Like several other people, I think we should have a few more choices than just two. I don't think the Wilderness and Free Trade should be packaged as one option.
I would prefer the Free trade return, but I like the current setup of the Wilderness in game as it is. I think leaving the Free Trade and Wilderness separate would be best. So, the voting should have have Free Trade alone, the combo, nothing, and Wilderness alone as the minimum amount of choices.
Should the Wilderness come back, because of course everyone wants free trade again, I will agree with Zypher X in the 3rd post on page 500. He had a very good idea for the structure of the Wilderness when (if isn't going to be a question if Jagex is being truthful because free trade will be voted back) it comes back.
Good idea Zypher X, page 500, 3rd post.

TBH, I pretty much skipped green dragons entirely. I've probably killed fewer than 10 greens ever. Spent plenty of time on blues though. Maybe I just missed them by chance on slayer tasks, because of the master I was using or something.
Which reminds me, I also don't get the argument against reversion that we need the wildy for slayer tasks. Seems like any monster you get assigned that can be found in the wildy can also be found somewhere else. I've never used the wildy for slayer much that I can recall.
Not to be construed as support for reversion, of course, but I'm pretty much done arguing that point. Now I'm just trading insults with the other side...

Ajax--
Their determination to link the two ideas has been bugging me for a while too. I can't help wondering if their hot shot new "bot detection system" somehow needs the wildy in order to function, since I mostly see the bot problem linked to the free trade concept.
Maybe it's that killing people for their stuff is closely related to the ability to trade large values of stuff. IDK.

I'm fine with the return of free trade, but the return of the old wilderness? No.
I see a few problems with its return:
1- It'll be impossible to finish clue scrolls
2- It'll be nearly impossible to finish quests INVOLVING the wilderness (i.e. Spirit of Summer)
3- Revenants will be gone
4- The Chaos Elemental will be impossible to defeat because you'd be wasting all your food on trying to survive Pkers
5- Getting to the King Black Dragon will be 15x harder than before
6- All monsters in the wilderness will be in areas that have about 100 Pkers waiting for their next victim

All in all, I'd say that if the Old wilderness should return, I'd say it should be in a PvP world.
Regarding the drops you normally get in PvP worlds, you can probably get the drops outside the wilderness. When entering the wilderness, your victim drops all but his/her three most valuable items like old times.
Let me know what you think! This is just my little suggestion on what you can do with the possible return of the old wilderness. :)
Something's happening. I'm not the Jedi I should be. I want more. And I know I shouldn't.

you already have worlds that you can pk in. why bring back the wild when you have solved the problem already. as a 138 player i can go into the wild without concern and protect myself or kill potential would be killers but that isnt the point. you did a great job fixing the problem with most issues being revisited. i hope that this isnt motivated by financial reasons.
i vote no to bring the wild back in all worlds. have it be in certain worlds and leave those players to themselves.

If you didnt play this game before 07 change then YOU wouldnt agree with wildy i have done clue scrolls in wildy with no problems and people are acting like right when you go into wildy somebody is gonna pk you its rarely that a pker is in a random worlds looking for people. Plus its unfair to have it in certain worlds cause they used to be in all worlds so they should have free trade in some worlds also?.
