Losing the old Wildy and free trade, for me, hobbled the game irretrievably. I stopped playing regularly not long after that.
Yes I hate botting and I have to admit that RWT does hurt; but, in the end, gutting the game by removing Wildy/Trade (IMHO) hurt enough to make me quit.
RWT was a real pain but I played around it and it did not push me from the game.
After trade balance, the rules were restrictive to the point of meh to trade at all.
Before the change, the old Wildy was *much* more scary, stressful and exciting than PK worlds.
Unfortunately, I'd like to say that with Wildy/Trade back I would come back but I can't guarantee that... after playing other games with older players it would be difficult to come back to an adolescent-saturated environment. Don't get me wrong - I like kids but it does get old pretty quickly.
Reading most player comments throughout the forum makes me realize why the majority of the gaming world and players don't take RS seriously.
I tell people I'm a RS vet and I defend RS as often as it comes up. But I have no defense against the 'kiddie game' argument - and this is the one that everyone mentions.
When Wildy/Trade comes back; I'd be 100% for converting the PK worlds to normal worlds that are 18+ or 21+ Only worlds.
Anyway to all: Vote yes to restore RS Wildy/Trade as it should be - as I voted!
[90% Yes; 8% No; 2% Meh; Total votes as of now: 378,803.]
