you do relise this is going to increase bots, mearching, scamming and credit card hacking? Isn't these the reasons you abolished rwt in the first place?. why bring something back if you know its going to ruin the ecconomy and cause thousands of players to loose their valuable items.?
I agree old wildy and free trade limits was convenient but thinking about the damage this will cause the game i dont think its worth it. Pvp atm seems to work and if you want to give someone an item you can use the item lending system.
I relise that the higher pesentage want rwt back but in my oppion and sadly %2 of runescape this will only put runescape back 4 years ago and all the work jajex did to make runescape safe will be destroyed.
thankyou :)

Same as every1 else for crying outloud i clicked the vote thinkin it would be a link to the voting page, well wasn't i surprised when i saw that it had voted for me!I think this is pathtic for guineuses like jagex to come up with this perpostrios idea let alone actually put it out there!It would be like taking out a skill like herblore!Sure not a big skill but it has a soft spot in all our hearts.And what happens to the resources in the wildy, huh?! **** there gone just like that, well i have freind in rs that's a lvl 3 skiller with 3 skillcapes well i turn my back on the old wildy just like every1 else with common sense. But rlly this is just sad that you guys(Jagex) would put a trick like that on the vote page.I will stand my ground until this is settled once and for all, i think this is like taking away the new login screen to trade with the old one,idiotic.Now i ask every1 that has some common since DON'T press the button under any scenerio. As for andrew if he's still around or whatever,if he's not then whoever is incharge over there in cambirdge plz remove this "vote" for i beleive it to be an unfair choice, and move on as is.instead of wasting your time on this actually come up with something contructive not destructive.And with that i say remove all the false votes like the ppl that ask to have their name removed just like mine.

I dont know whats with all you people that oppose the change. This is how the game was originally and it was perfect and there was never this much arguing or complaining back then. People that think RS is going to suck and fall through... think again. They know what they are doing and they know it will work because it has worked before. The whole voting thing also. It may be people making new accounts and voting yes, but those people seem to be a lot more passionate about there position than the other sides or there wouldnt be 90% for the change. You cant say the "no" side people arent going to try and cheat and get their way. If you assume all people for the change is cheating for votes and people agaisnt the change arent, then you seriously should rethink how the world works. Its not all good and bad,and black and white. I couldnt careless what you all do if they change, but if they do, im going to enjoy Runescape the way it was meant to be.

if they bring back the old wilderness they will gain most of their players back but think about some things they can do to make it good for everyone not just posting the same problem alot of people are posting (myself including) i at least tried to post some ideas. (i think i might link together since some of them are good and ill post the people who mention it to me)i am gonna try to help post things to help this game and not just rant on about problems they know about.i want to help this game in any way possible and not destroy it like rwting did.

Just pointing out to all the people who are saying to split worlds: while that may work for wilderness, think about free trade. The main reasons for no free trade are scamming and real world trading/gold farming. So you split worlds, the scammers, rwters and gold farmers will just use those worlds.
My opinion is to do whatever with the wild, as I never really go in it anyway, and make every world free trade.

You do realize your reasoning against this proposal is just as flawed as any other?
You claim an increase of botting, a common reason, but a very ill-thought about one. Botting is an issue that never died, it's still just as prevalent as it ever was in the past. The only difference is between the bots of today and those of yesterday? The look, they're not the generic looking characters suicide botting for gold farmers. Botters have developed their programs, techniques and what-have-you to avoid detection. They're just as prevalent today as every before, again.
An increase in merchanting? That's ridiculous. Merchanting is very legal and very much present. There only difference is merchanting clans will no longer exist to manipulate the prices of the Grand Exchange. In fact, that's a positive change all around. Those giant manipulating clans will no longer cost the average player millions with their constant price manipulation.
Credit card hacking? Although not quite the right way to put it, still very much a real-threat. One which is handled. Certain players will still continue to rip their parents credit cards off for membership and gold. That never changed. Players have found ways to Real World Trade, easily even through the limits.
Again, Real World Trading? Still prevalent. Players buy and sell accounts **** their trained accounts and some players farm via botting and sell those. This never decreased. Players buy and sell gold/items as well, they've found ways to transfer gold quickly.
Your reasoning is far too flawed to vote yes or no. You should think about all that has truly changed and all that has only changed on the outside. Everyone Jagex tried changing still exists on a daily basis, simply with a new face.
Now I ask, if all these things are still just as prevalent as before then why use them to say no to an action which could potentially bring back a large portion of your community? Vote yes, bring our real community back.

Hey,
i find it personal this wil not be a good update and i have 3 reasons for it.
1) skilling in pvp +brawlers is good exp gain and youre encouriging to let the pker see he can gain ep and gain skil levels and wil not only be focusing on his melee stats.
2) clue's wil be hard if you don't take any armor because you are scared beëing killed bye other players and killing the zamorak mage with out armor doesn't look easy to me only good for high level players.
3)no trade limmit wil just be more real life trade for rs gold.
sorry for my bad English.
