Ulovekate--
All that counter shows is that SOME NUMBER less than or equal to (face it; less than) whatever it's at now, like 1.6 mil, want the reversion. The only question is WHAT the real number is. From the evidence amply represented on this thread I'd guess (admittedly wildly) that there are probably like 5 votes counted there for every person (not "account" or "screen name" but person) who wants this.
Between people voting all their accounts (thought we were only supposed to have one according to the rules but oh well...), creating multiple new accounts just to vote them, voting other people's usernames (gleefully, I might add), duping fools in the GE who don't care about it to go vote by autotyped spam, and no doubt other frauds and cheap tactics I'm leaving out, and considering the absolute RABID fanatacism demonstrated by many who want this to happen, it has to be at least around 5 clicks per actual person voting.
Sure, some will have class and vote once and only once. But the fanatics will sit and vote as many times as they cast High alch spells. We're all trained to repetetively click for hours at a time. And lets not forget computer aids to repetetive tasks, shall we say.
Every tactic I'm citing has been demonstrated here multiple times.
Notice I'm not including voting made up names or the same name multiple times, since I'm reasonably convinced that doesn't work. I also didn't mention all of the COMPLETELY UNINTENTIONAL, I'M SURE phony aspects of the poll itself, like the original design of the "Vote Yes" button being misleadingly labelled "Vote Now."
It's just precious and cute to see all these people that previously had no respect for or confidence in Jagex's decisions or management suddenly so confident in the validity of a poll specifically created completely differently than a normal Jagex poll, and in Jagex's candor and ability when they say they will be doing a much better job controlling bots from now on.
Just priceless.

Ok jagex so a few things. First off I know you wont do this and your just trolling the runescape community because you will have pending lawsuits put back on you for allowing real world trading again.
Second, your way of voting has so many faults. The count goes up if you vote multiple times, and you can vote with runescape names that dont exist. And I dont know or think that it keeps track of this.
Third, by making the morons of the game think that you are going to allow this practice to occur again, you are messing up the runescape economy. Since doing this, almost every valuable item has crashed exept for ones that would be used for the wildy.
If you went so far as to limit to only 4 worlds for party drops due to fears of real world trading, I shure as hell know that you wouldnt allow free trade and old wildy again.
So please stop this april fools joke in december, let the runescape community know that this was all but a ploy for laughs for your staff, and let everyone get back on with their lives.

be11y i want to add something to you "speech"
i think that jagex know what is the best for economy and for the game.
so when they get problems it is their fault not ours!
and i think very much players like the update,
I don't think this is a joke otherwise half runescape will stop playing.
so i think they thought of all the points you noticed!

You people must be morons. Half of runescape wont quit if this update doesnt happen. If thats the case they wouldnt be playing now. So lets be real and not a 13 year old kid with a narrow mind.
Lets have a little history lesson. In the past with no trade limit, and the wildy, there were goldfarmers. Who would farm either gp, or items, and sell them for real money. This caused multiple lawsuits upon jagex due to little kids stealing their parents credit card and buying these *tems. Also there was scamming, where players would be scammed out of rare items, or scammed into the wildy and killed for all their items. This cause many people to quit rs.
Since then, less bots, less gold farmers, less scamming, and a more stable runescape economy.
Once again, half of runescape will not quit if this update doesnt happen because they would of quit 2-3 years ago when it went away in the first place. And also jagex does not want to deal with these lawsuits again because once they come our rates to play runescape as members will go up to help them pay for lawyer fees, and settlments they would have to pay for allowing real world trading to exist once again.

I still don't like it the "voting system" gets pruned by programs that grabs players name from the highscores and the counter it ticked like 100 a second and you Jagex knows it's happening. I already seen a print screen someone posted on a comminity how it looks like, but since I can't share it here I won't. Also ramdom people can vote for other people who don't play anymore or don't agree with this. Why are you doing this Jagex?
Why no login required? That's nonsence! If players want to vote for (in my eyes still a big fat lie because what Andrew told us in the past) and don't remember thiere ******** anymore, they can still recieve thier account back the old fansion way.
But if Jagex really want to intent to downgrade RuneScape and open the gates again for the problems RuneScape sufferd from before 2007, go ahead. I don't want to waste my energy for this madness anymore.

I think there is a real confusion between "Wilderness" and "PvP"

Killed on the way to a KBD trip? Irritating
Teleblocked while trying to craft some nature runes? Annoying
Lured into the wilderness with a rare item? Enraging
...
Killing someone and getting the items they have? Priceless

since the removal of the wilderness runescape has never been the same... for so many including myself "pking" in the wilderness was the main aspect of the game, the new ways of pvp cannot match the old ways of the wilderness before its removal, i have some things i would like to share about the topic though.
if you are infact bringing back the good ole days, please concider this...
it would be a waste of time to bring back the wilderness if it wasn't COMPLETELY brought to its first ways, such as the old looting system, getting what the player was weilding/carrying, item protection the level 25 prayer is currently useless and should become a factor of the gain once again, safe zones (get rid of them)
the wilderness is a place for the strong to triumph and the weak to perish, though old school pking will forever be changed by higher levels, stronger gear and new style,
the wilderness SHOULD be brought back to its original state... so i ask you jagex please return the gameplay that we pkers crave!
