@Boombox: There will be ranters and whiners on both sides. There always will be. It's jsut a matter of which side is getting appeased.

@TNC : Scammers used to be quite a large population. Not just large, but of a percentage enough to not be considered a small minority. Not everyone was a serious scammer, but a lot of people did scam.

I have one more question that needs to be answered, what about gravestones? Will it go back to how it was prior to 2007 where if you die, your items appear on the ground for anyone to take? This would be awful considering that we now have quests like "Nomad's Requiem" which make the gravestone almost essential.
I vote a big NO for the return of wilderness and free trade.

A few comments on the vote process.
1. Silence is not an effective vote for No. Those of us who do not want to go backwards do not really have a say.
2. It is too easy to vote yes. I am about to embarass myself by admitting I did not full read the page and clicked vote - thinking it would get me to a yes / no option. How many others have done the same thing and voted for something they definitely do not want!
3. There is no way of voting for only 1 of the 2. Trade may be OK (please do not kill the GE) but a definite no to wilderness - example only.
4. Why can new accounts vote. We are voting for the return of an old system. True new players will not be making informed votes. The only reason for creating an account to vote is to load the system in favour of YES. Is there a great influx of new accounts? If so vote rigging is occuring.
Once again - silence is not a vote!

Hello. I'm your average troll, i live under bridges and eat slop...
Today i've had a good adventure, i went to a website that asked me if I wanted to bring back the trade/wilderness...
Ofcourse, I am a troll, and what do trolls do?
I massively spammed the vote button, but to my suprise, i needed a runescape account name...
I ventured to your highscores, and to my astonishment...
I Found hundreds and thousands and millions of usernames at my disposel and quickly started clicking away..
Oh my gosh that was getting quite hard on my fingers...So i created a MACRO to do it for me...Oh how i loved those hundreds and thousands of votes i just created...
So that was my big adventure... Hope you enjoyed it!

I didn't do that, but millions of people are.

Copy and paste this in your post.

-If you do take away the trade limit leave the grand exchange and item lending. Going around trying find what you want will be to hard.
-Also if you do bring back the old wilderness leave it in pvp worlds like you do now.
-Your leaving out way to much what exactly will happen if the vote is passed, people want to know if the grand exchange will stay please answer our questions.
-I think there should be a re-vote with a NO and YES option for EACH idea not just for both, and instead of just typing in a username make them actually log into their account with only one vote per account.
I know a lot of people feel the same way post this if you like it.
