@Aaa battery
1) Back in 2007 items appeared for other players after 1 min
2) Don't know the answer I dont think there will appear a gravestone in the wildy because that would mean you simply double the items in runescape. Because the player who gets killed can pick his items back up and the player who kills someone can pick up the same.
3) Same as 1)
4) If you get killed after you teleported the one who did the most damage will get the drop. But if you got killed after teleporting to lumbridge for example and you will respawn their, I dont know if there will appear a gravestone or something I think so but IDK.

I do not want free trade back, because it will be harder to make money over-all, think about this people... If you have ever made money with what I call "stock drops" you will not make as much money. This is because there is no price limit to how low or how high other players can buy things on the grand exchange; if you plan on selling anything as fast as you did before there where trade limits, you will have to sell reasonably lower.
If you are un-sure of what stock drops are, here are some examples:
-Green Dragon's, Dragon Bones
-Red Dragon Isle, Whiteberry (Collecting)
-Blue Dragon Cave, Blue Dragon Scale (Collecting)
-Chaos Druids, Herbs Running
**There are many other examples.

As for the old "wildy", I am against adding this addition of the game back as well. The main reason I do not not want this back is because, there is some things that have not be clear weather they will be relocated, and until there is clarity on weather they are being relocated, I, myself will still fall in the "no" category.
Examples are:
-The Abbys (Runecrafting; pk'rs would camp at the entrance)
-The Magebank (Wouldn't it be pain trying to get there with pk'rs on your back?)
-The Chaos Tunnels (This is not one of the major ones, and it could be fine if it weren't to be relocated.)

However, what I DO think should be added back is that you should pk what you get. Earned Potential is just plain stupid, if you ask me. If kill someone risking a Bandos Godsword, you should get their Godsword; you get what I mean, the same should go with other items. I *hink this because it's just plain stupid when a persons' 'ep' is at one hundred percent and they kill someone with a Bandos Godsword and even if they get one of the best artefact's, let's just say Ancient statuette, there is still a 10M price range between those two items.
Just giving my personal opinion on the issue. Many thanks to anyone who read this.

Dear Runescape,

If free-trade, staking, and wilderness comes back... i will play runescape for plenty of years to come... but if it doesnt and this was just a tease i will be outraged and only be waiting for it to happen again... runescape doesn't feel like runescape anymore without old staking, old pking, and overall free-trade... if people have a problem with that then obviously they were not around for the glory days that Runescape once had.. those of you that dont know you are missing out.. and i ensure you.. it will be easy to get used to. i ensure Jagex that they will have more people paying for multiple accounts once this happens, Jagex/ Runescape is a company...more profits and happy costomers is sure to come with this update.. thats what a company is all about!!!!!!!!!!! i cant beleive you guys didnt think of bringing it back much sooner... I degraded myself to play WoW after limmits were placed.. i am not proud to play WoW but i was not satisfied after free-trade was taken away. I would love to be a continueing paying costomer for Runescape :) )
I give it a 110% yes for the "old days" back

It's up to you Jagex!!! <3

love, Tory

Ive played runescape for a long time and over the last year or 2 I have tried to come back to it through being bored, I havnt lasted more than a week back at it any of those times as its just not the same.
If you look at some of these players that are saying yes and no then you will notice that all the people that have obviously played past 2 years are mostly saying yes, bring it back.
Its impossible to totaly remove RWT as they now just use a bot with your account and make you your money (and xp) that way.
If free trade and wilderness get put back into the game then I can definaitly see myself comming back and renewing my membership, and I think I speak for alot of people here when I say that.
100% yes for old rs in 2011 :)

I have been playing runescape for a while and have seen so many players come and go. Honestly I believe this is an attempt by jagex to regain the players that quit when wild was removed. I am one of those hated pkers and see this as a good idea as bringing back more players. The situation with bots is never going to change every mmorpg has bots of some sort. Even without the wildy and freetrade bots are still being used in order to lvl up skills so yes bots are going to come back in masses but that is to be expected. Those who do not want wildy back in my opinion and after skiming through some replies just hate it in general because they dont like the idea of bots but they are in game.

Oh yeah and Btw, any of you crying about not adding free trade because of scammers, that is your own fault for being fooled ** them. most scams simply played on the hope that you wouldn't check the second trade window, or either didn't know about the wilderness. that is sad considering the whole point of the trade second window was to let you check for sure your trades. Don't cry to jagex saying that you were scammed, it's your own fault. It shouldn't be against the rules, it is simply smart players using their knowledge of people to turn a profit.

i thing you should bring the old wildy back and free trade as it will bring back former players
secondly in pvp when you kill someone the drop are horrible and players deserved what they killed or earned
either way if you bring back free trade more people could use G.E to not get scammed

Vaeran u have the worst opinion lol. ur prolly one of those new players who dont know anything about old rs. The only thing that made this game special was the wilderness and staking. once they took them away rs started to fade because skilling is boring and pking is fun :) .i just upgraded to members yesterday when i saw the poll cus i quit after few months without wildy**** felt just like other boring games but with wildy comming in again, staking and free trade limit RS will become popular and one of the best games again. Thank You.

RWTing is a joke its not your fault morons trade in real life. Bring back the wilderness, and free trade. Its not your responsibilty to monitor RWT since your not recieving any bad or good end of the bargain. Let government authoritys take care of it if its a big deal. WoW is a perfect example of RWT yet they havent taken any action againt RWT because its not blizzards problem. There are many problems with todays pking and the old wilderness is a great solution.

You know...I have a thread offering a compromise that is starting to get up there in the popularity chain. I am 150% for this idea. And trust me if it comes back, I'm officially buying my new computer and hitting the wilderness and merching like I used to and how it was supposed to be done, not this stupid Grand Exchange price manipulation. Look at the facts though, why the hell should you have a poll about it? The majority of RuneScape and even more people who quit are all for the idea, even though many many people if not all have been scammed at some point and time. And face it, you can't get rid of botters and scammers because they're still here today and bringing back the wilderness isn't going to change that. I've been scammed out of millions and I've been killed to accounts that have been botted so much it's ridiculous and are unkillable, yet I'm still for the idea. WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR!!!! BRING BACK FREE TRADE AND WILDERNESS NOW INSTEAD OF DRAGGING IT ON WITH THIS STUPID VOTING SYSTEM AND JUST BRING IT BACK@
