u cant just change something back to the way it was, after all that has happened jagex should know that the wildy will never be the same and this will destroy all content in the past years
jagex is probably trying for: a world record, a renewal of membership of ragequitters, or a communism
all are valid, especially looking at the setup of this vote...
i think its COMMUNISM
Where Guthix sought balance in the world, I seek balance in oneself. Pax tecum.

The vote is flawed, but at least it's a vote. This is one of the few times that jagex has truly decided to let its players be heard. I'm sure they will discount accounts made within the last few weeks/months as they really don't know what the game was like before. Still, better security and a no option would be nice, but we have to take what we can get.

Jagex might not have an intent to even bring it back, they may just have thought about it but won't do it. What if this was just a way to gain attention and regain people's interest? Quite a bit of people quit due to removal, many who were RWTs and botters. Doing the likes of this would catch many people's attention again until it dies down.
I'd hope this isn't for real because the voting isn't set up fairly. It's easy to add votes into it and forces others that doesn't agree to vote unknowingly.

My only request, as far as the free trade part goes, is that the Grand Exchange and the item values displayed in-trade be kept, along with the warning/blinking exclamation marks that signify if an item has been removed or swapped with another.
Thus, two major problems would be more easily avoided; item scamming and a huge amount of spam/autotyper use. Worlds 1 & 2 are already widely known as spamfests - I don't see any need for that behavior to be spread across the rest of RuneScape.
Otherwise, I think it'd be wonderful to have free trade back. :) I enjoy giving gifts at 99 parties, birthdays, and holidays; the trade limit always put a damper on the good intentions.

i think this can be both a great thing, and a not so great thing, with moderation this can work. jagex would have to make this be an optional part of the game in my opinion i think the two parts of this update should work as follows
Free Trade
-optional like lootshare
-cetain worlds
-has a toggle button of some sort
-moderating of the trades
-possibly a weekly/monthly limit
Wilderness
-Only certain worlds
-some worlds remain with only revs
-worlds with being skulled, keep one item, and traditional
-after combat ends the player who wins the fight has a min to pick up loot, and not be followed or attacked
-when entering the wilderness players have the choice to press a button that says whether they are there to pk or for another reason, and that can keep them safe.
in the end i think this update would need to be strictly monitored so that the passed does not repeat its self, even though everybody thinks that the updates removing the wild and free trade were hurting us, they were acctually drastically helping us.

I dont really see this whole thing as a vote but more of a petition as there isnt a no option.
I want the wildy back and free trade, but not the bots and scamming. Also will this actually bring them back if there are countless people just sitting at the polls putting in random names multiple times?

But not a valid vote, since no login is required people are using every username there is to vote for it. By rigging the poll they have just brought a lot of anger upon themselves, if they would have had a fair poll from the start i honestly believe the result would be recieved better, i certainly would have accepted it.
