page 107, i sure am early...

Yeah, 08' was a sad year. PK was true, no "drops" or "% chances", you saw a fury, you got a fury. Free trade, thank god, it's called an economy. you control it. Bots: get an antibot system. RWT: Set up a sting, hell, just Google it!

I don't want it back. The wild is fine as it is now. The greater demons are excellent training, and FoG has an entrance in the wildy.
I voted no and I hope it does not come back. We're fine without it.
Edit: And I am not a new player, I have been around since 2005.

To be honest, anyone who disagrees with the old wild must obviusly have never played as a high level back in the day.
You were the kids that got downed in the "Wilderness" You shouldnt go in the "Wilderness" if you dont want to loose your items.
This will create a whole new meaning to the assist system.
Pepole will begin training their fletching and selling yew longbows to pepole to alch on their pures.
The pures will work for there money to get nature runes to high alch the yew trees...
Dds,d longs,d scims, p pots, rings of recoil etc....
Any item will be merched by a individual who wishes to buy in bulk and gram it out.
Staking was a whole new world.. High levels would go from 200m down to 20m in a day, the next day they would be back at 200m again.. It was a rush to anyone willing to stake.
The only question i have, is what to do with all these new prayers?
Take em off
:D

I am a long time player. My original account is now eight years old. I have been playing since classic was the only option. (Long time ago in a distant land..) I lost a lot of friends in-game due to the trade and wild updates. A lot went inactive, and a lot just quit altogether.
I know a few people who would be very willing to rejoin RuneScape again if the trade restriction was lifted. I miss being able to go from 2k to 5m in a day, using street smarts. I hate the fact that we are restricted in pricing. I loath waiting for days to buy a lot of one item.
As an older player, I am getting sick of the kids in this thread belly aching about removing the restrictions. Luring was not very common back in the day, people (ones with some form of intelligence) rarely were scammed, and the market was a lot more stable than this bull crap.
Back in the day, there was no GE. There weren't hundreds of people gathering together to manipulate the prices. Why? Well, it's certainly a lot harder to manipulate prices when you do not have a grand exchange forcing you to pay a certain amount for an item. (I did find it hilarious to login to one of my alts to find that the six amulet of accuracies I owned were worth 50k each.)
I believe that reason that Jagex is offering this option is simply because their restrictions have not worked. Simply put: the only affect it had on RWT was a slight increase in prices. A very slight increase. (I do monitor these sites to see if Jagex actually fixed anything.)
Botters have obviously not been affected by their restrictions. I doubt that bots had anything to do with the restrictions set in place.
All-in-all, I am very hopeful for the wild to come back. If it does, I may just have to wipe my friends list to make room for the new friends I find in the wild and such.

2 heads better then one/checks & balances:
grande exchange/black market:
black market should be a step underground as grande exchange has been.
grande exchange up stairs on main ground, should get redesigned to work with free trade to help circuit out bots.
optional: beside trade limit via quests, there should be free trade limit via ur level too for anybody who wish not to use grande exchange/black market. exchange little extend amount of that of quests.
------------------------------------------------------------
besides random events help partly killing bots as well as report system.
mainly i think grande exchange(redesign to work with free trade to filter bots) /black market(based on current grande exchange low prices ect) ought work just as executive(king or president) & parilment branches. to better rs economy with lest bots. not much saying on the wild,i not into it, no comment :P

Everyone needs to think about what they're really saying about this poll being "rigged" .
1. You're just pissy that you're not getting your way you 8-year-old child . Quit with your pouting .
2. Yeah . Yeah it meakes SO much sense to say that JaGeX is secretly muttering to themselves, "Haha, they think that they're getting a real say in this when we've secretly already planned to put in a system that's going to cost us a hefty amount of money at the expense of lying to the RS community." Seriously ? You think JaGeX wants to lose money ? No, but they're willing to take the punch for us to get something back we've been begging to get back for three years .
