Personally, I am all for both the old wildy and the free trade limit. BUT I think the ENTIRE poll needs to be redone due to the fact that one person can vote multiple times if they have more than one account. I think first you have to make it so you can only vote once and I've heard of a lot of people saying they accidentally voted Yes because at one point there wasn't a "NO" option. The poll needs to be redone under these conditions to actually get an accurate estimate of how many people really *ant this because this WILL be a huge game altering decision and if it goes through, I think we need to be completely sure that this is what the majority wants.

As a player for 9years i have seen alot of changes, on of the good ones was when u removed the wildy and stopped majority of the RLT not alone scamming side of it also. you said this was a good way forward when you removed it only down side was we was limited on trade limits which made it worse as we was getting punished for the people making profit in real life.
Now your going back on your word and bringing it back people that play maybe happy or sad about it, But for you as a company You will be flooding your doors open to let the RLT back in and the scammers to roam again. You already have to many mods on the game with no powers apart to report on there forum and having no powers to do bot checks like many other famous game **tes do.
So to me you allowing this game to get screwed again, and if that is the case go ahead as i wont be playing no longer the game was unique kinda thats why ive been playing so long. But now Your allowing yourselves to ruin it all.
Guess its up to You if u wanna throw it all down the toilet only thing you proberly get is a golden toilet brush award.
Anyway if it comes to see you ruin it i may as well chuck in the towel now and leave, just hate seeing other players get punished or scam by other people.

You have been misinformed
The people who say they voted yes because there wasnt a yes option voted n a completely different thing. There has been a "yes" button, a "no" button and an "I don't mind" button since the current vote was launched.
The people who voted yes by accident were signing a petition that did not mean they wanted it back, the petition was for people to sign who felt strongly about the issue. All it was used for was drawing attention to how strongly a lot of people felt about the matter, not a definitive yes or no.
There is nothing wrong with the current poll.
People voting yes can use all their accounts but so can the people voting no... It's all relative and it will not change the percentage outcome.

haha stephandr you talk about it being their company..
That's exactly why they're doing it! This update will bring more traffic, more paying members, more publicity and therefore more attention by means of sponsors or potential advertisers. At the end of the day RWT is not a massive problem to jagex or any of it's players... it has been blown far out of proportion.
So to be honest if jagex go ahead with this update there will be smiles all round jagex HQ

Lord anu
Are you trying to tell me that there was ** "no" button?
Trust me there was, I signed the PETITION saying that I felt strongly about the issue and then when the VOTE (notice the change in name so people like you can understand me) came out I VOTED YES.
The referendum that currently has just under 1.1 million votes has had a no option from the very beginning.
It was the petition that didn't have a no option and that was because it was a PETITION.

Why? because I know what the word petition means?
The first thing (the petition) has no relevance any more, it has been forgotten. The petition will make no influence on Jagex's decision whatsoever, it was only made so they could get an understanding of whether the community still felt strongly after three years. The answer was yes so they brought out a referendum where the people who wanted no could vote no and the people who wanted yes could vote yes. This meant that they could see whether the general consensus was that the trade limit and boring wilderness were a good thing or a bad thing.
I'm sorry if you're angry that you don't agree with the majority but hey, you win some, you lose some.
