If 600,000 botters or 50,000 people in your mind all created accounts to go against voting, why did the people who did not want the wilderness not create several accounts?
It seems clear as day that such an event has not happened.
The poll was legitimate, people had three options and had to have a registered username to vote, nothing more could have been done.
In this case, I would say...deal with it man.
The wilderness (if Jagex decides that they want what the majority wants) is coming back and you should just ENJOY IT.
It's a great thing freedom man.

Uve been proven to be bad with numbers through the history of this thread.
1,123,539 Votes and only 50k of them are legit? Yeah, right.
Stop bsing because your No votes never climbed over 100k.
Yes votes have atleast 100k.
Your 86,426 No Votes isnt completly accurate but theres no point arguing it as its small and insignificant.

1) most skillers are adults that dont create throw away accounts. pkers are generally teens that have little better to do.
2) there is no finacial incentives (rwting) to spend that kind of time.
3) it would have been useless, since jagex already made the decision long before the vote was announced.

and you have been proven to be someone that CHOOSE to ignore reality. there were several dozen bot areas, each with at least 6 bots in them in at 148 world, which means there were at least 100k bots in game. yet you insist there couldnt have been a fraction of those.
no, the facts are facts, and your ignorance of them doesnt get rid of them.
frankly my dear, I couldn't give a dam. never had a river to build one on.

And with the wilderness in all worlds, Lag will be reduced and just so you know, the wilderness is supposed to be dangerous. Before you go into it, it has a warning that you may lose all of your items, players are not forced to go into it, Ever. therefore if you decide that you want to not get killed then you can stay out of it.

Pkers don't force feed from skillers. Pkers love to pk against pkers. If a skiller just happens to be there around the wrong crowd, then can expect to be attacked.
Want to know why i see very little reason to compremise? Simply because there was no compremise when the wilderness was taken away. There was no vote, no referendum, no warning... nothing.
To see it it brought back to how it was would make the majority happy. You No voters just want Jagex to bubble wrap your account so every activity in the game is safe so you dont have to take responsibility for your actions.

That most skillers are adults is complete bull. Im a pker, but I also skill alot as well. I dont have multiple pk accounts either.
To say that most skillers are adults is really a bold claim. Skillers spend hours on end, slowly leveling up fletching, smithing, **oking, farming, and other skills.
If most of those skillers are adults, then most of those adults have the money to spend on in game items, which contribute to RWTing. Players at an adult age who wouldnt mind sacra*icing a little bit of extra cash to quickly advance through there levels are the biggest problem we have that contribute to RWTing.

it will not reduce it. pkers will still hang around edgy just as they did before, but now they will make it lag for skillers in that are.
if the wild is suppose to be so dangerous, why is the rc abyss there.
rc is one of the least productive skills in the game, making at best 100k an hour, and generating at most 15k exps and hour. compared to fishing (250k and 100k exps possible) and wc its has no rewards, yet, the only way to do it fast without haveing to pay though the nose for it, is though the abyss.
then you lose a single glory and spend 2 hours getting your pouches back, and you lose that little bit.

then according to the poll, your a rarity. less than 10 percent had only 1 pk account, or your not counting the dead pk accounts you abandoned.
but yes, the average age for the players is 22 (the average pleyer is 17, but 70 skews the average upwards more than 13 does it downwards). a poll showing the ages and what players like to do showed that it was mostly teens that like pking and mostly adults that like skilling.
...most of those adults have the money to spend on in game items, which contribute to RWTing....
adults are more likely to play by the rules and to consider the achievement more important than the item. teens are in a rush to get things, and dont believe the rules apply to them.

- - - - -
Maturity comes with experience, not age. There are many teens that are more mature than adults that play. There are adults who are more likely to disregard the rules as they feel that buying in game items would be easier and faster than spending hours gathering them themselves.
Most teens have more times on thier hands and less responsibilities. Teens are less likely to have credit cards to hop onto these RWT sites to buy these items being sold.
