ive been waiting for this to happen since the day they changed it! most people voting no will be the ones who didnt experience the old wildy, and the excitment of it. Jagex finally got it right, they are asking us the runescape comunity to choose what we want, did they ask us when they first changed it? no! cant wait until the old wildy is back!

I have been playing since 2006. I remember my absolute frustration trying to train runecrafting in the beginning. I am not much of a pker. Not only does the lower speed of my computer slow down my actions, but I don't have the fast reflexes required for this. I am very much not looking forward to the possibility of the old wilderness being forced back onto me.
As for free trade, how will this work with CS? I am not wholly against the free trade, but there was no way to differentiate between these two on the vote.
Please don't force this on us.

@Phthartic
To answer your question about manipulator clans being killed off with free trade, the answer is easy. There will be a universal price which the majority of players will agree on. The majority of players are not in manipulator clans and hence, will only know the universally majority price. This price will be created by the majority of players and the players will have decided this price.
The manipulators can buy as many as they wish, however since ge prices will no longer rise or fall due to people working on a majority agreed price, manipulators cannot expect to sell the item for their price since it'd be quite above the universally accepted price.
Secondly, how would manipulators let 100k+ or so people who aren't even in the cc know that they're raising the prices beyond what the majority agree on? No one outside of the manipulator clan would know what price they're trying to sell it for. They could try spamming in ge or whatever but that won't let a majority of people know that the price is rising and I'm sure Jagex wouldn't give such people an omni message to everyone to let all players know that manipulators want to up prices. Even if they did let others know, people would likely say, "Get stuffed, that's too high for that item." If the majority are selling an item for 5 mill, no one will buy for 7 mill from manipulators because they can get it for 5 mill. Sure, they can attempt to hoard but there will be far more items entering games from people who are unaware of anything but the majority accepted price and hence, will sell for that price perhaps even outside of ge and hence provide people with items far cheaper than hoarders and in greater supply. Such clans represent a minority and would not be able to keep up with the supply from the majority, rendering hoarding ineffective.
Hence why manipulator clans didn't exist before trade limits. =P I hope that I've answered your question.

i have been playing this game ever since i had a computer and i joined up in 2002 and missed all the good drops. to be losing the willdy is like the holiday drops all over agean. when im in the wildy now and see some low level player with a party hat i always wonder if i fallow them i could get it. or if i saw a level of my own id wonder is this going to be a fun challang or total dispair. as for free trade i think it should be brought back because me and my girl frined in real life play this. i met her in 2005 and told her about this game. whats the point of play with friends and loved ones if you cant buy them stuff for a quest or give them really rare stuff that you all readdy have and dont care to make money. thats the runescape i fell in love with, not this new one where we are controlled by prices and who we can kill. i am a skiller so my combat level is low for how old the acc is, but still i do skills for fun not to make money. when it came to the willdy me and my girl frined where always hunting players down or leading them to a trap because she was such a low level at the time. so i say jagx you need to bring that back YOU ALSO NEED TO BRING THE BLACK HOLE BACK! best way to ban someone ever loved that about jagax! but now you do this new baning deal. stick with the old way dont give them 1 2 3 4 5 6 dealy stop at 2 and if they have a 3ed they get banned for life along with the ip. :P ^_^
