I dont understand why some people are against free trade and the wild. The grand exchange isn't going anywhere so if your stupid enough to get scammed, dont take it out on the people who originally played runescape from the start. PKing and free trade were part of what made this game great. Restrictions on both of these took the fun out of the game. It's easy to prevent both of these so why not just vote yes? And I beg to differ for those who say "just go to bh or pvp...there exactly the same..." I want to be able to kill other players for THEIR loot, not no 5k sardines and antipoisons. It's about time they brang wildy and free trade back because it turned away so many customers. Hopefully there will be no flaws because you cant restrict the wilderness to 2-4 worlds.

Since the introduction of the trade limit + GE, the game has gone downhill.
First off, I absolutely hate the concept of junk trading. You'd have to spend hours upon hours to acquire enough junk in order to make a "fair trade". In the Treasure Trail update a few months ago, I was lucky and got an Armadyl Page on a clue. Unfortunately, it was worth a measly few hundred thousand gp in the Grand Exchange, and 5M-ish street. Fortunately for me, I had made a bad trade earlier, and ended up with about 3M worth of Broodoo shields. I ended up selling the page for 3.5M...(all the junk i could find in my bank) but was ripped off 1.5M in the process.
PLEASE BRING BACK FREE TRADE!

Junk trading is the most dumb thing I have found since the time I stopped playing.
Seriously, WHY would you trade 10m+ worth of junk that will take you days to sell. Free Trade was WAYYYY better.
Say someone just pk'ed full rune set, they would sell it for 150k or 135k then I would sell it for 200k
Same with dragon weapons or any "clue" dropped item.
Everyone knew the prices of items, because if you didn't you would get ripped off whatever item you were buying / selling.
Make no mistake, some people did sell items under price because they wanted fast money. This is where I came in, and bought "cheap" items all day then sold em for "regular" or "higher" price*
*** made it possible for merch clans to take COMPLETE control of the economy. And you know what happens when you give power to someone that has money. They become even more powerful and wealthy. You wonder why prices rise out of nowhere, well... because people are making money out of you.

The People and the Players of RuneScape are all correct on all levels. I would prefer to have the wild and free trade back. I would like the wild back for the fun that it was, and free trade so i can give large gifts to my friends and receive them.
Maybe Jagex can have several worlds for the wild to separate what some like and what others don't, perhaps they can do that with free trade as-well.
With free trade there will be a mass number of bots created to produce gold farmers, so what if Jagex can create a system to monitor the amount of money flowing through trade. Their are so many ways to detect bots Jagex just needs to find the right one.

I really hope the old wilderness comes back along with free trade!!
