CANCEL THE VOTE AND RE-DO IT. TOO MANY PEOPLE ARE PUTTING IN NAMES THAT DID NOT VOTE AT ALL!!
IF MY NAME IS ON THE LIST I DID NOT PUT IT THERE!!!!!!
MAKE IT TO WHERE YOU NEED TO FULLY LOG IN BEFORE YOUR VOTE IS COUNTED AND HAVE A NO VOTE AS WELL.
STAYING SILENT ISN'T HELPING ANYTHING WHEN IT COMES TO POLITICS.

They've never made a vote where you don't need to sign in?
You also can't vote 'no'?
So when the vote came out. Someone could have voted 'yes' for zezima even if zezima didn't agree with the vote?
How is that fair?
Don't think it is.
COPY 'N PASTE!

"You kept playing even after they got rid of the "free trade and wilderness" didn't you? That's because all of that was a just an issue at the time. It's been 3 yrs since that happened and you are still playing."
I still prefer the old trade/wildy though. And I've been playing for almost 6 years (quitted many times tho)

I voted yes (wasn't much option tbh). :P
Increased trade limit i'm really liking.
Back how it was. the ability to give my friends my ahrims set if they can't afford one for a slayer task, or to give stuff out to people, just because i can. :)
Wildy i'm not so sure about though.
Clan wars you can just Games Necklace to so thats fine, and same for Vildy volc and a short run to Stealing creation.
Green dragons is mainly populated by botters anyway so if they are continually owned, i'm really not fussed. :D However Clues, Abyssal runecrafting, and the wilderness Agility course would be issues i have, unless there are "old wildy" worlds and "safe wildy" worlds they would go down the drain. :@

I don't have a whole lot to say, in all honesty, and I'm sure it's all been said before.
I'm not a fan of bringing back free trade and the wilderness, though I'm much more opposed to the former than the latter. Free trade is real world trading. Free trade is scamming. Free trade is gold farming, merchant affirming, and price manipulating.
Didn't you fight against this only three years ago, Jagex? Didn't you claim it would never return? And yet, here we stand, on the precipice of an unfair voting system, to keep silent or cheer our adoration. You have stated that a vast majority vote will return the wilderness and free trade, but this is not a majority that you call for.
Without a way to fight back, to express our dislike, how can we prove how we truly feel? Silence is not the same as making a stand. One can simply say that those who do not speak up by boycotting, with silence, no less, are too lazy or too apathetic to care. This is not true. As Aether Nemi put it, "[this poll] makes a mockery of democracy."
And you *now what? Mod Dowd agreed. I agree. How many other agree, but cannot speak up against it? How many others have since quit the game that know how bad free trade really is? Too many. Far too many. Their stories are long since dead and gone. I have been playing for six years, now, and I am fully committed to the trade limit and our current PvP system. Don't force this on us, Jagex, please.
And I shall leave you with a short story, written in the format of a script. Feel free to enact it amongst your friends for maximum effectiveness...
Obli(teraterc) - Well, I feel like real world trading is a major issue, so I think I'll boycott the poll.
Rand(om Player) - You're wrong.
Obli - Just listen to me for a minute, please.
Rand - Old wildy is the best!
Obli - I don't really agree...
Rand - Voted for you, noob! Lololololol!
Obli - How kind of you...
~Based on a true story~

Best Regards,

You know what's funny? The only people posting here are against it because the vast majority of the community would love to have these things back and are going onto the poll to vote for it.
Sure, cheaters could have easier chances to do what they do. But if you think about it, they will continue to cheat whether or not this update happens (just like when the wild was taken away in the first place).
You were scammed or lured and you lost a lot of valuable stuff? That's your fault. Jagex shouldn't have to install a failsafe to keep you from doing something stupid.
Removing the trade limit and bringing back the wild is almost any old player's dream. That was when you could help friends out with cash and items**** with clans and give/get real fair shares of loot, have drop parties or hide 'n' seek events during 99 parties or clan events.
The update would bring some small negatives, but they would be massively overwhelmed by the fun and originality that would be brought back to the game.

The vote is bigoted and invalid; seeing as even people who don't want to vote for it have their usernames used to vote for it because people can borrow other people's usernames to process that vote.
I demand rectification, JaGex!
