I have been playing Runescape on and off for 6 years and I feel that the old wildy and free trade need to come back to make the game as great as it used to be.
1)Botting- I know many people who have used bots (btw I am against bots and I always report) and they seemed to have no problems transferring items or coins even with the trade limit.

2)The Wildy- The wilderness is supposed to be a place with great risks and great rewards. In my own experience I was killed by Revs way more times than I was ever killed other players. Its not like PKers will fill the wildy on every world, they will be spread thin.

3)FreeTrade- Jagex has done so much to protect players when trading, (showing the value of the trade, the red exclamation point when an item is removed, ect.), that most of the scams from the old days are obsolete. There have been many times where I have really needed an item and I have been willing to pay more than its worth but I have been restricted by the trade limit. I have also had many times where I have wanted to give a friend a gift but again was stopped by the trade limit. Getting rid of the limit is a move for the better.
I want to thank Jagex for allowing the players decide the future of this great game.
Vote Yes
Love

If you're supporting no to free trade, then you have my respect even though you oppose what I support. Honestly, why can't other no voters post something like that? Even if points are against what I believe, I can't do much but say something that's civil and respectful in return. Some people really could learn from you.
Anyway, skilling will likely make money again. If people were given an option of making money or losing money, most would take the option to make money. If I asked every player on RS if they'd rather be given 10 million gp or lose 10 million gp, most would rather gain. So therefore, I can take that people would rather make money from skilling than lose money from skilling. The fact that raw materials cost more than final products at this point, that's just ludicrous. It's the other way around, raw materials cost less than the final product and ought to do so too like they used to do before trade limits. Very rarely is that seen in real life and the proof lies in that electronics companies and such are not bankrupt. Raw materials being made into products requires skill levels. There are fewer people with the levels to (for example) catch and cook a shark in comparison to people who can't, so therefore doing things to create final products ought to be profitable once again.

"Johney - as right as you may think you are, you have not grasped all the consequences. 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. "

Trololololol
What do you mean "grasped all the consequences"? im not gona sit here and list every possible problem and a response to it when after 2 pages, no one will see it. Its a waste of time.
You must think im right in most regards for you to be telling me what I think.
Anyway, bones prices didnt go up because of a "guilded alter x update". Bone prices went up because of the add of new prayers.
With Soul Split and Turmoil being so high leveled, there was a drastic demand in bones, and lack of supply. Because of that bone prices continued to go up. Before then, bone prices werent worth much as far as i know.
KDB? People still went there back then, and they will continue going there now. Either way, who cares? before the visage and dfs, KDB wasnt worth killing.
D2H? again... who cares?
There was nothing wrong with the old wilderness, athough it was not perfect.
try to stop trolling.

This is something a little off topic about the wilderness.
When p'king comes back we would be able to kill there, correct i understand this.
But, here is a question. Why can't we thieve (at least on members worlds)?
Does anybody support expanding pvp (thieving)to the wildy as well?

"Oh and......Revs should stay. If you stand in one spot long enough they will come for a visit. Would deter pkers from camping out at known skiller/clue spots. Unless you prefer to kill something that cant fight back?
Wildy is supposed to be a dangerous place for everyone right?"
----
It would make no sence to keep revs as they were to replace the danger of pkers. With pkers turning to the wilderness, there is no need to keep revs.
Why does everyone pull clue scrolls into this dicussion?
- You DONT have to do level 3 clue scrolls
- items are more valuable if they're harder to obtain
- you already know the risk you run when entering the wilderness
stay out and you wont get killed.
