@Zuie
An interesting post and I'll adhere to being respectful to you because you've been respectful. You are indeed as you say, an old school player. You have the exact same attitude that practically everyone had back then and I respect that. We could do with many more players like you.
The economy and game being a lot more fun and creative are merely your own opinions. I appreciate that you backed your opinions up because I certainly won't be arguing that you're wrong to believe that because there really is no right or wrong answer. However, many of us (I believe that I can speak on that behalf.) feel that it isn't the case. To us, the game has became too bubble wrapped, baby friendly and treats everyone like we need protection from far too much.
Many of us (I think I can speak for the majority of yes voters.) feel that the game lacks the creativity in the aspects of freedom that free trade and old wilderness gave us. We are limited in how generous we can be to our friends, brothers, sisters or just random lower levels who need to be helped (maybe providing them with a full set of rune if they reach level 40 defence or something.) We feel that this game has simply become more like Jagex spoon feeding us when we really wish for a challenge. The old wilderness provided that for us (even if we didn't pk.), the whole idea that it was dangerous to enter and such made it all the more daring. Many of us also feel that this economy is nothing more than a total joke since it's very inflated. The economy of now, to many of us yes voters is far too easily abused by price manipulators and some of us feel that it's not fair that people can just abuse the economy to earn their money. To me, that's not in the spirit of the game since it technically robs the lower ranks of the clan and other players. Some of us also believe that since we worked for many things and could do clues in the wilderness and such without problems, that others can do it as well.
Thanks for your view.

My opnion:
Only NOOBS can be scammed...
And then,we dont need JUNKS
JUNK = HALF OF REAL PROFIT
FREE TRADE = 100% OR PLUS OF THE PROFIT.
Idc about the wild...
and about the real world trading,the real world trading still working(I NEVER USED!just saying)there are some websites selling runescape products,but they login at the account.(I NEVER USED DONT BAN ME !!!)hehehe joking.
the free trade will help the players get cash.
i know all i am saying...

@low effect
I'm sorry, mate. You must have got the wrong person or totally misunderstood what I was saying. I support free trade and the old wilderness. The first paragraph of that post was me quoting someone else and telling them that "clans piling each other." and all that stuff is pretty much what the NEW PVP AND BH worlds are, that the old wilderness didn't have this idiotic, "risk 76k, kill someone risking 76k and you could get rewarded with drops of 5 mill+."
I've absolutely no problems with the old wilderness, I used to do clues in it with absolutely no problems. Heck, I used to go anti pk in it on the odd occassion. I guess you took the words that I put in ""s at the start of my post as my own. It was in fact a quote from someone else's posts.
I totally agree with you, the wilderness is meant to be dangerous. I preferred walking into the wilderness and it being an accomplishment to make it back out alive, it was far more daring and thrilling with pkers in the wilderness. I prefer free trade because I can finally help my friends again as well and it will kill "mercher" ccs.

You obviously haven't been to PVP or BH+1 worlds before, then. Ancient Statuette= 5 million. Stat Warhammer= 8.7 mill. Vls= 14.9 mill.
Rubbish? What planet does 8.7 mill, 5 mill and 14.9 mill= less than 5 million? You might wanna go to such worlds and do your research before you post something like that. Now admit defeat and learn from your mistake.
For a 76k risk either side, do such rewards seem "perfectly balanced"? It's too generous to possibly earn that much from someone risking 76k while you also risk 76k.

Have you ever actually talked to anyone who pks in runescape? EVERYONE gets horrible drops for big risks. And even if what you said is true, then why don't you get out there and pk to get the benefit? EXCACTLY! You know the drops are horrible!

For about 3 yrs now I've been playing this game off and on and lost interest i understand what happened before with the free trade, and why they changed it, but i think that they will see more people playing this game.

I think that it will bring more players in and it will bring back the good old times we all use to have. Player killing was the biggest idea Rune-scape had and the Wilderness was the edge that this game needed to succeed.
I'm voting "yes" to the free trade poll, hopefully we don't have too many bots and real world trading going on anymore and maybe there are ways we all can make sure it does not get out of control like the last time...

Also I know there was a lot of scamming going on to you need to be aware of this and remember all the different scams and prevent them from happening pay attention don't trade to quick, and watch carefully. I'm really excited about this poll and i can't wait to start playing this game like I always use too.
I will see you all in game!

Actually, yes I have. Many of my friends pk and have wound up landing statuettes, vls and Statius Warhammers often enough. I went to a bh world for a few times and came out with a statuette from a kill. Considering I lost only like 60k from supplies and made 5 million, I think that was a bit much. Heck, 76k tricking had to be nerfed because it made people so much money. If it didn't, why'd they bother to nerf it?
In fact, one of my Arma gwd friends landed some nice stuff about a month ago when he was last on a bh+1 world. Believe it was a Stat hammer. To earn good money from pking, you actually have to pk and do so well. Me? I don't pk now, I anti pked and since that's not possible now, I no longer do so. I've other things I like to do instead such as clue scrolls. Not everyone out there is a pker.
