is a shame, because the GE is nice to have.

@living rival, you're stupid. People are voting yes cause they hate change. And for you people that started playing in the past year or so, you're voting no because you hate change. You don't want rs to change from the way it is now, just like we didn't want rs to change 3 years ago. We're voting yes to remove the mistake Jagex did 3 years ago.

I am really ****** that Jagex decides to bring the old wilderness and free trade back. You know why, because when they first took away free trade and old wildy they just did it without really discussing the situation (such as a poll) and I know A LOT of people who quit runescape that day because they took old wildy and free trade out and brought in some dumb thing called "Bounty Hunter".
I am a HUGE fan of old wildy and free trade. In my opinion (take it from someone who actually played back then)Runescapes was 10x better because there was actually reasons for this game. So i am now here 3 and half years later (dont know exact date) voting YES for free trade and old wildy back.
Another thing that dont think was mentioned.
Old Wilderness - Just like back in the day you won't have a skull once you step in the wilderness (means you will keep 3 of ur most valuable items)...instead to get a skull you will have to engage someone in battle first (atck them first) then you will be skulled and lose all of your items if you die.
You might be thinking hahaha i will never get skulled and just bring 3 of my best items and get kills :D . WRONG if the person your about to fight is smart he will tell you to attack you first and/or attack some1 else to get skulled.
Also no more EP!!!! YES!!! AND.....NO MORE GARBAGE LOOTS!!
It actually does make sense if you kill the person you will get ALL of there items instead of just depending on how much "EP" you have which i love!!

Many people on this forum had lots to say but wasn't really thinking of what they were actually saying, for instance a number of people said they don't want free trade but they do want the old wilderness back. Then wouldn't people go to the wild and get killed by the account there transferring to? Also for those of you who want free-trade, the only reason you guys *ant free trade is so you can give a present to your friend? What happens when you don't have anything else to give, wouldn't it just be like what you guys do right now?. The Old Wilderness and Free-Trade work hand-in-hand that is why Jagex did it in one project.
If you really want one to come back make a sacrifice of bringing the other back along with it.
Now for those of you who think you know it all about RWTrader's and Botters.
Today as we speak there are people RWTrading, Jagex didn't stop that at all, they just slowed down the process of doing it. With botting, Jagex say they have newer tech. to track down the botters, how does bringing back the old wild and free-trade make that become easier for botters? They admitted themselves they could never stop cheating, just imagine this. Runescape has about 1M+ people playing, now just think 400,000 of those people are botting and Jagex can't reset people's stats if thier innocent. It's tough that's why it's such a hard thing to do. It just can't be stopped. Theres no such thing as a perfect game, there will always be botters,hackers,and RWTrader's its like life. There is no good without evil.
Now for my own opinion on bringing it back or not. I vote "YES" for both. I am a pker and also a skiller. I remember the "good ole days" when you were scared to get a scroll so you would call your cousin or someone to back you up. I remember cheering for joy when getting that persons whip. Runescape's old wilderness is THE ONLY LEGIT PLAYER V PLAYER system. no other game had it like we did back in 06-07. Enough said.

I can't wait for old wildy and free trade to be back!! This is the most exciting thing that runescape has done since they got rid of the wildy! I quit for year when wildy got taken away. Then played BH for a while, but it just wasnt as good, so i quit again. But when i saw that wildy is coming back, i automatically made my account a member to train! I told all my friends that used to play and they're getting back into it too! Runescapes making a comeback!

@void It's too soon to tell. True, this descision is based on the amount of voters, HOWEVER, Jagex gets the final say. It could still be plausible that they can go back on their word for any reason. According to someone's rumor, it'll take "4 million votes to fully comfirm it 100%". Never the less, I don't care on the wilderness anymore. At least all the important stuff will be relocated.

I put probably in caps because it implies doubt. You are doubtful, whether con*iously, or subconciously. You don't know that for fact, so we both have doubt.
