I welcome the comeback & look forward to it with great anticipation.
Old wildy, the way it used to be, is key to that "magical" feeling everyone used to get upon login.
Free trade with no trade limit would help eliminate merch clans. Keeping the G.E. as a guideline for prices, instead of using it as a tool through which trade is implemented, would give RS a sense of realism. It only takes patience & common sense to not get scammed in a trade. Examine the second trade window carefully before hitting "Accept".
As for bots, Jagex claims to have better ways to detect them & if they're willing to place their trust in these "better ways" to work flawlessly or darn near, then I say it's about time. That, combined with us reporting them when we see them should help the cause.
As for RWT, I leave that in the hands of Jagex. I'm sure they know what they're doing & have some type of a solution. Unfortunately, there's not much any of us, as individuals, can do about that.
My solution for the RWT problem has received alot of different comments, but what if Jagex raised all of the max skill levels to 120, like they did with Dungeoneering. And then joined the RWT community & sold gold & items for real cash, but at a cheaper price than the other RWT's? By doing this, they would eliminate the opposition & make money. And it would still make players spend large amounts of real world money in order to buy the gold needed to purchase the resources to max a skill. Other MMORPG's do it. It would almost make the game seem brand new again. Anyway it was only specualtion, don't form a lynch mob.
In conclusion, I reiterate that I absolutely support this idea & have already voted yes, without anonymity, on all of my RS accounts.

i dont think people will quit if nothing changes
(i can bet that something will be changing, and soon)
but which ever way it goes there will always be someone uspet and nothing can be done about this, but, over time they will move on and then grow to love runescape again because this is such a great game. i for one support jagex with either way this goes. i will be happy either way.

what dragoon says its dumb, you may think "no" but someone can easily just enter your display nane and click "yes" this "vote" is unjust. and nothing should be taken from any of the results. And from what you guys as a set up or this "Vote" is of who wants its, but not of who doesnt want it. How can you compare the results? From my understanding that >50% of the total created runescape accounts have to vote yes for this to pass? I say good luck then, from a previous statement you said there were over 150m accounts created. So pkers goodluck spamming enough voted for this to "pass" cause in all honesty if Jagex wants this to be fair in anyform they should reset the counter and make it a log in vote as well as include a "no" option so that figures from the outcome are accurate and not a load of **** that it already is. If you think about this at all jagex can barely push 300k players online at any given time. And highly doubt they have even 2m log ins a day. And in most cases a portion of the log ins are of the same accounts so im guessing less then 1m people log in daily so to have a vote count over 1m in less then 24 hours with so many people disagreeing is a load of ****. how about having this a fair two way vote instead of a single option petition.
Cause honestly i think the "No"s would surpass the "Yes"s
So how about it make this a community based decision? You claim that Runescape is a community why not let the players in this "community" have equal and fair say on the matter.

if you guys go to youtube and type in the words " Runescape " notice all the videos that pop up 80% of them are all pvp! runescape lives off of pvp we want it back the way it was. people want to risk there money to actually gain something not waste there time gaining ep and all that bs.. bring it back everyone vote is we unite we can succeed.

and for all players saying we need 2 optiions there is....
Yes.... for pvp
dont vote for no... its that simple are you dumb?
face it we will have to adapt to pvp and how it was that was real runescape thats how runescapes popularity grew it was all about pking and trading and having fun. i garentee with this update we will restore our population and continue to grow. please vote stop being ignorant stop complaining about how hard treasure trails will be, people in 07 or 06 and 04,03,02,01 had to do it that way heck that was the funnest part to survive so stop complaining and lets change runescape for the best.
lets give it a try what you got to lose? if something does go wrong jagex can always re-do it.... dont ruin the xmas of other people by complaining most of us pkers have dreamed of this moment to come back so join us... please i hope you understand this statement.... vote now and thank you jagex once again for giving us this opportunity of giving us back old wildy and trade.....

I find it ridiculous that a large majority of you are complaining that if this gets implemented that you may be "scammzorz" or "0mg whut about da botz?".
Get it through your heads...
1. The GE will more than likely stay.
2. Jagex will not stop the battle between them and the bots.
Your points are invalid.

@Ozymandius62
you have some very insightful thoughts about these topics and i second you on all of them except your last statement.
i think that if jagex physically market in-game gold peices to the players it will completely contradict the fact that you start off as a poor villager and need to work your way to riches and power. if gold is marketed by jagex it will also remove the "free" feeling of the game. players would rather take the easy route of spending a mere $5.99 for a few mill for supplies, armour, weaponry or food, instead of actually working for these gold-pieces as was intended by the game makers themselves.
