btw i voted just now and it is no no for free trade and old wildy.

jagex pls hear me out what are you doing???????????????

omg i do not believe this at all and where are you going to locate the revs? i hope you are not going to spring them on the rest of runescape.

plus you do not do such a good job getting rid of the bots there are lots in the game.

where are the green dragons going to be after all this. i really do not want this to go though at all.

there are lots of adults that play runescape and you do not listen to any. you listen to a bunch of kids.

kids only think they know what they want but they really do not know. i urge everyone else who does not want this to say no. no to these changes where is the abyss going to be???????????
also where are you planning on putting the black salamanders also???????????

2 MAIN QUESTIONS WHICH I NEED TO ASK and a suggestion
1. if free trade returns do we really have to go back to typing fast in order to sell/buy an item... a.k.a. too much spam.. :(
2. why can't we vote for yes, no, idc on free trade, then vote yes, no, idc on old wildy to return? why must free trade + wildy return in a whole package?
suggestion- 3. It would take 1min- days in order to sell or buy an item, is there anyway in which ge or anything would assist us in selling our items through it? like a ge related place in which we (the players) can place our items/money in order to sell/buy items while we can still play the game but also we can name our own price on the item, which would relate to free trade but allow us to play the game while we wait for our items to sell/buy instead of typing for hours to reach a goal and gain 0xp while trying to sell an item. (basically keep ge, but we are aloud to put our own price on an item, so players don't get bored of selling/buying stuff through old methods of shouting or "typing as fast as you can&quot ;)
if possible please respond to questions and maybe take into thought the suggestion.
thanks for reading :)

I've tried playing on a pvp world without rev's the pkers have no morals on who they kill, you can be completely defenseless trying to run to the agility course with nothing but food, I got chased from one edge of the wilderness to the other.
What is wrong with you people that want to kill others that arn't interested in pvp but want to enjoy the wilds. Runescape devs need to wake up. You complainging about not being able to pk everyone you please need to grow some balls and go to a pvp world where you can play with others that share your views. Stop trying to make it so you can prey on every single player that steps in the wilds and get a life.
I've talked to many people, little kids that never knew the origional wilds are being told how great the good old days were like a fanciful story. If the wilds go back they are going to find out how crappy the old wilds were. That the old wilds wern't player friendly unless you were an a avid pker. Keep the game fare for players to enjoy the whole of runescape and not have to avoid the wilds because of malicious people wanting to kill anybody that moves.
Save runescape don't superimpose the will of pkers on the ignorant masses.

Alright, I'm completely down for bringing back the old wilderness. Who doesn't like having that fear and knowing that there's a risk of dying every time they enter the wild. Pking to me is one of the funnest parts of this game, and back with the old wild was some of the funnest times I ever had playing this game. However, when it comes to the second part of this whole issue (Free Trade) I am completely against it. I think that things are going fine with money issues as it is with players. I feel that if we bring back free trade the following will happen:
1. An increase in HACKING to steal items from other peoples accounts.
2. An increase in SCAMMING to also steal from other peoples accounts.
3. An increase in BOTTING where people would simply make accounts they do not care about and bot on them to make money to transfer over to another account.
4. An increase in REAL WORLD ITEM TRADING where people who are in no way shape or form part of Jagex LTD. will be making money off of this game.
All I'm saying is the old wilderness is a great idea. The whole issue with EP% in dealing with bounty hunter and PVP worlds kind of ruined the fun of pking. But when it comes to Free Trade I just feel it will bring nothing but bad for Runescape, please think about this. Keep the trade limits capped! :O

I think the real want for pvp is portrayed in the low numbers that play on the pvp worlds. You say it was fun and more exciting to know stepping into the wilds might have been the death of you and that segregating those that want to kill everyone into their own world was a bad thing. It's not fun to pvp with people that acutaly want to pvp so you want to be able to pvp with everyone. It's not right to impose that on the whole of runescape.
With the way it is right now there is something for everyone that has a different play style it's not fair to the average player to take that away from them.
If they are going to do this they should keep some worlds as they are now so players can choose their play style. You have pvp only worlds, you have wild pvp worlds, and you have no pvp worlds, that would make everything fair and keep it so players can pick for their style and enjoyment.

1. where do you cast your vote. I followed the link and it ends in a dead end page.
2. How can you believe everyone wants the wildy to return. Just look at the usage of the pvp worlds.
3. If you want to return the wildy open up a new area that has nothing game related in it. From a programming point of view this would be easier than changing and adjusting the old wildy area.
I hate going out to do another task equiping myself to do it, and have some idiot come along and kill me. I am not in the least interested in fighting him/her.
I activly dislike player vs player, I am a skiller.
Agian I believe the vote to be false. Just look at the usage of pvp worlds and games such as bounty hunter.
Let players vote with their actions. If pvp worlds are constantly full with something other than bots. Then consider a return to the old wildy.
If however you want to do the wildy how about UNLIMITED bank space to go with it. NOW THAT I CAN SUPPORT.
Then at least I could have wildy gear. that I wouldn't mind losing.
How about adding another roster with the friends and ignore list. that automatically lists everybody who killed you. That always, they can't block, shows when they are logged in and what world they are on so you can return the favor and hunt them.

i agree with you heero.
there are a lot of others that think of doing slayer task.
because vannka sends them to the wildy to kill greens ect.
what about the air oblisk i go up there to charge air orbs. not only it is great crafting and mage exp it is great money too.

why make the pkers and merchers happy i say no to both it is not fair that they want the rest of runescape to bow to them it is not going.
