I have been waiting long for the jagex staff to realise how stupid it was to take away the real pking and staking and free trading it was what made runescape in the beggining. No one would have told anyone ab cept the real determined no lifers that, as many people have said before, just like to sit there and click on inanimate objects to gain levels which then had no purpose but to make yourself look good. Pking is what made runescape what it is and im glad that its coming back so 3 cheers for jagex!

Agent B-"then why were more than half the pkers " pker pures" who insulted others for skilling?"
I cant say that didn't happen because i remember it very clearly. But guess what... most of those kids were hypocrites, im sure they had plenty of skills themselves. The small portion of pkers that didn't were just jealous of skillers, because their skills SUCKED or they were poor.
i also remember a little button at the bottom of my screen that read IGNORE. if you dont want to listen to someone making stupid statements or insulting people. all you have to do is click on it and type that person's user name, this only took 10 seconds. seems like a very small price to pay to get rid of that person :D .
"not according to three seperate polls jagex did in 2006. if 90 percent of the game had been about pking, jagex would have eliminated skilling and made it possible to buy all your stuff with real money."
Did you ever stop and think that most pkers only logged on to pk? meaning they didn't care what happened anywhere else. how do i explain this lol... ill use myself as an example... i NEVER voted on ANY polls because as soon as i put RUNESCAPE.*** on my browser i pressed the "PLAY" button. because i didnt care about anything other than pking. MY POINT IS. true pkers such as myself back then, didnt even stop to read the runescape main page and most DEFINITELY DID NOT vote on polls lol. so who ever that 90% were, they most likely were the 10% of skillers that i mentioned earlier. you know... the ones i talked about earlier, the ones that find clicking on trees and rocks incredibly enjoyable.

yes bring back free trade and wilderness....free trade does make scams more likely but there are people who made their money off merchanting which is a legitimate way to make money as long as the people buying are willing to pay more than what you bought it for and people will just need to be careful...have the warning sign on trade windows pop up if something is changed at the last second or if the trade is uneven but allow it if the buyer still chooses to go through with it...as for wildy...I used to play on a level 100 account that I really enjoyed pking on in deep wildy near mage arena with my clan as well as lower lever wildy 1 on 1 battles...I quit because wildy was taken away and became very boring...I made this account about a month ago to give RS another try...but without normal wildy I just cant get in to it so I dont plan on playing again unless wildy comes back

"
I disagree personally, The wilderness would be best rolled back to how it was. The simple fact because level three clue scrolls are supposed to be challenging.
Mining Runite ore is supposed to be challenging.
Using the abyss is suppose to be challenging.
--If yo don't like it you can always try level 2 clues, mining adamant, or walking through Karamja."
------------------------
+ Over 9,000! You just rocked my socks with that comment. Bring the wild back, was more fun, and I have lots more friends who will come back and actually enjoy the game of RS like us old schools back of the 03-07 era. Bring back Clan Fear!

Agent,
You can not just assume everybody who is in favor of this update has 8 accounts and votes on all of them. I basically am only interested in Pking, i have 1 account.
Also a lot of skillers have made lvl 3 accounts where they try and get 99s because they think that a lvl 3 with a trimmed fletch cape is cool, so both communities have multiple accounts, but pkers do not all have like 8, and if they do they probably don't remember the account details of all of them.
And probably a majority of skillers are for free trade because the prices of sharks, potions armor etc.. will be in huge demand and will go up up up, and we will even get rid of those merch clans.
And how can you be so sure that bots will take over rs. if Jagex say they can handle them, they are alot better informed than you and I will believe them.
Anyway stop crying that babyscape is going to die and learn to bring a teleport or something to wildy.

I would love to see the wildy return but for the free trade there was alot of problems with people selling coins for real cash.
I've been playing since 2002 and that was one of the major problems that Jagex was having with the free trade system.

I'm a mother that have a lot of younger children that love the game. I think it's important to have it like now, I promote this game to other parents because it's so much to learn from this and it's important that the have good experience from a game. As it was it was very important to tell them it's a lot of "bad people out there" I don't love to tell them at even at the computer game you have to be careful.
The voting system in front almost got me to click that I wanted the old system back. I just wanted to vote no and you think you get to a new page. I don't think that voting system are correct.
As one said old wilderness in pvp world can be an option.
