i agree, if this update is going to be gone forward with it will have to be moulded to fit in with what runescape has grown into since the wilderness was removed. not just activity related worlds, something well thaught out and planned.

Well, There is nothing to say left, Only left to said was, Jagex, You did a good job for prevents unsuspecting players from being scammed, with the trade limit. And the old wildy, I don't do pking much, So I don't really care a lot about it.

@Wish-2-Tank
Yes its true about the 80% all pkers and 20% are normal people..
but tell me runescape said majority of votes win anyways and everyone is going towards pvp.
and for the past 3 years its been your time to have fun doing what you do without wilderness now its out turn the pking family to come back and obtain what we really want about this game pk..... so you tell me if thats not fair... if you rely on a source of money like green dragons thats just how it will have to be... you will have to adapt or find another way. there are plenty of ways to make money such as skilling and pking and merchanting. pking is one of the biggest parts of runescape that everyone loves and till this day it was corrupted i think its time to bring it back. so i feel bad for you 20% you will have to realse thats how it was back then. i hope no one fights over this disicion and you acutally let it happen and see the results. if you never played in 07 or under then dont talk wait for the update and then experiance the update and then tell me if it sucks or not...

Please, I sincerely hope this is a joke.
I started my account long before the current version of Runescape was released, and saw the great rise of bots and RWT firsthand, and it was terrible. Every time you wanted to go to a yew tree you would have to battle hordes of bots.
The wilderness is fine the way it is now. If a person wants to PvP, they can go to a PvP world. Please do not force PvP upon us players that do not enjoy it, I really do not want to have to worry about PvP whenever I want to enjoy a clue scroll or quest in the wilderness.
Also, to me, the Grand Exchange and the removal of free trade was one of the best updates to Runescape. I love the idea of having a general range of the value of items thanks to the Grand Exchange, and know that no matter what resource or item I collect I can find someone to buy it through it.
With the removal of free trade, players can no longer be 100% sure how much they will have to earn to acquire an item. They will no longer be 100% sure that their acquired items will be able to be sold.
One more great thing the Grand Exchange offers is variety in playstyle. Let's say a person really hates mining, but wants to train smithing. Let's assume they also love woodcutting. That person can then train woodcutting which they enjoy, then sell the logs with ease on the Grand Exchange, and use theal money earned for metal bars to train smithing, and avoid the skill they dislike altogether.
These are my thoughts, thank you for your consideration.

i agree, there needs to be some formailty in this voting and i really think that autsinjovi29 is really going somewhere with the logging in to vote idea, to keep this poll fair.
i also think that the voting page should be re-modeled with more detailed options to dampen the side-effect riots that are almost certain to break out, no matter which way this vote goes

at first i thought: this grand exchange is stupid and hard. but after some time i cant imagine not having it.
which leads me to the fact that, yes i want the old free trade back, on one condition. that grand exchange still remains to keep track of the prices going up and down, for all items the way that it currently is. so players know what things are worth, and can trade safely without the risk of being scammed, should they be too afraid to trade openly.
HOWEVER; i absolutely HATE bots, they were a gigantic annoyance, nobody could get certain skills up. i mean lets face it**** is NOT all about pk, and for the people who say it is are ignorant. people bot and sell the cash they earn for real world money. although thats their business and i do not care about that in particular, i do care when it effects my game when im trying to lvl.
how jagex team would take that into account if deciding to re-install free trade and wilderness i truely do not know.

PS:
for the people jumping up and down, dont get too excited saying its coming back. you do understand what a vote is right?

as an old school rs player, I think that it would be so exciting to have the old days back ;) , only bad thing is the ''item scamming'' , thats the reason that make people don't like it.. but ist's easy to fix that, all you have to do is setting a ''time'' to accept the panel when sum1 removes the item or coins plus setting it in red and sounding... that would stop item scamming well.
if you jagez reinsert the old days I know many people that would start playing runescape again.
As old days were best that was the only time I had fun in runescape... good old days :) :)
This is only my opinion :P
