Why were completely seperate issues put into one vote? The outcome may have been different otherwise.
Removing the limits on the GE would not lend itself well to RWT. Free trade between two people would. Increasing the limit of difference between two people based on levels would be fine.

Im completely content with the old system being reinstated. =) DUEL ARENA!!! wOo.
Yet in order to combat the bot problem? F2p should remain the same (or bigger limit). P2P should change fully to old system.

I'm all for returning the Wilderness to its former glory. I've been playing this for a while and the original was how the wild should have stayed. The rules should have remained the same, If I attacked you in the wild it was cause I wanted your stuff now I have a chance to get random stuff that may or may not be worth anything. But at the same time I still loose all my armor and equipment if I die.... And I'm not even going to get into revenants or I'll be here for hours..
That rant aside. I'm for player limits removed for trading and dueling. Let people be dumb with their money. Getting rid of the limit prices on the G.E. however, almost defies the purpose of it originally. It was a way to find and buy things you needed with out worrying about some one charging whatever they wanted. This really only seems like a good opportunity for all these merchs to take advantage of this and sell all they want with out worrying about price dropping. The G.e. is wall street and no offence to anyone but this game is primarily played by a younger audience that don't understand supply and demand and inflation. I say maybe give them a wider margin but the g.e. has done wonders for runescape's economy.

hey no mod will help stop this from happaning because you have some poeple that don't want it. it doesn't matter. there is only 8% that don't. yet 90% that do. if jadex listened to the 8% who said no vs the 90% who said to bring it back then jadex would lose alot of cash as people who voted yes would be ticked that the vote was 90% trowards it coming back and jadex listened to the few babies in the game who don't want it back. and want to make everyone have to suffer.

I've been playing since about 2004 or maybe 2005 and I feel ways should return back to what they were. That's what made me quit the first time, I also have a poem a player wrote from back then.

The Truth:
10th December I woke up,
Drank my choco, washed the cup,
Opened the window , And what do I see?
My ugly neighbour , Screaming at me :
"They Ruined RuneScape" he said , cried and ran
I turned on my PC , Like a real man
Opened my browser, turned off my TV
And suddenly on my homepage, What do I see?
"RuneScape vs Real-world Trading " I began to read
Sicker and sicker I am starting to feel
"Wilderness changes" maybe it's not as bad as it seemed
This must be a joke, this can NOT be real
Understanding what my friend was talking about
I logged on the forum, and started to shout!
Why Jagex? Why have you done this to me?
Destroyed the thing I love, yet can you see
How much Time we have wasted, we are no longer free
I Wanted to kill, but I couldn't PK,
I lost my merchanting, whats the point to play?
Duel Arena stinks, the Grand Exchange is a bore,
Jagex you yet again, fail us once more.
Why are messages hidden, Jagex are you scared?
Do you feel that the truth, is something not bared?
Or do you want to lose your members more then ever,
Because you have ruined this game, for now, and for ever.
You can remove our posts, and keep us quiet,
But when it goes down, there will always be riot
Rants upon rants, people throw their fits,
Until this day came, now its time to call it quits.
I know the rhymes, might mistake, but can't you see?
It's Jagex! Please do not blame it on me!
If you thought , that the Poem is great
Post it again, and we might yet change our Fate!

With revenants u cud say teleport 2 daemonheim and have a chance of reaching ur gravestone and they rnt an INCREDIBLY common event
with the old wildy its more of ai go into the wildy to do something quickly and a few secs l8r some guy comes up and kills me
i wonder which is safer
especially if they are big groups of PKers
oh and skuldie
when i read the first few lines of the poem i thought u were talking about the wildy coming back
Oh and 2 all the people who r saying y is the wildy and free trade connected if any1 wanted 2 free trade all theyd have 2 do is go 2 wildy and let some1 kill them 2 get their items
This is of course how rwt and scammers are all gonna come back jagex is gonna come up with another scheme 2 stop them, fail miserably and take away this stuff again
as any1 cud c if they actually THOUGHT 4 a second rather than thinking oooooh free trade and wildy ill have one of those with no added rwt and scammers
ITS NOT GONNA HAPPEN!
personally i think jagexs best way out without either bringing it back and taking it away or not implementing it with the votes as they are which wud lead 2 loads of people complaining that its unfair and threatening 2 quit etc is 2 add LOADS of votes against and say if thats what the player base wants then well do it so people dont actually have a legitemate reason 2 complain cos the "majority" wants it
