Although I voted Yes, I do not, repeat, DO NOT want to see reverants either Teleblocking/freezing me while I'm Demon hunting in the wizards tower, or superglued to the door to Elvarg's room. How the Zamorak I'm supposed to live with that dragon's head is anyones guess. And I support Seren and Armadyl, not that dog-faced, pig-headed muppetmobile. no

As an "old school" player, I can only say one thing: PLEASE make it happen. These changes would bring SO many players who quit 2007-2008 back to game - many of them being those who did actually contribute for making the game better.
What this "2008- generation" group is saying doesn't make any sense to me. Bots? They never left, this changes nothing. Scamming? Wat. Also still there, how come you got scammed then, not now, while it is still possible? You've been playing longer and LEARNED from that mistake. People tend to learn from their mistakes, you know. I do agree, that it is to lesser extent now - but it's still there, as I said: changes nothing.
Haven't read it all, but I'm pretty sure someone has mentioned economy being "ruined"... No. What ruined economy in the first place is Grand Exchange - players couldn't have their own prices, all prices are limited etc... (You know, it's not the one who asks who is dumb. It's the one who pays it.) Prior to GE, players basically decided the prices - that's ECONOMY, not set prices. They NEED to change freely for economy to work.
What comes for PvP... I have never been a big fan of this whole EP system, though it was an improvement from BH. Nor the +1 worlds, being able to carry a godsword and whatnot not losing anything of value. Or the revenants for that matter. What's the point of wilderness if there is no risk of dying? First of all, this would bring back real PvP for WHOLE wildy, not just Edgeville. There would be risk, which is good. Without EP **** you could get right into action, without being utterly disappointed not getting any loot. Luring is fine - you have to be ******** to fall into one - there are warning signs, seriously. Could go on, but I think the point is clear here*
***;DR: Pointing right at YOU, 2008 forth generation players who cry against these changes - Don't make arguments on things you have no understanding on. They are, simply, not valid.
To Jagex: One more time, MAKE IT HAPPEN!

I don't see why people say doing clue scrolls would be impossible. Well, clearly they are '08+ players, but still. Wilderness is in all worlds. In most of these worlds, there is no one in wilderness. Those are the worlds where you can kill green dragons and do clue scrolls. If you see white dot on your minimap, either run or logout. We did it for many years and no one didn't complain. Currently, there is absolutely no risk at all. People just run around wilderness getting their millions from green dragons and clue scrolls, how much this has affected to economy?
Okay, i'm 100% sure someone would now say "revenants", please, don't joke about those. It's really unlikely that you will see revenant that is able to attack you. You really need to look for them. Revenants tactic? Oh, they don't have intelligence, so their only tactic is; Attack with random attacks. They don't farcast you or anything, unless you try to run.
Real world trading; Okay, so this is what i mostly laugh. People talk about real world trading in these forums like it would be their problem. None of you won't ever see anyone trading those moneys. It's only jagex's loss.
Luring/scamming, if one of these happens to you, then you really must be an idiot. There is ditch and warning, before you enter to wilderness. If you are dumb enough to not care about those, it's your problem then. Scamming, there is '!' sign if you remove items in trade. We also have 2nd trade screen for a reason. If you don't care about these features, but just click accept on 2nd trade screen without looking, it's your problem.
Botters. There was, is and will always be botters. There is no way jagex could 100% stop people from botting. Jagex said they can handle the bots, so we should only believe them. It's not like free trade would affect to essence botters in any way. They don't use that feature in botting.
Free trade and old wilderness were much funnier than these new ones. So i hope those comes back.

I have mixed feelings about this vote, i think that it would be a good idea and would benefit runescape alot, however could also be a buzzkill to many of the players who enjoy the wildi for the tasks which are there atm, I think there should be if the vote gets passed, wildi free worlds to which the layout is now, with revenants still intact on the worlds without pvp in the wilderness.
More pure accounts are being made up to date, but what i dont want to see if accounts with free trade giving another account large sums of money, etc which will be a problem with free trade.
If Free trade does come back the G.E. should stay and there should be very strict rules on free trade.
Wildi:
- Revenants gone on PvP wildi worlds
= Revenants stay on no PvP wildi worlds, as current layout is
Free Trade:
- Market Price, the removal of items notice, should all be put on the trade menu still
= If a player makes a large deposit to another character in R.S maybe this is imo, there should be like a reason behind this and if jagex suspects something then maybe that can be developed thats only a basis. :)
