This is not a poll. This looks like a dictatorial regime where you can only vote 'yes'. So please allow the people who are against the return of the old wildy to give their vote too.
Also please make two votes: one for return of wildy and another for return of free-trade. Maybe even gradation
Stongly against it, against it, any-way, in favor, highly in favor.
Now on the topics:
1) return of old wildy
I am absolutely against it. The revenants make the wildy a bit dangerous but it is a calculatable risk that you take.
However, you cannot protect you to people/groups that have all day to lay in ambush and snipe people. People who only strive to kill other players. This is a game intended to let people have fun. Give pk-ers a pk-world like it exists now and there they can kill each other.
If old wildy returns, I will just simply drop all lvl 3 and lvl 4 scrolls that I get.
2) free trade
I am now used with the GE. That works reasonable fine. Also return of free trade is fine. Maybe a combination of both is also nice: the same limits +/- 10% of mid-value as limit. A possibility to allow bigger differences in person-to-person trade is fine for me. If someone wants to give twice the money for an item, fine for me. If I want to give something away, now this is limited. For rare items people now use tricks like junk-trade. I am against that kind of manipulations of the rules, so I don't do junk trade. But if people negociate a price outside GE limits, that is fine for me. Only it would be nice that there is a protection against scamming !
Enjoy your Xmas holidays.

Mod Mark.
I demand an answer.
Why are you destroying runescape? WHY?
I don't want an answer like "we're just listening to the people!"
No. No you're bloody not.
Since we're having a vote... How about a vote for the worst jagex team for coming up with ideaS?
The team who made this will surely win.

Like others have mentioned...I was expecting options on this poll XD However, I'm still in favor of returning things to the way they once were. Of course, you'll have people talking about the scammers in free trade. Isn't that why Jagex created the value meter at the bottom of every trade? That meter is there to show the value of trade items in comparison with another offer.

The wilderness is also dealt with. When did people whine back in the day when they had to welfare to get to their wilderness clue scrolls. It just makes things more challenging (fun) for the players.

10/10 SUPPORT FOR FREE TRADE/OLD WILDY!

Don't reary care about the wildi, Trade limit is pointless, thats basicly asking for more hacks to be evented to steal pass = more work for you stopping the ungratefull hackers instead of updating / making a better future to honest players, id accept free unlimited trade on friends who have been added for 3months OR you could fill out your recovery questions to turn a switch ON or OFF for you to have unlimited trading.
p.s even though there is a second trade screen some players will be so happy to get something, they wont notice that the other player has swapt/taken money or an iterm away in the trade.
Merry Christmas & Happy New Year,

I must say, I didn't believe my eyes when I first read this..
Are JaGeX truly succumbing to the gold-farmers in the never-ending-war against Real World Trading?
This is outrageous!!
Now, don't get me wrong here, I used to be a big fan of the old wilderness and I always enjoyed giving friends gifts..
But this would not only destroy all the work JaGeX has done with the grand exchange and so on, but the result would be a MASSIVE increase in bots et cetera.

One word:
NO! :@

I feel that Jagex has waited far too long to implement this. By now, there are so many things you can do in the wildy. Going to fist of guthix is going to be nearly impossible now, and for all the members, clue scrolls, and lighting pyres. I do like the old wilderness system though, as it was a lot of fun. I also pray we keep the GE, just because it makes it so much better. I remember that years ago, before the updates that implemented this, I had to pay 14k (which was worth more then too) for an Adamant two-hand sword due to the nearly non-existent supply. I hope though they show you how much what you are trading is worth to kill insane merchanting, and scams. The lack of a NO option, is a signal to me that Jagex WILL be implementing this no matter what. In addition, since you don't need to put ********* in to vote, one can simply put every name in their friend list in. Furthermore, they seem to have all the content made already, and if this is really a poll and it didn't pass, they would have wasted weeks. More or less, I think Jagex is trying to fabricate a democratic decision. Of course, there is such high and overwhelming support, I believe that even with a poll this would pass easily, so in the end I believe that this isn't too bad. If this isn't fabricated, (which based on Jagex's record, isn't) then I think this poll was VERY badly thought out.
