Redem, I made the same comment on another thread. Keep the wilderness, but restrict it to a few worlds. Dragon Bones prices won't skyrocket, and neither will team-capes. The consequences for every action is a huge reaction. Use the creepy wisdom Kreia always told us in KoToR II and think before saying that no repercussions will occur**** will be 500% better, and that removing the wilderness killed the game. I liked PKing too. I have several files just for it, but staking didn't leave, Bounty Hunter came and didn't leave. You've had your wilderness all along.
Soz for bash guys but I really needed to burn the steam on this one minded fourm and idea.

bloodpk, you guys have had the wilderness all along. Bounty hunter, PvP worlds, etc. It's not the wilderness PvP, but its pretty damn close. Boost the economy? How? RS economy is a living breathing thing. Merching Clans don't effect the economy how? bringing back a bunch of players doesn't stimulate it that much, there will always be a bunch of players ready to take their places each day. You really just wanna PK. Look at what the consequences have been from removing it, all positive. Adding it back in will only have negative consequences.
All be ranting all day on this.

Hey first of all i am FOR the PvP update, i've been pking for almost 7 years. However i do think JaGex have to be very careful on what they allow/ dissallow.
Lets start of with chatotics. If they were allowed people would only bring mystics / rune as they don't protect over chatoics and ofcourse you can't smite out a chatoic. This makes the max loot what.... 600k? I have chatoic weapons btw so don't try that one.
Overloads - I almost gurantee people bringing 45 brews to magebank. It used to be a joke to say "50 brews left" now that's possible.
Extremes - puts the release of damage soaking back to square one.
Super prays - not too bothered but it does contrabute to not being able to smite out making the loots awful.
Summoning - Coming from me who has 96 summoning i'de rather not have summoning in the new PvP but it wouldn't cause too much trouble.
From all these problems i really hope JaGex realise and create a few pre 2007 worlds for the real pkers. Afterall these would bring back a lot of oldschool pkers and still allow all the prods to pk in the normal worlds :)
DanSup - looking forward to the real runescape.

100 pages ago, I had made a comparison between Revenants and PKers. Somehow, I don't think that made it through some people's heads. I've finally decided on voting NO for the Wilderness and Free Trade. Sorry PKers, but the horrible experiences back in the old Wilderness is not something I wish to repeat. Calling me a scaredy cat? I wasn't afraid of the fact that I could get my head bashed in the second I step in the Wilderness. No, it was the fact that people turn to much darker things. Ever heard of the Seven Deadly Sins? Here's two for ya. Greed and Sloth. We, the naysayers, are accused of being incredibly lazy by using the Grand Exchange instead of getting the item ourselves. BUT, if you carefully read through the supporters of this update you can usually find this: "u" So, what's bad about this letter? Nothing, but it is used in place of "you". And we're lazy? As for Greed, that's a given. PKers are ALWAYS after something. It's why they pk. The loot makes them quite rich. Of course, this sin is perhaps the most common in the entire human race, but that's not what's being discussed. If you want money, simply skill. Skilling is too boring and doesn't make alot of money? False. Once you have high levels, you can get rich instead of mugging other players. As for the boring factor, this was already explained in my rant about the Sloth sin. More on my anger in the next post...

Yes because everyone jumped for joy the day Wildi was removed. But wait, didn't 60,000 Members quit.
I think the fact that 90% of people have voted in favour for Wilderness and Free Trade proves that Jagex made a mistake, and people were NOT Happy.

adnetwork, It's just like 500 Pkers who are creating a bunch of accounts just to spam up the posts. 11/15 accounts who vote are newely created accounts or multiple accounts of a single person. Because a majority is voting Yes doesn't mean everyone is a different person. I voted one for NO because of what it'll do.
As I want too, Pking is a huge aspect to RS and I loved the glory days, but jumping back three years will really set us back. They want feedback and compromise is what I'm trying to reach here. Don't give us free trade, but move the trade limit up a lot higher. Give us PvP, but restrict it to certain worlds to allow for a stable economy.

Extremes - puts the release of damage soaking back to square one. It's possible to hit 500s with magic in PvP and 800's with melee. How is *hat right? On top of that... vengeance which puts ure max hit above 990hp. Totally gets rid of the skill and enjoyment of PvP.
Super prays - not too bothered but it does contrabute to not being able to smite out making the loots awful.

DanSup - looking forward to the real runescape. I chose to be a pker because it actually takes skill to be good at (not stats actual skill - tactics,taking risks etc) rather than just no lifing to watch a number raise. In the aim to get a pixelated cape that does next to nothing. Pvp used to be like 10% luck, 90% skill now it's the opposite way round.

@ Mischief
Nice to know that many of your friends can not be bothered voting twice except when there is only 1 option. Shows how much the game really means to them.
As has been mentioned recently and rightly, there are players that have replaced the pkers that left when the wildy changed.
The Pkers already have worlds of their own, obviously the pickings are not rich enough for you there, I somehow don't think that other players are going to say, ummm pkers are back better wear my best armour and go for a stroll in the wildy.
I agree with the opions that the pk worlds should be changed to be like the old wildy. Choice for all.
I dont agree with the trade limits changing, players should work for their trade limits, the current system seems fair on that.
Makes me wonder if your name actually says what you are upto.
