@Yeah Its Cal
possibly but i agree, its not like its a matter of national security, it will either happen or it wont, it would be nice, i play less since it have been removed, i wish some of the newer players could experience the old wildy before the placed a vote, the solution would to be open just 1 world of runescape 2006, and not allow account transfer, i don't know if it would work, because most bots wouldn't bother knowing that they wasn't going to get anything, but they could stimulate bots and it might work.

also why would they fix phase two like that, it maybe like i said phase 1 is to rally everyone up, see if there is much of a demand for it.
Then phase 2 will be the actual vote where it makes a difference, so then everyone will get one vote that is registered, it should be no accounts under 30 days can vote,
then everyone will actually vote, think presidents, there's the popular vote, the voice of the people, then there is the electoral vote, the one that matters is the electoral votes, hence the reason Bush beat Gore the first time.

I know. I mean I have been getting on fine without RS from 2006 but It would really make 2011 for me if they brought it all back :) But either way I don't mind. But at the end of the day, it doesn't matter. They never gave us a choice when removing the wildy and free trade, they didn't ask the RWT and gold farmers how they felt about it, so why should it be a fair vote? At least they are kind enough to at least let us feel like we get a choice, but I don't think we do. I think it has all been decided already. Either way, I don't mind. I voted "yes" on all my accounts, but at the end of the day, I don't mind.

I am for this 100% but I do agree with some of the posts here; take the limits off and keep GE and the value system in the trade window. Keeping Grand Exchange will keep the new players happy as they are accustomed to it and bring back smiles on the "old" players.
I started playing RuneScape around 7 years ago and I can honestly say the game has lost that original luster it had "back in the day" but that is usual for anything to do over time. But I can also honestly say that I don't think I'd be where I am today on this game if it wasn't for the gracious attitude of players from the time of no limits. if it wasn't for my old friend dawgsaysftw giving me my first h'ween mask as a gift back when they were 450 - 500k each. I don't think I would have ever got into merching and would never have gotten members after defeating Elvarg.
I don't think I would have even gotten half the quests done that I did without friends helping me get required items. Also I wouldn't have made some of my best friends without free trade. I met one of my best friends on this game by giving her full rune and assisting her with dragon slayer when we met years back. If trade limits existed back then I don't think we would have met to be friends today. And don't forget the real life friends I have gotten to join runescape in the past they wouldn't be on here today if trade limits existed then to stop me from giving them good items and free gold to get started.
So, I say bring back the free trade of the old days and if you bring back the wild I agree with what people have said about doing it only on certain worlds. I like wilderness volcano and fighting green dragons. With them still being in wild and some clue scrolls requiring you to go into the wild I do not think it prudent to change it up to add players attacking you in the only place you can go to fight green dragons.
In conclusion: I voted YES on this proposition and am hoping for the best possible results.
Thanks. ^_^

I am a bit on both sides, because way to many people are so nostalgic about the "good old days"(English is not my primary language)I myself have played since 06 and i didn't like the "wildy" because any attempt on doing clue scrolls would be a pain and all of those pkers that thought they could kill u soo easily, but ended up just wasting half of your food witch i fished myself and at the moment i was only 12 and had the attention span of a squirrel. i think bringing back such a big thing would totally ruin the dynamics of the game and what it is now, b4 voting think about the pros and cons and stop being so nostalgic. thanks for reading my reply probably won't help but anyways happy holidays.
