My account is roughly 7 years old now, so i was there when the original runescape was about, and i can't say the changes were for the better or the worse due to them being so diverse, each change having a reason and some appeal.
A lot of people are voting blind just for the wilderness of legend although a lot of them were not present when the original wilderness system was around.
I am particually interested in the effect this will have on quests such as Spirit of Summer / Summers' End as well as the effect on revenants.
Another caution is that Green Dragons are currently a very popular money making method among bone sellers reaching 5,000gp per bone, allowing a turn-over of up to 1m per hour, due to this being such and effective and popular method it may be necessary for Jagex to introduce further green dragon spawn areas in none wilderness zones.
Finally, activites such as bounty hunter are to be scrapped, with a possible later recycle date, I disagree with this idea as not all people will enjoy gambling everything and a lot of people do these events for the fun rather then for profit.
Due to this I suggest a similar set up be introduced that would allow the hunting of multiple other players at random due to "Fist of Guthix" and the "Alkarid Duel Arena" limiting to One On One combat and "soul Wars" and "Castle Wars" having an overall goal, distracting from the fun of just killing other players.
"There Is No Hunting, Like The Hunting Of A Man"
These are just my ideas and thoughts on the update, overall I support the idea and expect it to be bumpy for everyone to get back to the Old for some and New for others ways.
Best Of Luck
