"For the first 5 years of this game the wildy operated fine. Im sick of people saying well I like to quest and skill in the wildy.
HELLOOO people did that! Its not like it was a completely disfunctional zone. People say well its gonna be hard to do the quests now. Thats good, the game should be a challenge."
I truely <3 u
Half the ppl whining werent even on when this stuff existed and cant comprehend that these things existed before wildy was nerfed.
Trade limits on the other hand have always hurt those who hate quest and simply skilled or pked and are an abomination to what runescape was getting rid of them will encourage learning on everyone's part again*

<--- From Jakedd
And honestly, that’s my main issue with this whole thing. Do you guys honestly have plans for how this reimplementation would work? Do you have good ideas already developed for how to merge the G.E with the availability of free trade? Do you know what you do with the new PvP things that have been developed since the death of the Wild (gravestones, minigames in the wild)? Do you know for a FACT that you have programs in place that can stop the surge of new bots? (because honestly, maybe you just feel that you have great programs in place now but are slightly disillusioned by the fact that most were implemented around the time free trade was nerfed, thus killing the need for so many bots) My issue is just that right now, you haven’t given us very much information on how this would work.
Things that make me feel slightly positive towards the changes though:

Calming said, page 343:
Free trade could go a long way to put an end to merch clans controlling the economy if we lose our dependence on the GE and start trading with each other instead, setting our own prices and offers.
-
Maybe both systems are broken, but which of the two would you prefer? Free trade and Wilderness PKing at least gives the game more interest and challenge. Maybe it won't be all about who bought what skillcapes anymore. Less focus on 99s and more focus on gameplay has to be a good thing.
-
Tbh, I'd much rather bargain with a woodcutter than put in an order on the GE.
And with Wildy back, think how much your potions and food will be in demand. Skilling makes a comeback.
--end.quote--
Yes. If they brought back the Wilderness there would naturally be things that go back to being more dangerous. It would be different, but people would again adapt. I would say that the main argument for bringing it back is the fact that people miss that feeling of risk and challenge of succeeding in old school Runescape.

also there are some people that hate questing with a passion but want to use vannka for a slayer master.
him and turael and the ancient cavern one are the only slayer masters you can get to without a quest and you have to be at least 115 cb level and have 75 slayer to get the shilo guy's daughter to be your slayer master.

but to use the others you have to quest sorry.

I am totally in favor of bringing back the original Wilderness AND Free Trade. For all of you who don't agree with returning free trade, hear me out.
We have all been scammed before, yes? Of course we have.
However, we as players NEED to learn from our mistakes! In the real world, people are scammed all the time. It is our job to recognize our faults, and to act accordingly by not repeating them!
Furthermore, with the bright flashing red exclamation points, in addition to the not one, but TWO trading review screens, it is impossible for CAUTIOUS player to be scammed!
Admit it guys and gals, you were scammed because you didn't take the time to READ your screens. You were so excited about receiving your first "Rune" scimitar that you immediately clicked 'Accept' without a glance. (I know I did.)
Still don't agree with me?
When you rode your first bike without training wheels, did you fall? Most of us would say we did. We would also say that, without a doubt, we were overwhelmed with joy when we pedaled down that pavement for the first time, flawlessly. Now imagine if those training wheels were NEVER removed. Would you ever learn to ride that bike by yourself?
You would be so content with those training wheels that even the thought of taking them off would seem stupid. I mean, you're so used it now, why make a change?
EVERYONE has forgotten the FREEDOM that RuneScape's trading system once had. Do you recall when Trade Limits first came out? There was an outrage! Riots were held in Varrock Square! Over time though, we all got accustomed to the limits, forgetting what we once held dear. Would this be the first time? Of course not.
Recall when the RuneScape Font was changed. How about the God Sword animations? The menu tabs? You may believe that these updates were simply 'minor', but a minor update here and there, and RuneScape could be a totally different game. DO your own due diligence...stop depending on the 'STATE' to protect you.

Calming, I'll be honest. Yes, I'm mad. Probably more mad than I have been in a long time. If the wilderness and free trade comes back, then so be it. I can adapt, I always have.
This stupid poll ticks me off though, and all the arrogant players and petty arguments tick me off. It's like I'm playing Runescape with a bunch of super-seniors who keep failing Speech class.
All I want to see is the poll removed if Jagex doesn't plan to actually use it, or fixed if they do... and I want to see everyone stop biting off heads because people DARE have their own opinions.
