Man you are even more dumb than I thought. After I deciphered your atrocious spelling I realized that talking to you isn't worth my time, and that if Jagex decides to follow the decisions of morons such as yourself then this game will go down the crapper again, just like in 2007. Good luck surviving in this world, because I have a strong feeling your parents didn't have many kids who lived. This concludes our little debate.

I'm just your average runescaper, not typically concerned with the update jagex makes, but this time I feel the need to voice my oppinons vehemetly! I'll just give the list of whats going to happen with the passing of freetrade/wildy and give my opinions on each item.
About Free Trade.
* Unrestricted Free Trade between players: Great the adding of the trade limit was a nuisance to many players, and honestly as an anti-scaming method it is very flawed cuz it did more harm than good.
* Unlimited staking in the Duel Arena: Cool, while I would prefer like a maximum of 500k staked wealth for duel arena fights I guess this is okay since not many players do staked games anyway.
* The Grand Exchange would remain, but with the lower and upper price limits removed:BAD! this would severly cripple runescape, most people would buy low and sell high. it would be quite a stalemate.
* Party Room drop restrictions removed: I was unaware of drop restrictions, but also a good thing for removal, i mean if I wanted to have a drop party of 100k rune platebodies then why not?
* Item Lending still available: Lending is always nice, and the removal of free trade will allow for more reasonable rental prices for some items (ie. dragon scimmy, abbysal whip, etc.)
* Assist System still available: When was assitance restricted by trade limits?
* LootShare and CoinShare still available: This is good for clans who like to raid areas like the living rock caverns or areas/monsters with decent drops.

Sorry for the double post.
About the Wilderness:
* The Wilderness becomes a rather dangerous area again and players can kill each other for their items: I alway enjoyed roaming the wildy even if I was doomed to get pk'd. the thrill for me is in the hunt!
* PVP, Bounty and Bounty +1 Worlds removed (game mechanics may be re-used in the future): Honestly pvp worlds were a nuisance, the auto skulling the lack safe zones, everything. Bounty hunter was okay, but an unecicary compensation for loss of the wildy, when these turned into the bounty worlds it left even more scarring because the volcano left a huge amount of the wildy verry difficult to cross.
* New objects that affect combat will be analysed on an individual basis: I have no opinion here.
* Gravestones would still be used outside of the Wilderness: Grave stones were a nice addition for people killed by npc's. I think that the graves should be used in the wildy as well, just so that way you have a chance at revenge on someone who pk'd you.

* Various PVP items and gear will still be available and won’t become ‘rares’:I personaly don't care.
* Revenants patrolling the Wilderness will be relocated:BAD! Revenants are very powerful, the added pressure of revenant patrols and pkers is bound to make the wildy totaly abandoned.
* Content located in the Wilderness area reviewed as follows:
o Quests (e.g. Spirit of Summer) and Activities (e.g. Clan Wars) would be relocated
o Other content (e.g. Treasure Trails, the Beacon Network and D&Ds) would be looked at on a case-by-case basis: This is a big one. Well I agree, things such as quests and activitys should be moved to a safer location, perhaps underground like fist of guthix. As for TT, AllFiredUp and D&D's It would be good to locate those to a safer locality as well.

@ Looney, Mate your free to post how you feel, but saying pkers are "lazy" is ridiculous beyound belief. Its obvious that you are misinformed on what Pking is/used to be. Pking back in the day was the most fun / most skilled thing to be good at. The notion that you think they are unskilled and should learn to do something else is obviously due to a bad past experience getting pked, thats your problem dont let others suffer because your bad, not our fault ;) Its also very hypocritical to just say go do something else expect pking, when its just another activity like any other that people used to play this game for :D
@ above post, I think quite alot of old players are voting aswell mate so there going to be alot of votes in favour, just because you personally may not want this to happen doesn't mean that you should be accusing people of multi-voting :D
Hope the vote posses btw :D

@surreal, Yeah. I mean I was always on the blade end of the sword but seriosly before the trade limit and the ge and all that, pking was the national pastime of RuneScape. Eversince more and more skillers and botters have come to runescape, a merching clan wasn't even a flicker in anyones eye when successfull pkers were the bread and butter of the RS elite. while I personally suck at pvp, i say BRING BACK THE PKING!!!!!!!!one!!!!! :P
@alt, not everyone has to answer that in less than an hour lol. and sowhat if I had voted no, the fact remains is that on the 14th wildy and free trade come back. YUZZ!!!
