you can't limit old wildy to a few worlds it won't be the same as it is in the old days and people will just cram onto the safe worlds with there cannons at green dragons which just makes it a joke
you want to be safe and do your wild activities take 4 items or less use protect item pray and you'll be fine mining your star or doing whatever your trying to do

I am MOSTLY for Wilderness and Free trade on two conditions
1) Revs need to die or be moved somewhere else. Mining runite and etc is easier with just players attacking due to the obvious white dots, revs have made this harder because we can't tell when they are coming. But both players AND revs?! That's too much and it's not just runite mining, we have business to do in the wildy. Players made it hard, Revs made it harder, having both would make it near impossible.
2) Either Clan War worlds need to be safe in the wilderness (I need to be able to go there from a bank without fearing my life) or they need a bank in there.
Runescape doesn't need a hero...it needs a villain. An all encompassing force of evil that will remain ever-threatening and use chaos to make the peoples of Gielinor tolerate each other, grow strong together, and fight side by side against this evil. I am that villain.

"Idea bump"
---
I'm not expressing my opinion for the poll. Actually, I won't even recognize the poll officially until it's repaired. To hell with voice and opinion, the thing is broken.
1) No pass required. Now I can go and vote for everyone I see in the exchange... everyone in the castlewars lobby. Everyone on the highscores table. Do they all want the Old Wilderness? Or free trade? Eh, who cares! I can vote for them, actually, multiple times!
2) Not being able to say "no." Ok, I GET WHY there isn't a "no" option, but seriously, how can you possibly get an accurate view of what people want, when you have millions upon millions of inactive accounts all defaulting to "no?"
Because of #2, people FOR the "old days" don't stand an icecube's chance in hell in winning the poll, DESPITE #1.
Because of #1, already over a million players have had their voice falsely represented in the cry for change.
Be reasonable, Jagex. This poll doesn't work. Of course I'm in favor of a poll to bring it back- it would benefit the community to know where the majority stands, whether Free Trade and the Wilderness return or not. But for crying out loud, what were you thinking?!
1) Pass-protect the poll. This isn't something you can take lightly. If nothing else changes, THIS IS THE THING TO DO!
2) Find a new voting mechanic. Unless you KNOW how many players are inactive, and delete them from the results, add an option to vote against it.

YES! FINALLY WHAT WE HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR SINCE 10.12.2007 (02 pm, jk)
To all the haters**** and trade limits are at the moment what has ruined runescapes economy, thats why this is needed, also gifts and loot share in wilderness.
"i got scammed, i hate free trading" wtf is wrong with you guyes, runescape is 13+ and regulary older players are playing.. If you got scammed, read a book or something, because you such an idiot!
"then id risk getting killed when doing my lvl 3 clues!" well thats exacly what the point is, lvl 3 clues should be risky, but atm their such a peace of KAKE!!!!!
I personally got heartattack when i saw this, I voted for sure, and i hope yall do the same. This is what runescape was, real pking and real loots, no such thing when you kill a guy in 20m and get steel legs and mithril full helm, does it make sense?
You watched the players playing at the moment? In 2006-2007 it used to be like 300k players on at a time (400k in weekends). Look now? its halfed, and its been like this since jagex removed wildy/stake/free trade etc. LOTS of people quitted, so did i, and i had like 10 friends who played too, every single of them quitted because of this!!!
This was the duty of runescape, it was a harmony of the evil pkers and the cute skillers. Now evry1 turned egoistik, and runescape has turned 3+... you get a frikken warning message every step you make, because you could fell and break your bronze legs.. WTF is wrong? its supposed to be fun and exciting, dangerous. now its safe, secure and locked, like we're all prisoners! -.-

Hell no... make my day, make runescape alive again! LETS PK 4REAL???? <3

Hasta la vista, nerds! Let the game BEGIN!

~~~VOTE~~~

Free Trade would bring back scammers, I'm just throwing this out there but why bring that back? Nobody wants to be scammed!
PvP Wilderness, I beg you to NOT go through with this update. Maybe update Bounty Hunter worlds, so they're just like the Old Wildy? And maybe even make a few more Bounty Hunter Worlds. Doing every world PvP Wilderness would ruin Shooting Stars which are very popular among RuneScape players. I enjoy an occasinal Wilderness star and I know a lot who love a good rev fight. Revs are a lot to worry about while mining or doing other events and quests.
How many people would want to be attacked while goign to SC or Fist of Guthix? A large part of the Beacon Network is located in the Wilderness and being killed while doing the Beacon Network would completly ruin your chance of getting an Adze!
Please consider updating Bounty Worlds to be like the Old PvP Wilderness, instead of making everywhere, every world PvP in the Wilderness!
