I've been playing runescape since '05. Anyone who joined after '07 you have no idea what runescape was like. Ask anyone who played before the update it was an amazing game. People who complain about the wildy not being safe anymore or what not. It's not suppose to be safe thats the point. It's not like every world is full of pkers anyways. It'll still be no prob to do your lil rcing, clue scrolls, etc.
I personally think this is the smartest thing Jagex ever did was start the poll. Hopefully they'll realize that every good rpg needs free trade and a pvp in every world.

Dashing through the Wilderness,
with my clue in my hand,
being whipped all the way,
followed by a pker band.
My a$$ is turning red.
I think I'm almost dead.
And now I'm in Lumbridge.

I did not vote for the return of the wild or free trade. When you took away the danger of the wild except for the revs, I was happy, you kept pvp worlds and bounty hunter worlds. You could make more of these for the people who want the old wild back. I agree with what I have read about if the old wild comes back we can't do the hard clue scrolls nor can we find penguins in the wild.
I am one that will quit playing if you bring the old wild back. I love to do quests and play the game, but when quests take you into the wild and it was the old way, I never liked doing them. I have the quest cape and have not finished this latest quest, but it will have been a waste of gp to have bought the quest cape if you bring back the old wild. It has been going well the way it is. The people who are voting for it, you can put in more pvp worlds and/or change enough worlds to the old wild that will accomodate the people who want the old wild. But for us who do not like it, what about us? Do we not get the kind of world we like or are you going to give the old wild people all the rights. No matter which is the majority/minority, can't you please us both with the different kinds of worlds. Don't spoil it now.
As I said if you restore the old wild and do not have "safe" worlds with only the revs and monsters out there in the wilderness, I will cancel membership and not play anymore. I lost enough in the wild before trying to do quests and now with the beacon run would stand to lose more, that I will not risk it. You will take away the fun and enjoyment of the game I have learned to love.
Just a suggestion, make it both ways and keep us all happy. If we don't want to play on a wild free for all world, we should have that choice.
Thank you for listening to my opinion.

At first this seems like a pretty good idea.
Who wouldn't want free trade and the wildy back?
But once you begin to think about it it's a stupid idea.
First of all if you want the wild back you also have to vote
for free trade,or if you want free trade vice versa.
This would also bring back the scamming of inexperienced
players. With the wilderness back it makes it a lot
harder to do spirit of summer/summer's end.
And those green dragon killers need a new way to make money.
The player killing wild would make every day life hard on non player killers.
And this is to you jagex you said on the page where you
vote if you're against the vote you can boycott it.
BUT MAY I REMIND YOU THERE IS NO BUTTON TO VOTE AGAINST FREE TRADE AND THE WILD. SO THIS MAKES THIS WHOLE THING REALLY ONE SIDED AND BIASED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

now i hope you know this'll b the end of this game right?
i mean you took it out for all those good reasons and your just gonig to throw it out the window?
see my feelings are as follows-
A- there will be an increase of scamming if it comes back
B- no1 will be able to do a clue scroll anymore
C- the g/e will die
and you know, 3 years ago when u removed it, i said to my rl friend, that the day they bring it back is the day rs dies. now the ppl that dont vote will quit if u bring it back. and ppl that did vote will quit if u dont bring it back. so i hope you now realize the terrible mistake u made that if u reverse will b like not putting in-game again.
Congratulations, i hope you realize you wrecked a good game
I for one, am definetly boycotting it.
ps guys, i played this game since 04 and yeah free trade was a good thing back then, now it willl destroy the game,i.e- coal goes from 156 gp ea. to like 950 ea. and it just wont work

I'm going to get spammed for this, but no... i think it's a horrible idea.
People want higher trade limits yes, and so do i. Just please dont completely demolish it after you fought to ban it! If you do, scamming will come back in, the ge will basically crash, and merch clans will take control.
Think of it this way, a merch clan starts merching a barrows set. next, they start to dump after its high enough. after that, the poor players who got the after math of the plummet will sell back to the merching clan members for dirt cheap prices. And finally, The merch clans re-merch that same barrows set. The grand exchange will crash, barrows will crash, and merch clans will be all powerful! :(
As for the wilderness issue, there is no way to stop gold farming. Old runescape players always knew that some people were completely oblivious to gold farming and of the wilderness, and took advantage of it. With a higher population, (aka more players) this will happen much more frequently.
I just dont want to see jagex become ruined by the greed and self-conciousness of other players decisions imediatly before they vote. I hope you hear some of the other opposing player's options before any of the other players do vote.

As an active member of the pk community since 2004 I cannot express how much of an excitement this is to me and the rest of the pk community. I'm pleased to see that you guys not only heard our main argument for years that removing trade limit and wilderness would not fix RWT and account hacking but you guys are now putting it into consideration. In short -thank you.
