I think that bringing wilderness back is a good idea becouse all my friends who are not playing runescape anymore quit runescape for that reason, me too...
For those who play fair should not complain about those who are playing not fair. In addition, we are all playing for ourselves and not for others. All the limits of runescape coming with inconvenience and inflexibility in the runescape gameplay.

I am hugely in support, this will destroy manipulation clans and help businesses and make runescape more fun overall.
Question:
-what will happen to GE?
-Why is the poll set up this way?
-How many votes do we need?

@sister
In my mind PKing shouldn't be profit based, it should be a fun thing on the side you can do if you want to.
The whole reason is was changed is to stop people trading between accounts freely, this was allowing people to make IRL profit off of runescape gold. This was ruining the game (helping fund botting, slave labour to farm gold, item scamming, ******** scamming and 'hacking' and was encouraging credit card theft). Please understand I do not hate PKing, I hate a half decent game being ruined. If any1 can think of an idea to have fair PKing and stop this trading between accounts then by all means lets hear it, but until then it is not worth bringing back a system that allows people to make money off runescape items.
That is the reason I don't want free trading, and until every1 sees reason it seems I will have to keep restating this stand.
If you still wish for PKing then obviously you don't care for the rest of the game and are only thinking short term.

Communists vote in the same way as this vote on free trade and wildy return. You list one candidate, usually the ruling party dictator, and call it an election. The failure to put a "NO" selection for a vote has caused some confusion and even pro votes that were not meant to be cast.
Spyte said it well. To open all worlds to pvp PK'ers is to put at risk your people who are going to wildy now for training including chaos tunnels, beacon lighting,fists of guthix, kbd, mage training, all clue running and more. I remember so many people getting invited or asking to go to wildy and someone would gladly take them , only to to kill the requesting party as soon as a high enough level wildy had been entered. That was a 'scam' that used to tick me off badly since it took advantage of the young or new players.
Expand your dedicated pk worlds but its awfully funny pk worlds dont get over run or stay packed right now so why the heck do u want to see people hurt who get angry and then talk down rs or quit.
As to free trade, you finally got people accustomed to a system in the GE. Tweak it to allow greater range of trade and be prepared to handle a 'hoarded item' market. Allowing real free trade without limits will return us to the item scamming and yes the over payment method of transferring gold.
With the only available voting option of "yes" I do look for a reinstatement of wildy and free trade of a sort and then jagex will be tweaking it to fix all the complaints and cheating and fresh bots or gold purchasing on line all over again.

I say they make another 'server' like "Classic Runescape" make it like idk make it '2004-2006 runescape' or something
and it should be where players who've been playin since then have access to it. I think thats a good idea. it would take away anybots from that time because they where already all banned.
PLEASE REPLY ( I think it's a good idea ) k

@World 66:
Perhaps you misunderstood. It's nothing like the auction house. You just specify exactly how much you selling each item for. The entire trade would still need to be within the limit. Once the trade completes, the database records the average sale price and eventually updates the median price that everyone sees as the default.
The GE takes the fun out of finding someone to trade with. :|

Well said.
There are certainly endemic problems which have arisen with abuses of the Grand Exchange however the correct solution would be to reform some aspects of it rather than open it up with open trade limits.
I was around before the grand exchange was implemented, I saw the problems with bots and RWT. I don't want to go back to that. The GE update was the best update the Jagex has put out in all the time that I have been playing.
While I am sorry for the people who loved wildy PKing, the fact remains that they need to move on. Jagex has implemented many options for PKing that don't break the game, so it's hard to feel too sorry for them when there has been so much put into the game to appease them.
