Hello! :)
I'm usually a very quiet and reserved player, not usually making much of a fuss, but this is obviously quite a big deal.
I'm very surprised Jagex chose to bring this option to light, assuming its a completely legitimate poll. Even more surprising, I felt Jagex tried so hard to suppress the old wilderness and trade limit due to updates like the Grand Exchange, the quest point trading system, countless wilderness updates (Bounty Hunter, PVP worlds, revanants, etc.), the removal of staking, the encouragement of 'main' accounts as appose to 'pures', and much more.
It just seems fairly ridiculous that Jagex would go to the trouble of creating so many systems against RWI trading and then decide to consider bringing back the three main elements that supposedly caused this; those being staking, wilderness, and free trade which would make these systems basically obsolete (less the GE).
However, I very much enjoyed the old wilderness, trade limit and *taking. I would enjoy seeing these things brought back IF, and only if, its done CORRECTLY. If botters and RWI traders can truly be kept at bay while bringing back these aspects of the game, I say go for it! ;) I enjoyed the thrill of PKing on a large basis, knew the risks, and felt the same with staking.
So if it can be brought back right without seriously disrupting the game such as prices, gameplay, current skills, items (such as extremes, I wouldn't want them removed as I use them for slayer!), or anything else, go for it. I trust you'll make the right decision and listen to the community!

I am very excited about this update! :)
As much as I think the voting system for this doesn't really affect the outcome of this update, I truly do believe the update will happen.
As probably mentioned by other posters, there should be the price shown clearly in the trade screen, but with no trade limits and make something pop up saying "THIS IS WHAT YOU WILL BE RECEIVING IN RETURN FOR THIS: ____", before they accept.
As for the old wilderness, nothing to add to this. Just PLEASE BRING IT BACK ;)
