here goes for people that think there "Veterans" and know it all since theve dedicated there childhood in runescape..
Just cause now ur a 138 and maybe a Mod, does not mean you *now it all, you have had your enjoyment of the wildy when runescape was at its best , and now just because u have 99s everywhere and there is no real amusment at the wildy rather than skilling, what are u worrying about, your age has left u its time for u to pick up a book or car and get out. let us have fun like i personally used to.. and i know hundreths of thousands will, even u... and JUST VOTE YES already!!! man...
and i hope by new years we get a cool banner "The Return of the Wild!" and then all the ghosts come out of a boat and own the noobs that whine :D

My personal thought is that it would be nice to bring it back but not in full force in one update... that would be a bit much>>> I think if you did like a beta form of it to make sure people like it that would be nice. Also, no matter how hard you try to keep people from getting scammed, they'll get scammed anyway because they will be inexperienced and gullible>>>

I would like the wildy to **me back but then the pvp worlds would become useless and if you want to pk it probably will be a lot harder than just logging into a pvp world and finding someone to kill. Another thing is that maybe you like the extra stuff in the wildy like Stealing Creation, Fist of Guthix, and Clan Wars. I know I frequent a lot of them often. If you bring back the old wildy it will become a pvp world basically and going to the minigames in the wildy probably won't be as attractive as before>
Overall I think that you should bring back the free trade and the wildy but modify it somehow so that it would be funner than before.

Welcome back Wilderness and Free-trade us old pkers and new pkers deserve to see the wilderness as it was, and the trade limits back!

Wilderness and Freetrade Limit for those who disagree on having them back are highly disrespectful to the players that want it back, because us players that want it back, has experienced playing in the old days, and you new players, complain about it coming back when YOU HAVE NEVER EXPERIENCED IT BEFORE, and for those who think there going to get scammed? PAY MORE ATTENTION TO THE TRADE SCREEN, and for those who are scared if their going to get Lured/Backstab then think twice about DOING IT!!!! WELCOME BACK WILDERNESS AND FREETRADE, I SPEAK FOR THOSE PKERS WHO WANT IT BACK!! WELCOME BACK GOOD OLD RS!!!

To all those with no experience all you need to know is this:
1) Go to Youtube
2) Type in "Runescape Pking" (f2p or p2p)
3) Look at videos with a little pk skull in corner that says "Level 1" etc.....
Then watch and see what Runescape is supposed to be like.
Some true classics you should search....
Kids ranqe

As many others have said & will probably continue to say, I have many mixed feelings about this.
-Bringing Back the Wilderness Opinion
I will not be the first to say that I hated the revenants. Doing a clue scroll and all of the sudden *bam* your frozen and then dead. They were so powerful it was kind of cheap & making it where I would rather take on another player than the CPU.
The wilderness doesn't bother me that much as of I didn't/don't go in the wild except very little. What caught my attention though is this - The abyss. Runecrafters heaven. I know I probably missed this that it would get moved or something like I know about the clue scrolls *** going to be in the wild. That's great! (Saves us from both revs. and online players :P )
Other than that, that's really all I have to say about the wilderness :)
-Free Trade Opinion
The main reason why I voted was because of this right here. Free Trade. This was very important to me back when I played Runescape a long time ago. I have friends who sometimes need items to help achieve a goal or I feel like being nice and giving them something special for a good occasion. I would sometimes give out a few little things for holidays to those who I knew very well and they would do the same back. It made it feel..More realistic shall I say?
Unfortuantly, with the limit they made on it, it was impossible to do such a thing. Yipee, I can spend 30k on all my friends...I appreciate what they where trying to do with the gold buyers, scammers, etc. but in reality it hurt a lot more people, or in your view Jagex customers/players, then it helped. We were so used to being able to go "Here you go" *hands rune armour* and the next day it seemed like we were so limited. Have you ever played just a plain text game with barely any options? That in a way was how it first was.
I love reading other peoples opinions & getting their viewpoint so if you read mine, great :)
Thanks Jagex for allowing us to vote & to voice our opinion

@airesblood:
Hey that is not true as to that I have played WoW before. You need to watch what you say. Many people can be offended easily. I enjoy all games, but that doesnt mean I dont have a life or anything like that. I for one am married so u need to keep ur stereotypes to urself.
@imchewster:
Any game can be competition as long as it puts up a good fight, and in my opinion, i would play runescape over wow anyday if they bring back free trade and old wildy.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Now my main reason why im posting. You people that say they should bring back free trade, but keep prices posted so you dont get scammed or anything need to think a little harder. If there is always a set price... then it is not a player based economy. It is still going to be ran by jagex as long as there is some sort of listing to go off of. That is the wrong way to go about it. The economy was working just fine before restrictions were put on, and this was decided by the people. It is not necessary to keep up a price to make sure u dont get scammed. How about you watch ur screen and do some research once in a while and you can find out the best price. Stop relying on people giving you the way and make ur own path instead. Thats the point in it being a RPG...ROLE PLAYING GAME.
