I feel The same way about the GE staying and Free trade to come back. For the Wilderness I don't quite know yet like the first forum Moderator's reply to this thread said I really wouldn't want all the old scamming back in business either. Free trade might improve things some? I've been seeing a multitude of real world trading selling or buying of accounts the advertising of websites and whatnot which concerns me as a player ;) .

If the wildy is to revert to the bad old days, please specify the rules. In the bad old days pkers did not have access to the powerful new weapons that have been released over the last couple of years.
Ever since it was discovered a low combat person could take out nomad with spirit kyatts, these summon creatures have been used by pkers. The wildy will not be a level playing field - the imbalance too great - the risk too high. Such that non pkers will not go there. No clue, no penguin, no adze, no Bork will be worth the risk of 1 hit kills from pk ambushes with claws, chaotic weapons, overload potions and summoning creatures. The 'good old wildy' days will only be that if the new game content of the last few years is TOTALLY removed from it.
To non pkers the current fuss is about pkers wanting to beat us up and steal our stuff as we go about having fun in rs. They (pkers) are bored, not bothering to try out all the great game content that has been able to be developed, because resources were not diverted to fighting RWT, saying its no fun if we cant kill the skillers. Why cant they kill other pkers - oh thats too scary, other pkers know how to fught back and might me!! No rs is only fun if we can kill noobs and skillers and steal their stuff.
I've enjoyed masses of the new game content over the last couple of years and was over the moon when old wildy and free trading was restricted. We were promised that no matter what it was not coming back.
The main argument seems to be that pkers want bigger loot and easier kills. Killing other pkers is too hard and risky, they want easier kills. Change the reward system in pk and bounty hunter worlds then, dont mess with the great game rs has become in non pk worlds.
This whole debate has become destructive and rs will lose players either way now. This was a very badly thought out move - it should have been left dead as we were promised all those years ago.

The way I saw it when Jagex removed free trade and killed the wilderness was them taking the easy way out to kill bots and RWT. Botting still didn't stop and RWT still is happening.
Rather many players quit and the game became much less challenging/fun. Its not going to change RWT or Botting much if they re-open the wilderness and free trade so people need to stop complaining about that. They never should have changed it in the first place.
You can't get scammed if you are careful about it. Jagex introduced trade screens a long time ago to help that problem before the g.e. and trade limits. As for wilderness scams, just be smart about it.
Mostly what I hear from the people who don't want things the way they should be are petty complaints about things being a little more challenging. We managed back then, you can learn to manage too.

Yeah those are all topics that matter too but as for Runescape losing players either way I doubt it as to what's going to happen come time after voting ends we don't know... maybe add more to the wilderness keep the rules the same with a few new rewards and whatnot :O . Just a thought but it keeps us hanging in suspense.

I do not know if anyone from Jagex count our oppinion... but..
i'm playing RS many years. I remember well what was before...and i don't feel happy to know that probably it will returns.
the game develops too much, the culture of the players changed...why to make step back?
for sure i will stop to pay membership.. not only to me,. but to all my family- we all are playing RS.. and will wait for better times...if Jagex decide to return the civilisation way to play... i deny to live (even in game) in a primitive world, and to learn my children
to be agressive and trickers!
Sorry, Jagex, but i think it is not a good idea...
If it is possible to make different games, or worlds- ok..
Jagex, i feel disapointed... and can't find no one reason to go back...

Some of you guys should try actually reading what you are voting on. If you look below the voting you'll find information =0. Some of the petty complaints and possible issues are mentioned in the referendum details*

For all you stupid little kids out there, (I'm mad now.)stop being crying little babies about scamming and the wilderness, let me reiterate what JaGeX said: THEY WOULD MOVE ANY MINIGAME OUT OF THE WILDERNESS, THEY WOULD CHANGE UP CLUE SCROLLS (WHICH THEY SHOULDN'T BECAUSE BEING IN THE WILDERNESS CONTRIBUTES TO THEIR DIFFICULTY FACTOR). PEOPLE IN 07 DEALT WITH EVERYTHING YOU BABIES ARE COMPLAINING ABOUT AND NEVER SAID A WORD ABOUT IT.
As for scamming, you literally have to be mentally handicapped to ever be scammed. If you get scammed with the anti-scamming measures they've put into trade screens then you shouldn't be playing because you are 1) Too young, which would explain your stupidity or 2) You have a mental problem that affects the way you make logical decisions. Don't act like you care about other players, either. Humans aren't designed to care about anyone but themselves (or close relatives).
If you're going into the wilderness for a clue scroll, bring only the bare essentials. Don't bring in Full Bandos and a Godsword, you're like a gold mine to PKers. Bring in some robes and a rune scimitar (or Dragon if you're higher level), some food, and a teleport incase things get bad. The zamorak mages aren't hard to fight... By looking like as big of a noob as possible you are lowering your chances of being Pked because PKers will over look you and not even bother with you since you look like a noob. If it makes you feel better you can even unwield your more expensive stuff as this will lower your chances even more because people will see you as just some noob looter,
