... In case you haven't noticed Runescape's activity has dropped severely since the wild removal ...
in case you hvent notice (obiously not), what drop severely was the number of bots in the game. used to there was a dozen minimum at every major wc area, every mining area, and at all the dragons and other resource gathering areas.
now, theres maybe a dozen.
anyone can see the numbers add up. dozens of areas with a dozen bots, in 148 worlds. even if you dont accept the math i showed you then, here is the proof of it.
lets just take a small number. 6 bots on 24 area, in 148 worlds. thats 28k + bots in game at all time, and i guranteee there is a lto more than 24 areas, and there were a lot more than 6 bots in those areas.
no one can deny there were over a hundred thousand bots in the game at a time when there was no way there could be more than 296k people online at one time. since jagex announced the record number of players was 247k set in few 08, its obvious that there was no more than 147k players in game at any time.
now days, there is maybe one or two areas with maybe a dozen or so bots in any world, and these are all player owned bots, not real world trader gold farming bots.
compare 147k max before the update with over 200k players now, no, the game isnt losing people, it gained over the last 3 years. there are more real players in the game now that ever has been before.
frankly my dear, I couldn't give a dam. never had a river to build one on.

cevo, agents never got facts supporting his theory, and lot of his earlier theory's are based upon falsified numbers made for his own selfish reasons, i think he needs to stop fighting a case that has been proved to be wrong by several hundred people earlier in this topic.
and agent. 1 or 2 area's? are you kidding i can name 3 straight up and i expect that people can name a hell of alot more where bots are right now, in every world.1) miners guild coal mining. 2) yews behind varrock castle 3)willows in draynor. and so many more that i dont have time to put up.

It seems to me that Jagex may be losing ideas, as well as hoping for more subscribers too. I loved the free-trade and all, however, the expultion of Free-trade + Wilderness PKing has dramaticly improved how fair the game plays.
Call it a rant if you want, but I'm simply inputting my point of view.
Maybe people could duel each other on spacific worlds like in Old RuneScape (which needs both people's permission)
I know this might cause problems, but you don't have to risk items, and you could have your stats restored to the point at which you started the duel on. You could also have completely restored stats for the duration of the duel too.
I'm guessing this'll be moved to Constructive Critiquism (excuse my spelling, please), but it directly involved the PVP + WILD.
Thanks for reading, if you do anyways.

I love this idea, but I love the PVP worlds too. I miss the old free trade and the old wilderness, but PVP worlds offer a different kind of PVP than the wild did. Having the ability to fight throughout all of the runescape world is a very fun ability indeed.
Also, the getting rid of the limits in the *.*. I think is a bad idea. that is going to send the economy flying wildly around for a while before it balances. I think you should simply remove trade limits, that is all. Remove the limits and make the wild dangerous again, but keep all other things as they are.
