Okay, I agree with Lee-Gion:
1) The voting method isn't even legitimate: anyone can go and type in anyone's name and vote. Even if IP addresses are locked out, it isn't that hard to reset it. Not only that, but there isn't a "no" button, so you really don't know whether some people really don't care or not. Also, the vote is for both free trade and the Wilderness; some players might not want both.
2) Free trade is going to be a disaster all over again. My bet is that there is going to be a huge influx of scamming reports and people complaining. In addition, what will happen to the G.E.? Most likely it will have to be shut down due to the constant changes in price. However, I can see the upside of this: if Jagex can correctly monitor market prices and instill them into the Grand Exchange, then this would be widely accepted, due to the conveniences of it.
3) While the Wilderness might make a few players happy, it will only annoy all the other players trying to carry on with normal activities. Treasure Trails, Clan Wars, Stealing Creation, Mage Arena and all other activities situated in the Wild will become lethal. Players want to go have fun, not get barraged on the way to a war. Even though members have teleportation devices to make heading to such places much more convenient, everyone on a free-play world will have to walk all the way there. Personally, I like to have a peace of mind that I'm completely free of attack from other players anywhere I am (excluding mini-games). I mean, aren't Pvp and Bounty worlds enough. Not to mention, if half the worlds were "wild-only", there would be twice as many players doing "normal" activities in the wild (green dragons, King Black Dragon, Corporeal Beast, Etc).
And no matter what happens, Wilderness/Free Trade or not, please don't complain. Jagex isn't stupid; they take everything into consideration and if you don't like it, don't play. Please have some courtesy for your fellow players. :)

@weng your crying over it being a full combat game now? seriously dont make stupid posts. the wild takes up less than 10% of runescapes total map, so really dont even argue such a stupid point.

i just dont know what to think, i mean if it comes back yea h we can keep GE, but the bots man, they WILL come back, you cantr say they wont, and man they ruined everything, you can say that everyone pked and runescape revolved around it but your wrong, you got your items usually from other skills b4 heading into pk world, bots ruined your time to get to that point, and further. near on impossible to get to 99 woodcut and mining, bots would just spam the spawn, the owners wouldnt care if they died, theyd just send them back instantaniously. you couldnt win.
on another note, am i going to get banned for trading 10mil between me and my mate, jagex thinking im real world trading?

Weng,
The way it is now its making more money in the game coming from nowhere, the old way people were able to pk the armour ppl had on there body, thus transferring the wealth and leaving things in the game the same. Thus itll actually help repair the economy, not hurt it.

Argh. I'm tired of seeing the same arguments going around and around.
Pros-
Wilderness:
-It will bring an element of fun and danger back to Runescape that I found it lacking recently.
-Another sense of challenge will be bought back into the game, where the Wilderness becomes a true place of attempting to survive.
-More opportunities for people to work together to a common goal, either setting out to attack people or trying to defend people while they go about business in the Wilderness.

Open Trade:
-I'll be able to buy items for what I think it's worth, not what Jagex says it is worth.
-Profitable skilling will be easier. Skills like Herblore and Summoning have a chance of giving profit.
-No more 'junk' trading.
-Freedom to give items to friends.

Cons-
Wilderness:
-Players who need to enter the Wilderness from various tasks become more under threat.
-Real World Trading may become a problem again.

Open Trade:
-Scamming will become slightly more easier.
-Real World Trading may become a problem again.
-A possible influx of bots.

Obviously every single one of these has a counter-argument and I myself will be willing to respond to any argument for or against the update.

I hope you understand and see what I mean. I had no idea of this conniving and maliciousness intent from people.
Pazamomma mentioned in this forum regarding people, (heh, imagine that, even for this) making several accounts, just to be able to 'take advantage' of voting.
I can only hope you can somehow sort out this amazing messed up realization of people trying to do this.
People who do not want to be fair in any way shape of form. Constantly trying to be doing wrong.
I can only hope maybe you can find some way to (whoa)see who is who with all their accounts.
How sad. my god. its so strange and messed up. from these strange unforgiving degusting bad attitude type of people. I have to wonder if Jagex even realizes this type of strange and unual type of submissions from type of people. And their way to cheat to get ahead.
Seems like things like this gets out of hand.
Good luck reading all of these replies. wow. lol.

@marg, there are over 5million rs accounts, more than half of those accounts are inactive and people wont know their rsn's
Yes the vote may be unfair in some ways but its alot more fair than people are saying it is.
Think about this, all the accounts people dont know rsn's for will be considered a "no" those accounts represent more than 50% of all rs accounts, so the active accounts need to make more accounts to even have a chance.
Also when pking was taking out, THERE WAS NO VOTE. so for all you people crying about it, pkers had to deal with it then, we did, suck it up and stop crying, its your turn to lose somthing fun to you about the game.
