i haven't been playing for long so i don't know what old wildy is like so i'm having mixed feelings about this whole vote but for a fact i know that there relocating all the mini games in wildy which is nice but what about clue scrolls? maybe they should make worlds for clue ppl or maybe not because it defeats the purpose for the wildy. IT would be so nice if with free trade for your friend to give you presents you know? i mean this 5 k limit is horrible to hard to make any money so the ppl who give up either quit or...bot! :P and the ppl who aren't idiots and actually want to play a game fair get annoyed by these bots and quit but they have wildy now? so thats nice but jagex didnt really fix spammers they made them go down but not make em leave and if you dont want them there there a right click button on public witch only shows ur friends speech and urs so just do that?


yours truley ruin...

(This message is not directed to anyone in particular. Just for the people who say that botting will return with the wilderness and free-trade.)
Unless there is a PKing bot (which I highly doubt), I don't see how botting has anything to do with the wilderness and free-trade. I could see how it effects RWT, but how will the number of botters increase if the wilderness and free-trade returns?
Botting and RWT will always be in RuneScape, whether the wilderness is here or not. People will always find a new way to cheat, so preventing it by taking away PvP opportunities is useless. I've been here since 2005 and I've always been against botters and RWT, but I'm also against the December '07 updates. JaGeX is making the right decision by giving us the old wilderness and free-trade.

What a joke, Idk why u guys came up with the idea to return old-school, cause jagex have much more to fix if they want to return old-school. Like the hits? Cmon ? x10 ? really? This is what bush would done, but jagex? And the G.E? So much scam --> talking about the clans? those ***gets get richer then u ever could get in one week, even irl!

Think about it jagex... u lost so much, I undertanded about the bots, scams. But pvp area's? G.e? people should make their own prieces, and if a scammer wants to scam ? well heres a solution! --> The guide about items should be! like the g.e guide? But u gone to far --> after the release with the hits, thats why I quitted a few months ago.

So here's my personal opinion about this whole scenario:
Alot of people are complaining in the forums that when the free trade economy was here people got lured or scammed out of money, the best way to fix that is pay attention to what your doing if you get lured or scammed it's because you either lack commonsense, your 8yrs old, your new to the game, or your not paying attention.
As far as the bots go, the best thing I can say is Jagex has come along way sense then and Im sure by now they've had some decent advancements im programming to defend themselves against bots.
Finally, because Jagex was looking at legal trouble because of RTWers before the trade limit and GE appeared, I doubt *here just going to just throw free trade back in the game without some kinda of Catch 22 in the rules somewhere.

Personally, I would love to have free trade back. If people are dumb enough to be scammed, then that's their problem. I know the values of the objects i am trading and not to enter the "whoever gives me the most gets a prize" kind of thing when trading. And as for the wilderness... I honestly believe it was more than 10x more fun just killing random people in the wilderness. The wilderness was a place where all people could choose how high or how low you wanted to fight, and the risk of the wilderness was much more fun when it was other players instead of the revenant ghosts. I may not be making much sense here, but what I'm saying is that the wilderness and free trade should definitely be brought back.

@Itachi
I think it's the player's fault for getting scammed. Think about it, shouldn't everyone check the second trade window before accepting an offer? JaGeX gives you perfect safety, but players choose not to use it and end up losing their precious items.
I've never been scammed, and I've always checked the second trade window. :D
EDIT: I agree completely with Juggalo.
EDIT EDIT: @Killer, RuneScape was created in 2001, the '1999' comes from DeviousMUD, a previous version of RuneScape that is very similar.
