To start, for all of those saying that they should bar the newest accounts from voting I say use some rational thinking. Have you ever made a pure or know someone that has? Well you are looking at that example. I have been playing since '05 and I know all the good and bad of the old wilderness but dropping the crib sidings allows for the true feeling of an MMO to be revived. Another point, if the loss of players after '07 really did hit the numbers hard, why on god's green earth would they limit it to the select section of players that stayed? Jagex would be asking to be rejected in that sense. As for the update, I am all for it. I was a hardcore merchanter that played by the rules back in the day. Buy a few pieces low and sell the set high. We went by the street price, not a risen merchant clan price. When new content came out, we kept prices stable,too. Not drop our DFS in for minimum to run and a get a dragon defender. Another point to hit on is the botters. Yea, they exist and we all know it. We the players also have our arsonal, the report abuse button. Now, instead of the old w2 fally park trade, botters just throw their junk in for a %5 lower price than their macro'd item and go to town rather than sit and sell 200k yew logs. Now, with the removal of limits, comes the implication of price evaluation. The few botters that make it past the new defenses of mouse repetition detection, walk pattern warnings, and our own report abuse buttons will have to do their own pricing. The G.E. didnt build the bots in numbers but gave them a way for selling their botted items. As for the wilderness.. Long live pking!!! I was a hardcore pker back in the day and there is no other feeling than having to chase your opponent from 32 wilderness back to the line of solitude rather than have them stand right next to it since every pker in RS is standing in that same area only in 2-3 other worlds. Opinion is opinion, but irrationality is irrationality too. Jagex knows their own game.
