Yes, why dont Jagex implement an update to satisfy both sides? Those who want current trade limit and wildy can have it, and those who prefer old wildy and free trade can also have it, keep existing worlds intact and introduce new worlds that allow old school pking and free trade? however, to prevent misuse of free trade, make free trade available to those with maybe 1000+ skill total levels and certain amount of quest pts. Many players have voiced out their opinions on the new combat sounds and hp update and wished they could have an option to choose. For a start, Jagex should care about both sides, one side which wants old wildy and free trade, and the other side which wants to stay put with the curent system.

@en str pure
How about free players? They cant use games necklace.
@u die nikka
RS is not all about PKing though, there are many more things to do in RS than only PKing.

I've been playing since the game CAME OUT. Since spells and ranged were little dots. You can't relate. You're not a legit player. You're one of the spoiled players that had everything come easy for you. I worked for my money, I worked hard for everything I did. When I did a clue scroll I went out into the wildy and died multiple times for it. But I didn't care. That's how the damn game should be. " I like to go explore the wildy without getting attacked" ....Are you ******** me? the wildy is supposed to be a dangerous place. Not some place to go frolicking. I stand true to my statement you are cancer. I think they should keep BH and the ge, but they need to bring back wildy and free trade with no restrictions at all.

Truthfully botting and gold farming will never be vanquished. it has been slowed, through the dissatisfaction of many players. If you look at any other game you always have people like that. Have they taken steps to prevent it yes, but have they taken away something ex. most of the runescaping community liked at the time, no. So truthfully yes it does give a unfair disadvantage to many players when someone does that, but in time they will be caught. I'd rather have played with the bots and gold farmers, then have something i loved taken away. I quit just before the free trade and wilderness were taken away, but I still do miss it and I've been playing for over a year straight now.

I NEVER use text speak like "ROFLMAO" but I'm sorely tempted right about now. Of all the weird ideas and attitudes this issue is demonstrating, this one for me takes the cake.
"Sitting for hours trying to sell items that I couldn't sell was what made up the best memories of runescape. Spamming my " Selling full rune 180k" For an hour to finally sell it felt GOOD. Now you can just walk up to the ge and buy that and take less than 10 seconds. You know nothing about the good ol' days."
Don't people like this actually want to PLAY the game? How anyone can say they ENJOY all the wasted time searching for individual buyers/sellers, all the typing, waiting in line to log into a full trading world, etc is beyond my comprehension. It's just warped. Surely there are stock market simulations or marketing games out there you could play? It shouldn't be a problem to actually MAKE 180K in an hour playing the game; killing monsters, other players, skilling. If I can't sell something on the GE or to a store in a reasonable amount of time for it's value it goes on the ground. If that's what floats your boat be my guest, but I guarantee you they'd never fool anyone rigging a poll to convince us that THAT was a popular activity.
Side issue, granted; but just amazing to me.

Bringing back the wilderness is awesome! People can feel the thrill of PK'ing again! And the wilderness will actually become formidable once more. Bringing back Free Trade is also awesome! I can transfer items to and from accounts, I can set my own price for something, and have more freedom! Nay-sayers say no because they speak for those who do not pay attention. People get scammed due to their own negligence. People are tricked, but there are multiple warning signs and options you have to go back. The only reason I can think of as to why someone would vote no is because they were scammed, or someone they know was scammed. This does open the window for real world traders...but like the MOD said they are combating it. And succeeding. So YES, bring them both back, I believe this would draw a lot of old players back to the new game!
