these upcoming updates , wilderness,godwars etc , is just 2 much .. first of all it made all popular items crash extremely , i just lost 20m cause all bandos fury claws is half price they were b4 , and still crashing .jagex doing some kind of trick , cause he really wouldnt so simply return free trade , so alot ppl can again sell their milions easy as click , its not making sense.

Human_Drag0n so your saying the old vote was rigged
you wouldnt possibly suggest that jagex would let people do a rigged vote (cough cough this vote)

so people either need to except
1 million people voting means the games very popular or the rigs voted you cant have it both ways :-P
i personaly think its both :-P

the economy isas unstable as ever but there is one thing i would like to point out since the value of gold is decreasing the obvious reaciotn in the economy is for prices to go up with it if you compared gp ratios on something like a whip you would most likely find that it is no more difficult to obtain one now as opposed to free trade they were about 1 mil if im wrong correct me please now they are 3m in all actuality 3m now could be compared to about 700k-1.2m back then so some might take this example into consideration
this is purely a hypothitical scenerio the actual math may be a bit off

Again i agree with Human Dragon, because i have played the old runescape and the rich in the old game would have only an average amount today. In these days people have about 1-500 mill. Back then a zamorak staff would be about 80,000 but today (I'm not a member) the staff would probebly be about 900,000k? (Guessing)

Fredup that is not what he said at all. the purpose of the old vote was to see if people still wanted it back, whereas the purpose of this vote are to see what the majority of people want. The vote is not rigged because most players want the wilderness, or free trade, or bolth back.

There is a reason why you have introduced the new wildy and the trade limit, more than enough reasons actually. No scammers, no bots, no pvp gankers waiting for you to enter the wilderniss etc. I 'tried' playing in free to play at the moment but it is just impossible, loads of "botters" at the chickens / cows / willows etc and that was only in lumbridge. All that just because of the announcement that free trade might come back. I say we should keep the trade limit, maybe just up the cap a little more, but just DO NOT remove it. To many people would be getting scammed and all the bots are a pain in the neck if you are trying to level. Im not much of a pvp'er so wildy being back is alright for me. I know you guys are nice enough to keep some safe worlds for skillers like me, ain't that right?
thanks for letting us vote for this guys it is a nice idea to let the players participate in deciding stuff like this.
p.s. have a nice day to everybody reading this
--------------------------------
No scammers, no bots? Sorry to say that these never stopped. Bots are coming out in full force it sounds like, but log into a p2p world and I'm sure there will be significantly less. I do hope to see the bot numbers trimmed but we'll see what happens. I never had troubles with bots while leveling anything, and I know saying "Just become a member" is not a very good solution, but it's not horrible either. No pvp gankers waiting for you in wild? Things put into the wildy are meant to have the risk of getting pked. It's part of the risk vs reward. Armadyl hilts don't drop off of lvl 2 rats now, do they? If people are getting scammed all over the place they are either stupid, careless, or ignorant. Why do you want safe worlds for skilling? As far as I know, most people do not skill in wildy. There are a few places, but honestly again, risk vs. reward.

PLEASE JUST READ MY POST!
NO! The old PETITION was not a VOTE it was a PETITION which was desinged to draw attention to the fact that something needed to be done about it.
The fact that some people multi voted on the OLD PETITION proved that people cared about the issue so they created a FAIR REFERENDUM in which there is only ONE VOTE PER ACCOUNT and is FAIR.
To clear up, the old PETITION was representative of nothing other than the fact that people felt strongly about the return of wild and free trade, whether it was for or against was irrelevant.
Edit:
Thank you ramen.

Solar754 in 2007 dragon chain was 50m and 3rd age plate when it came otu not sure the exact date was 120 million people where still rich back then
people staked party hats in the duel arena
people seem to have this mistaken idea that the economy was poorer back then.

As i have said before.....two voices,one who denies and one who agrees....in this case our vote. Which voice does Jadex listen? Ask yourself that question.

i have very strong opions on this topic. I enjoy the wilderness as it is right now, although i think you should get some of what the person is wearing or has in their invotory, like if you pk dragon claws you get 1k loot that's messed up.. or if you pk 76k and you get 5m loot, although i do enjoy that (:.. I would most like to see FREE TRADE come back! that would be awsome! in the long run people will get scammed, but you must learn with experience.i cant wait for the old runescape to come back! I just hope jagex will go all the way with this update and not just keep the poll going so they can get in a record book and then flip us over.. if jagex does not follow threw with this update bad things will happen.. let's just say you will loose alot of 6$'s a month... GF... THANKS JAGEX FOR MAYBE (we all know you are.) BRINGING SOME OLD CHARTERISTICS OF THE 0LD RUNESCAPE!
