Like...."Hey you! Yeah, there's some nice treasure deep in the wilderness that I can help you get. But there's some monsters, so you're going to want to bring your best armor. Oh and there's a fee to get in so bring all your money, too."
Noob: "Uh...Okay!"
So then they venture into lvl40 wilderness where the pker kills the noob.
Noob: "I thought I could trust you!"
Yeah sure. Trust someone who is bringing you into the wilderness where you can lose everything in your inventory, telling you to not only bring your best armor, but all of your money. Please, who would fall for that?
You guys have obviously been lured plenty of times if that's what you think.

khanbibi your pathetic just like your opinion. join the majority leave the minority. 90% of those people didnt vote YES for nothing. thats how the game WAS and how it should of STAYED. get over it. by the way, ill take great pleausure in killing each and every person on a clue, runecrafting, getting god capes whatever it may be for first making this vote more difficult and second just being ridiculous. GOODLUCK.

Thanks A WaterNoose for saying what we expect of the pvpers, you are what is wrong with runescape. Your game fun comes at the expense of others you love to be able to ruin the game experiance of other newer players.
That is bad for jagex business since that can deture new players from sticking with the game and a long term subscription.

heero you are pretty dumb...
I never said that I lure ppl..I don't. I'm just saying that if some noobs are going to ignore ALL of the warnings and venture into the wilderness, they better be prepared to die. If not, well then that comes at a price. It's not fun to get lured. I've been lured once. I wasn't mad just mad at myself for falling for it. Then I learned. For some noobs in RS that's the only way for them to learn not to trust anybody in RS, especially if they're telling you to go into the wilderness with your valuables. I mean really, what do you need, a huge sign that says, "I'm a lurer, don't trust me I'm gonna kill you"

Players that lure others are very convincing at what they do it's a scam that was common place before the wilds were taken from pkers. The only reason that pkers want the change is they are tired of playing with people that know and understand the risks.
This game is geared twords players of all ages, it attracts a lot of young gullible kids I've played and taugnt many kids how to play the game in the past cuts into my progress but it makes the game more enjoyable to them.
My problem with the wilds is it gives people the tool they need to lure again warnings don't work when you believe the person you are playing with is a friend that wants to help you. I've watched kids time and time again begging for their equiptment back from a pker that had a succesful lure only to quit the game in frustration.
Is this really the atmosphere jagex wants to reinvite players need to learn from their stupid mistakes but it shouldn't be left up to other players to jump on noobie stupidity to teach them the lessons.
I'de say the noobs are being lured into voteing yes based on the numbers, stories of fun and excitment of the old wilderness not being told the real risk that the old wilderness possed. You should be happy for newbies they seem to be the deciding factor giving the yes votes a huge boost; that and the multi accounts.

First of all Heero, if the kid is under 13, he/she is technically breaking a rule...but no one follows it so I guess it doesn't matter.
Second of all, sometimes those gullible kids you were talking about just need a kick in the butt to teach them to either stay away from the wildy or "Proceed with caution."
It would be great if each new player was told to never follow someone around in the wildy, but we can't all have that, huh?
It might even teach the kid a life lesson, who knows? Stay away from strangers and NEVER follow them around to someplace where you don't know where you are.
It's the kids' choices to wander into the wilderness at their own risk, I have always noted the warnings and the skull and crossbones at the bottom corner of the screen. Apparently a lot of kids need to pay more attention to their surroundings.
Free trade and wilderness come at somewhat at a cost, but with it in place there will be a lot less noobs because they will learn from their mistakes and become experienced much more quickly.
Lurers are bad but on the other hand, we can't just hold new players' hands the whole way through the game; that would be boring and a lot less fun for the new player not being able to make his own choices and explore on his own.

I'm only saying it shouldn't be left up to other players to take advantage of a noobs stupidity, you can't hold their hand the entire game. The mistakes should be theirs to make and learn from. It shouldn't be for another player to decide they can take advantage of the noobness for the lesson to be learned.
It's like saying hey the kid shouldn't be jumping on the bed I'm going to make sure he falls off and gets hurt to teach him that jumping on the bed can hurt you. What better way to teach someone not to do something than to cause them pain, discomfort, or unhappiness.
Hell lets take that philosphy to the real world lets just start shooting people for being stupid it'll make the world a much better place no more crime everything is peaceful the world gets along.

i should bring the old wildy back , it was the main reason why i played runescape and you made a lot of friends with it. Now there are new update's for not getting scammed when traiding and gravestones so they cant get your items.. and there are still a lot off botters but you dont know it are now main accounts who are botting. so bring old wildy back please =D

If pvp is someones sole purpose to playing the game they have pvp worlds that accomodate you and your desire to fight with others.
I can spell out the difference between a pvp world and the old wild here it is pay attention it's very hard to figure out.

THERE ARN'T GULLIBLE PEOPLE TO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF ON A PVP WORLD
