Yeye evryone crying about more bots are comming back => not true! Check any *on-memberword the yew trees in varrock. RWT: I don’t care about noobs who buy money, it’s just a damn game and I already pay €7 a month…
Safe wildy is for noobs… I bet they did*’t know the wildy before 2007 update. The wildy was made for pvp and 90% of the voting ppl still say it is for pvp! Kill dragons somewhere else, loads of things like quests, minigames…. Will be moved! I say to pk clans and solo pkers: get out your weapons and kill those basterds!!
btw bye bye merchant-noobclans!

I thought that the poll was restrictive because it offered broad "all or nothing" options. "Don't mind" is pretty much a yes-vote. I voted "no" because I perceived that the poll is somewhat "gamed" in favor of a yes vote. I see by the poll results that my opinions are moot, and that the Runescape community overwhelmingly favors the return of free trade and the old wildy.
I remember the hoards of bots that freely roamed across Runescape. I strongly approve of how Jagex eliminated most of the bots. Sure, bots still exist, but not in such huge numbers as we saw a few years ago. Saying that bots will always be around, so, why not just roll over and remove the restrictions seems incredibly ill-considered. So, I can not believe that Jagex is seriously considering inviting the hoards of bots to return. Something else must be up.
I'd vote yes if there were assurances that we will not see a new wave of bots overrun us at every resource gathering spot on Runescape. I do not want things to return to how they were in 2007.
I'd vote yes if there were assurances that bots would not increase server load and impact players who are actually playing the game.
I would like trade restrictions removed if that means that I can give special and expensive gifts to my friends and family.
I would not vote in favor of the proposed changes if that means that younger or more naive players would fall prey to predatory scammers and lurers.
Overall, I am satisfied with Runescape, and do not have any serious criticism of the way Jagex has provided us with this nice place to play over the last 10 years. I've simply rolled with the changes in the past. I am prepared to do so again. I trust that if the proposed changes are implemented, they will not ** as ill-considered as the simple yes/no poll suggests.

Kipary, do you read? They've already said the reason they're going to give us these long sought after privileges back is because they've developed a new bot detecting method, therefore they're 100% confident in their newfound abilities to reduce RWT and prevent botting, even with these updates being re-instilled.

I think that we should seperate the votes into two seperate polls. Im not a fan of either of these, i mean i almost threw a party when they got rid of the wildy, and i lost everything i had at around level 30 because of free trade. I love the ability to train, do quests, and peng hunt out in the wildy. I am aware they will be relocated but i think they are perfect where they are. PKers have been complaining for so long that they lost their wildy, when in fact we gave them an entire world to work with. Some just lost their ability to scam new players and are bitter. And free trade could cause alot of problems because with new accounts having expensive loot. Ive made a pure account and i worked my arse off to get up to around 3mil and i like getting my recognition for that.
I may hate both of these updates if they go through but AT LEAST i think we need to seperate this into two polls, one for free trade and one for Wildy. Its insanely broken to vote on two things at the same time that appeal to two saeperate group of people (unless you count scammers, they both appeal to that group). WE need he ability to say yes to trade and/or yes to wildy

What are you going to do with extreme potions when you would release the old wilderness? will you make them tradeable or will you try finding a new method to keep em out of the wild?
If you make them tradeable then you would ruin the fun of training herblore.
Please consider this idea:
Don't add the old wild into every world, instead put the old wild into bounty hunter and pvp worlds.
This way you wouldn't have to move quests or clues out of the wild (which would save you alot of work) and you don't have to worry about the problems concerning extreme potions.
I don't mind getting what i kill from the wilderness, but keep them in bounty and pvp worlds.
Free trade for me is bad, because i have been scammed alot although the old wild could already be used for drop trading.
Im against the old wild and free trade tho.
