Perhaps people have forgotten that clue scrolls did exist before the wilderness was taken out, and that it in fact was possible to complete them. Also, Redjustice, pkers don't receive clues as drops from their victims because they are untradable. Additionally, with the return of the old wilderness, people would be able to pk on all worlds, so the concentration of teams and whatnot would significantly decrease.
I have now been playing for more than 8 years, and while I continued through the removal of free trade, if this vote ends up not succeeding for whatever reason, or if it is just some cruel taunt, I will probably cease to play.

Restating my post Scalctor!
I am a veteran player, and I have enjoyed this game for more than 4 years or so, and I voted "Yes" to return the Wilderness and trading to its original state.
Why you may ask?
Well, I myself find Runescape a game fun not for how easy it is to play, but how difficult it is to play and how you have to wait hours to sell your items in a bustling market place! I enjoyed this, as it made lots of player on player interaction, allowed you to start your own enterprises, and enjoy the business side of Runescape, and that is why I use to play the game. Now, the Market Place is like a stock market, no longer a place where people interact and actually trade, haggle, ETC. This has desolated my reasons to play the game as I loved this, and now, it is replaced with a cold Grand Exchange!
As for the Wilderness, the rush, the thrill of fighting others was wonderful! I was never good at it, but it was a fun pass time, as well as a good way to compete with other players, as you see in the new system, no one, I MEAN NO ONE, wants to wait hours for their EP to fill, wait an hour for a target, or face extreme penalties to their drop? Who in their right mind WOULD WANT THIS? Part of the reason you would be in the Wilderness is to get valuable ores, fight powerful monsters, earning good income, as Player Killers lurk in the shadows and strike. This is part, of the very fun of Runescape! It is the imperfections, the difficulties in this game, that make it fun. If you just got a billion gold from doing pointless grinding why would that be fun? Yet that is what the normal player in Runescape is doing now.
Please, I beg you, bring back the risk, the fun of Runescape and restore it to its former classical self!
I know bots will return, just update your systems to remove them faster, and educate the Runescape population why not to perform this. In order to remove botters, you must remove the demand for them. Otherwise, they will ALWAYS EXIST.

AND WITH THIS SAID!
I just want to say, I for one will return to PAYING FOR THE GAME if this happens, for a profit move, I say this is a very wise thing as hundreds of thousands of current players will return like me! So, I hope this proves my point.

i agree on the free trade but not old wildy, i guess but as long as jagex and other mods keep the pvp and bh +1 worlds i would continue having fun pking instead of losing my bank and having to remake about 70M+

It would be a great idea keeping them for people who would have to risk armadyl godsword or whatever they have, this would be a good choice
