Jagex...suspicions i haz.
1. You're letting random people vote for -any- name whatsoever, meaning people who don't want to vote are being voted for, which is stupid.
2. Why have you got a Guinness World Record sign at the bottom?

This should have been a proper poll. How do you not pass protect it? Also, where is the vote for "no"? Either it wasn't thought through or it was never intended to be a poll at all, rather just a means to stir the news of the inevitable with no choice to the players.

Two things:
A) REALLY bad design for the poll page JaGeX, if you aren't paying attention you can vote for the change even if you're against it. Really disappointed about this.
B) If the change does go through, PLEASE leave a few worlds where the wildy is as it currently is (ie revenants). I for one shudder to think of what will happen if all the bots come back, but at the very least I want to be able to go to the wildy to do the activities, quests, diversions, and training available there without having to worry about other players killing me when I have nothing of value, simply to get their kicks. The revenants do a fine job of keeping you on your toes, but aren't as focused as a real pker would be on making your day horrible.
Nothing against PKers, not really. But I want to make the decision to do PvP, not have someone else make it for me when I'm trying to do something else.

Somehow I have managed to accidentally vote yes, and it appears I am not the only one. I thought clicking 'vote now' would take me to an option to vote 'yes or 'no'. I think the page should hae been made clearer.

I would love the idea of having free trade and old wildy brought back, however there are some things that exist right now that shouldn't be removed either. I feel that being able to trade to everyone using the grand exchange, however without having a price range on every item would be great. Without the grand exchange people would be close to lost without ever being able to collect those hard-to-get items. Allow people to set their own prices, Have a list of a certain item thats being sold, all with a different price range to give people a better idea of the price range people are selling the items at, and let them decide which items they wish to buy through the ge without having to worry about being scammed, as they have the ability to find the cheapest deal for the exact item. Those who wish to buy the item through person to person trading...leave the notification if someone removes an items and quickly swaps it for something worth less (like gp amounts) so that people are at least aware that a change has been made.
As for the wilds, I'm sure ALOT of old time players would be happy to PK like they used to back in the old days. I wasnt really a fan of it to begin with, though I had fun doing suicidal pking.
My vote for this is BRING IT BACK!
P.S. I loved being able to create a business based on free trade. It was impossible doing this without it

Hello there,
I have mixed feeling about this one of them is this is a bad idea since the update for wilderness worlds and us players being able to visit the wilderness without the fear of dieing (apart from revs).
Well i feel that you shouldn't bring back the free trade will bring back scamming runescape was safer without wilderness and free trade this is one of the few updates i hate im sorry jagex you have just ruined 2011 already :( .
