@Divine Halos

The econemy right now isnt in a good state. Back before grand exchange, training skills like herblore and fletching took more time than money because you actually made money from skilling.
The ingredients for a potion is ofter 2x more than the potion itself, causing people to constantly lose money while training herblore or fletching.
With balanced trades back into the game, players can start making profit off skilling once again.

It wouldn't take much for the developers to come up with something to make the non-pkers instantly recognisable to pkers.
Think about it a bit more, my suggestion would make everyone happy and not just the majority.
It makes sense.

I am very happy that the ol' wildie and free trade are coming back!!

I have been playing Runescape on and off since 2006, and when they stopped the wilderness pking and the free trade it was a big shock for me and so many others too.
I hate the Grand Exchange, it was so much better to buy on free trade. Back then using the forum and standing outside banks selling and buying stuff was a good way to make new friends and business partners.
Jagex, you said you would still keep the Grand Exchange, well,... Does that mean that the prices will still be fixed by Grand Exchange, because if it's the case, then I don't see the point in free trades.
I am not a PKer, but believe me, for those who are crying because they think killing green dragons (lvl 11 wilderness) will be hard because of potential PKers in the area is horseshite.
You have more chances to get killed by revenants than by other PKers when killing green dragons, don't ask me why, I don't know, all I know is that when I go to make money by killing green dragons nowadays I find that I have to teleport or run for my life more often than I did when the wildie was a PK zone.
The thing I liked the most about the old wilderness is the adrenaline, stress and excitement one can experience while adventuring in the dark wilderness with the knowledge that anyone can attack you at any time.
Thank you and have fun my dear RS brothers and sisters.

Thats a bad idea because everyone would stand around with the "OPT Out" option on, until they saw someone they wanted to attack.
OR everyone would keep it on and have to ask someone to fight everytime. Clan fights would be fail, as you cant rush other clans...
It would ruin the nature of pking.

It wouldn't take much for them to move clan wars and other minigames within the wildy. They make space for content ingame all the time. It's what they do. Why change the rules of something that was around before clan wars and these other minigames. You probably weren't even around during the old wildy. It would make more sense to keep the old wildy's rules, and just move the other things that were not in the wildy at the time.

EXACTLY lol

No, very stupid idea. I've played for over five years and I'm much more satisfied with the way things are now. There are plenty of PvP opportunities as it is. There really is no need to return the wilderness to what it once was. If players want the wilderness go to a PvP world. The balance is uneven if the wild comes back the way it was. You get a lot more RWT something you fought against for years. Many players I run into in areas are stating they're going to quit. The unlimited trade limit I wouldn't mind if it didn't effect the G.E. Also, many people I have seen who posted on the forums stating that they accidentally clicked "YES" and that they wanted to cancel their vote. A lot of your "YES" votes came from mistakes such as that.
In the end it would be best for RuneScape and it's players if the Wilderness isn't returned. The trade limit is important too as it considerably reduces RWT.

You should be greatful that they're even returning it for us. Why get all agressive and impatient?
Just wait until monday when the update might come out.
Today the voting ends, and i was hoping for the update to come out today, but I knew Jagex a little better than that.
So we'll just have to wait until Monday to see what happens.
