I have played since around 2003-2004(not on this account but through quite a few different ones threw the years) and I was very disappointed when the wilderness and free trade were taken away from us.
While this may have been only a slightly effective way to combat botters.I still don't think it was worth it. I miss pking with my old friends that left the game cause they didn't have the thrill anymore.
I also used to help people out all the time with whatever I could because I was also helped out by members in the community.
For example when my main account was stolen a good friend of mine convinced me to start up a new account and gave me 1 mil to start it off with and helped me get any other training equipment I needed. I wasn't trading him for anything in real life he was just honestly helping me out and i would do the same thing for him or any of my other grood friends,but without free trade I wouldn't be able to offer them but about 10k to help start them out when I would
kill to be able to give them much more.
Also while clan wars is great and I love it to death. It doesn't capture the feel of the old wilderness and it would be so great to have both as well as the safe free for all portal as well. Which I have to say the safe and dangerous portals were a good try but still not the same.
For those of you that don't understand why we want this back,please understand PKing is like a tradition for the most of us. When me and my group of friends wanted to get together and celebrate something on RS we used to plan pking trips for fun and they were the best times i've ever had on this game,and I cannot wait to be back out there doing again.I'm sorry for my lengthy message,Thank you all who read this.
Yours Truly,
