old wilderness would mean the wild would be over run by the maxed players always killing the lower leved players, thus not allowing the poor in either skill, money, or both to actually survive there. also there are many players who arent interested in pking so much, and then the less skilled pkers would lose all of their hard earned wealth to the **ronger people, but say you do manage to kill your attacker, well then here comes another one ready to kill you while you are still weak from your last fight. why not keep pking worlds except allow the players items to be dropped on there. alot of people will get angry they lose all their hard earned gear, just because someone manage to get them. so basically nobody can go in the wilderness for the monster respawns that happen their simply because groups of other players are waiting everywhere to kill them. not as many people going to kill bork everyday, or use the dungeons in the wilderness, or many of the other content scattered throughout the wilderness, because of the danger of pkers.
with free trade, wealth means nothing if you have friends willing to give you extreme amounts of money to let you get ahead of people who dont have those kinds of friends, people would attempt more multiple logins in order to build up their accounts with the money they earned on 1 of their accounts. who needs the grand exchange when you can just get stuff for free from your friends. this combined with the pking would cause all the rs money to go to the strong players, while the weak players remain weak, and mostly likely eventually just quit the game altogether.
without the threat of pkers being on every world, players can experience the entire runescape world, including any future content planned for where the wilderness is.
and what about demonheim, and dungeoneering? it is in the wilderness isnt it? along with thw wildy agility course, mage arena, chaos elemental especially, including many quests the have you going into the wild.
