Bring it back.. i will definitely start playing again as will my friends.. we all left because Jagex got all protective and took out the fun "real life" aspects of Runescape and made it all secured and on lock-down 24-7 it just became not fun to play by taking out one of the biggest aspects that makes a popular game - Freedom to do what you want.
Yes definitely i will vote.

@ ELVIN ASHWIN. ARE YOU SERIOUS? LOOK AT ALL THE VIDEOS ON YOUTUBE. LOOK AT ALL THE RANTS PLAYERS DID . **NT EVEN TALK ABOUT A *FEW* PEOPLE QUITING RUNESCAPE BEFORE OF THE UPCOMMING UPDATE. The amount of people who quit runescape because of the update we have right now IS BY FAAAAAAR HIGHER THAN OLD WILDY.

I agree with elven, we old style players did have fun back in the day but there are reasons that they took it away so its up to u what you do but i don't want them back (but from free trade)...

I'm not reading over 900 pages of posts. I'd waste a whole day reading repetitive rants and supports of the same thing.
Well, here goes nothing:

The petition was to bring awareness to the option of bringing back the wilderness. Not to determine whether to actually bring it back. The referendum IS to determine whether to bring it back or not. Jagex should put that as an announcement on the Runescape welcome screen (with the world select tab, friends tab, etc.) to alert players who have the game page in their favorites.
For those of you who are crying about botters, think about this: Jagex wouldn't bring back the wilderness and free trade if they weren't 100% sure they could detect and ban botters. Needless to say that trading 100M over from a level 3 noob account to a level 100 would be at least extremely suspicious.
PvP and Bounty worlds are useless at best - killing ten people with full rune and whips, only to get some ****ing adamant scimitar, is not even worth the two hours it took to do that. You're far too restricted with set prices, and anyone who thinks that they help with buying items may as well drop 20% of everything they have and ever earn, starting now.
Bringing the old wilderness back would basically bring the original intent of the wild back. Deny this and you haven't gone PKing before the trade limit was introduced. I guarantee you that.
Now please, stop b**ching about how this would suck, and actually put some thought into it.

Finally, the interesting part. 90% of the ~800k voters in the referendum say they want free trade back. 8% don't. How long has this been on for? 3 days straight? I'd say the majority of the voters (AKA active players) want it back, and it would be pretty lame if we had to wait until the 14th to hear the obvious announcement of "the trade limit has been removed! Wilderness PKing is back!"

Don't make me repeat myself in different words. It took ten minutes to type this up, and I *on't want to waste ten minutes again.

Nothing wrong with the BH/PVP worlds now, and if u wanted to make WRT go away the limit should double for friends every month they have been friends or something, because no sane person is going to add a different person for over a year so they can give them a party hat or some crap

>>>>: Jagex wouldn't bring back the wilderness and free trade
>>> if they weren't 100% sure they could detect and ban
>>>botters.
The fact that they do not manage to ban all botters even now refutes your claim.

lord helios, in response to your last two posts all i can say is wow. how can you be so dull witted?
1) they would never, ever, EVER relocate revents to the main rs populance. when they say relocate it would be to another high danger priority location (e.g the godwars dungeon)
2) after reading your first post i can see you are one of the people who rather than voting for the good of the community you vote for your own selfish and money grabbing reasons. you can't have one without the other!
3) bringing back the trade without the wilderness would be a huge mistake and vice versa. the main purpose of the wilderness was to control the income of high level items. a sort of gold sink. if players could trade all the... lets say dragon bones for example. without the risk of revents or pkers then they would ammass a large amount of money in a short time which puts newer players at even more of a disadvantage. were as if trade and drops were kept back and the wilderness reverted back to its pre 2007 ways players would rwt in the wilderness by killing a predesignated account for their items
