@thy Ishy
Exactly my point. You can't get lured via some idiot clicking to trade and running into the wilderness now. If someone is in the wilderness now, they now have accepted the risk of getting killed. If they were too impatient to have read the warnings and somehow missed the bloody big wall that they had to click and jump over, it's their own fault when they get killed and lose their items.
Protecting stupid people from their own stupidity is not the object of this game. These new kids are too used to having RS on easy mode and a silver platter. Having to finally risk something in order to get fast exp in some skills is something that'll really be alien to them. No wonder some of the new kids are crying about free trade and old wilderness; they'll finally have to experience real danger and challenge (as opposed to rushing someone wearing pathetic armour in pvp worlds and getting a perfect who knows what in rc exp via Abyss safely.), a concept which is alien to their bubble wrapped gaming experience on RS. People who do lose their items this way due to their incompetence will learn very quickly to read warnings and to be patient.

Johney - as right as you may think you are, you have not grasped all the consequences. I started playing in 04 (my stats are low because i was 12 and I took breaks occasionally). Have you considered prayer? I remember farming drags before 08, and i lost money because of green drag pkers. I didn't mind pking at all, and i did do it a fair bit on pures and things like that, but dragon bones were out of the question back then.
Lets think. Before gilded altar X update, d bones were 1.1k
Currently they are 5k.
If there is not still pvp worlds, I suspect them to rise to at least 7k at most 10k per bone.
Do you remember luring? If not, youtube Jojo3000. The wilderness was easier to scam in than the banks for most scammers.
KBD will be re-deserted as well.
D2hs will once again be impossible to buy because chaos elememtal farming will once again be near impossible.
Don't act like old RS wildy was perfect. Sure, its better than BH worlds and PVP worlds stupid EP and DP.

My only guess is you are planning to RWT or lure, because if you weren't you wouldn't bash on people's opinions like you do.

I don't see why people are so worried about luring. Jagex will most likely leave the wilderness ditch in place to prevent that from happening. And if people are stupid enough to follow lures then they shouldn't be playing an "adult" game as Jagex would call it.

Yes but lots of yes voters have the same opinion as Johney, like me. Doesn't mean he does it either. O_o
Edit:Can you show me some kind of proof that you were here around 2004?
