Whats wrong with this idea?

Freedom Of Choice......................

Do the Runescape 2007 like you do Runescape Classic!

Then people will have 3 options..............

1. Rs1 (Classic)
2. Rs2 (2007 Version)
3. Rs3 (The way it is now)

This will satisfy everyone !!!!! (except those that wish to harm people or scam them)
Plus moneywise you will not lose many customers this way!

>>>>Bots were a huge problem, but there will always be
>>>>bots... you can't stop them all
However, there is big difference whether there is 1 bot between Lumby and Dranor or 50 bots around every tree between Lumby and Draynor.
I have witnessed Jagex Mod banning 100+ fishing bots in Karamja docks in ONE WORLD. And the place was of course filled again in few hours.
I certainly do not miss those times.

Oh, and in trying to look up the recent poll I recall that asked players what activities they enjoyed doing while playing RS, since I remember PKing being a VERY small percentage, like 10%, I find that the poll archive seems no longer to exist. If anyone can point me to it if I've missed it I'd appreciate it.

I personally voted yes, please i am not saying this to argue at all.I voted yes but i do have some problems with the proposal. I dont like pvp personally, i know kill me alread you pvps lol, but i dont care for it and would hate if the wildy was all pvp on any world. I do like the free trade, trade with no limits, because i think itd be cool to be able to give what i wanted to people instead of being restricted. I have mixed feelings about the GE having no limits. I think its a good way to stop prices from being manipulated too much, but then again it would allow for players to set the prices thereselves and envolve the players more in the economoy again. I am not a player from before the ge but i have heard tales from old RS vets on the game about it. Im really unsure if removing GE limits is a good thing or not and i dont like the wildy being pvp all the time, but i do like free trade. Also i have an idea about this subject. Maybe after you switch the trade. I saw the amount of votes in favor of it on the poll so its goin get passed most likely, maybe after you do it, you could take a poll and see if everyone likes the change back to the old way or if they dont like it, maybe after a week of it being changed or so. I know itd be a lot of work to switch it back probably but its be a way to find out if people are liking it.

I am glad that Jagex is listening to players, but there really should be more than the 3 options given.
There should be individual votes or choices for free trade and the wilderness not just both together.
I'm sure there are many people who want one back but not the other.
Please, take this into consideration.

LOL @ all these 12 year old kids that don't want the wild back. Obviously you all didn't play back in the day. Runescape was awesome before the updates to remove the wild and trade. I'm surprised I even stuck with this game, I for one am so happy its coming back and glad to see all the oldschool pkers coming back!!!! Don't like the update? Quit. That's what 100k+ people did when the wild was removed.

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. It's possible to hit 500s with magic in PvP and 800's with melee. How is that 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.
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. Afterall if everyone had a yak there wouldn't be much point pking in deep wildy.
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. 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.
Summary for Tl;DR If everyone had chatoics, a pak yak, super pray pots and overloads. What would PvP be like?
