What are you talking about? Since the GE, there have been more bots, they can finally sell their items with ease, and not only that, they are more harmful than ever. They have reduced prices of Ore, Fish, and Wood, but haven't been dumping stuff like dragon armor in there so it continues to stay overpriced. 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.

To be honest bring it back please. If people want to spend real cash on a game to get more in game cash let them. It's there choice I never understood what's so wrong about it.
About the free trade please bring it back. But keep the GE for easy buying and keep the "loan" option so people can still borrow items :) .
About scamming, you need be to be at least 13 before you can play this game. And before you can actually be scammed you are older and know more about this game. And you can always check the price on GE and be careful when trading. It is your own fault if you get scammed.
About wilderness, there was always something exciting when you entered it for doing a clue or just getting somewhere quickly. But it just sucks now, revenants aren't dangerous... you get away from them easily since you can use protect against them with a 100% resistance against a type of attack so it can't "freeze" you. And don't remove Clan Wars when wilderness comes back, because you can go all out there without risking worthy stuff. So make like a special clan wars world?
So my vote on the question would be a yes.

Ugh Jagex the voting system is the stupidest thing ever. I have had friends happily tell me that they entered my name as a vote. WTF?! If the wildy did come I might not like but I'd accept it... IF THE VOTING WAS FAIR INSTEAD OF:
"Hmm I really want the Wildy back. I'll just go onto the hiscores and type in the name of every single effing person I see :D "

Well here is my opinion.
I am half and half on this deal here I would love the old wildy to come back and be able to go pking on any world in the wilderness but the free trade will most definatley ruin the rest of the game botters and macroers will go nuts like they were before. But then you need to take into consideration that all the botters will be paying for membership and that makes Jagex the $$$$$ so they are gonna obviously make it happen.. But I guess I will just have to deal with it.

If pk'ing were sooo popular among runescape members then why dont the pk worlds stay packed ? It's simple****'ers want more victims and freedom to camp out in wildy to wait on unsuspecting members who are trying to get to a training location or run a clue. In the real world it's called being mugged lol.
A clan can leave a few members running around in wildy without equipment on so nothing lost while they wait. In come the legitimate members wanting to train and the alert goes out as to lvls, equipment the members seem to be carrying, and they can actually look u up on hiscores to see what kind of fight they may be facing. Then here comesthe group made of mages, rangers and melee fighters in a wide range of lvls. Since the legit members didnt come for a fight .. the pk'ers will get first hit /strike.
Another technique is wait at green dragons until a player or players gets into trouble with revenants or weakened by the green dragons. A freeze spell placed on a member while he/she is fighting the green dragon guarantees the dragon will kill u. I once saw a mid lvl mage take out 4 players that way, freeze and let dragons kill them.

I am in SUPPORT of bringing this back.
I have never gone PK'ing. I would enjoy the opportunity to be able to in the future, classic style. This is a WEAK reason to bring these back.
My STRONG reasons for bringing these back are much more serious:
> 1. Scamming is GOOD!
---- Yes, scamming is good! I have learnt many lessons on RS, a vast majority of them after something bad happening. I find myself very fortunate to have been scammed away from mere pixels rather than scammed from real life cash. It was hard, but I learned!

> 2. Merchant clans will be completely disposed of!
---- These clans have ripped people off from much more than an old-age scam would do. Where a mere few k may have been scammed before, 100% of total bank value is being taken away from unbeknown individuals. You are able to bounce back from old-age scams. Merchant clan scams are much more difficult to bounce back from*
*
***; 3. Clue Scrolls are once again more dangerous!
---- Since the invent of 100% treasure trail reward, shouldn't there be a bit more risk? I think so. I like a challenge. Other players don't like a challenge. They can go play another area of the game. After all, there's plenty left to do.

Obviously, there has to be many constraints on this update so that RS doesn't slip into its' old ways, but I believe RS now is just as bad as it used to be. The only exception is that primary training areas have fewer (but still existent in the thousands) bots now than before, but there are so many training areas now, this should NOT be a problem.

I only hope that GE manipulation will be completely removed also. If so, VOTE YES!

I definately believe that reverting the trade system aswell as the wilderness back to it's former status would be a bonus towards the community, and raise popularity of the game. It teaches life lessons about marketing, trust, and honesty. If we can't learn these things through a game, where will we learn it? Also it will allow players to help out other players. I vote yes, we should allowe free trade and old wilderness
