I honestly can't believe what I am reading.
These are my opinions so don't flame like a 12 year old.
1) The limiting of trade and the removal of the wilderness was the most detrimental move that Jagex made in history.
2) The game has suffered considerably enough for the new management to "consider" bringing back the old game.
3) Old school players such as myself agree that the old runescape was far superior.
4) People that are complaining about RWT and the lot are wasting their time. There are still just as many RWT gold selling websites as there were in the past. E.G you can google "runescape g" and tons of gold selling sites appear on the suggestion bar.
5) Those that are mentioning getting scammed and taken advantage of need to be more wary of what they are doing and not fall for some guy wanting to "buy your armour for 1m" its an obvious scam. And besides there is a little button that I'm sure everyone has forgotten about; its called the "report" button. Try it some time and quit complaining.
I have played this game for years until recently (the start of this limiting nonsense) I quit playing runescape and went for other mmorpg games such as 2moons or lotro. These other games are not limited and they are prospering just fine.
Jagex should take the example of other mmo's and instead of hunting down rwt websites, sell their own gold for example.
E.G have a "JaGeX" store that allows characters to buy items/gold in the game like lotro and wow do.
Anways enough rambling, the point is that the updates were a mistake, and its taken JaGeX too long to fix it. So much time passing has made players complacent. Players have forgotten the anger and frustration that arose shortly after the updates, and the old school players (myself included) have never stopped petitioning for the old Runescape to resurface. Now that we are getting what we want, don't ruin it.
Oh and before anyone forgets, these updates that were aimed at punishing bad players also punish the good.

I'm sick of seeing all these people crying about not being able to enter the wilderness anymore or getting scammed etc. You know what I think? I think you need to l2p because I can name hundreds of reasons why it should come back and none why it shouldn't.
Let me explain:
People used to get on fine in the wilderness doing clue scrolls etc, it was very rare you would come across a pker, only in the known pking worlds (old W18 etc). All you idiots that have either never played when the old wilderness was around or are completely moronic need to stop thinking that every world will be flooded with pkers camping every single place possible in the wilderness. It was never like that, even with the small amount of worlds that used to be available. There's over double the worlds now.
The other issue is scamming. How about you use your brain and think hmm this doesn't seem right, someone asking me to go near the wilderness with my valueables. How about don't go and look for another buyer. Jesus christ it isn't rocket science. It's about time gaming companies stop catering for noobs, they ruin every game in the end.
The new wilderness loot system is an absolute joke, being able to pk 10m from someone in 75k gear and pking 10k from someone in 75m gear is just unbelieveable. It's about time it went back to the way it used to be.
2003-2007. Bring it on.

What's with all the arrogant All-knowing PK'ers and all the All-knowing Veterans, and all the All-knowing '09-ers... You're all self-absorbed bloated arguments. Take a chill pill, calm down guys and gals.
Though it is funny to see the '09 PK'ers who post in all caps and misspell every other word, as if that is a intimidating message bonus. It gets me through the forum though. ¬_¬


Not much to lodge on the subject really, I don't care that much. The only issue I have is when I do the occasional TT. And before all you "All-knowing players" say that Clues are supposted to be hard; I agree.
The only problem is that in '07, the damage scale was puny compared to modern hits. Dragon Claws can hit over 1k in a single round now. I'd be fine if the same damage scale applied, and all these 99 strength PKers with there 'L33T 5K1LLS' weren't running around in rabid packs for kicks and kills.
Back in the day when you DID enounter a PK'er a Lv 70 TT'er had A CHANCE to escape a LV 100 PKer if he knew what he was doing; that's reasonible. Nowadays, If you have 2 LV 110's, and one has claws and is geared for PKing, and the other is geared for TT's (Not exactly the best PVP gear, I'd imagine... In my case, anyways.) It's pretty one-sided.

Anywho, Clues are supposed to be hard (I wouldn't complain in that) though PVP can be challanging by itself, yet alone trying to Sucessfully defend PVP and do a Clue scroll.

And agreed with Vizua ( Mostly. :P )
