^^how does that in any way make a difference when you could just make loads of accounts and vote on each?
I think either only let qualifying free players and members or only one IP address do it
but then again the IP address thing might not work as several people in a house might all wanna vote

...apparently you could only vote once and you had to log in to do so so....

once PER ACCOUNT.

...but then again the IP address thing might not work as several people in a house might all wanna vote ....
limit it to something like 4 per computer. they can tell the harddrive number so they should be able to use it to limit the number of duplication. granted the cheaters could go to other computers like libraries and such, but not that many would.

what will be happening to green dragons? for the people that like combat for money but hate pking and the idea of pvp itself it ruins most of money making besides going to blue dragons which makes life alot harder because of thier higher level.
myself i would like to see the old wilderness and free trade come so that pvp will go into a new generation "or an old one, lol". but for the people that hate pking this would definetly ruin money making by a landslide.
so what will happen to them?

There are so many ways to make money on runescape, but since green dragons are gonna be harder to kill due to hunters, d bones will go up in price. Will be riskier, but definitely more rewarding :) just deal with change, there is all good and bad, but this one is a 10/10 boys

My biggest question is: Why can't Pkers settle with the Pvp worlds? Kill anyone, anywhere, anytime... I found myself wandering into those worlds a couple of times, and I have to say, it's fun running for your life every where you went. I planned on going back to one of those worlds after I get some leveling in a couple of my skills, but if they are bringing back the wildy, dang. The only thing I wouldn't do in those worlds are: quests, clue scrolls, or other skills that doesn't involve combat. I would go to a safe world and do them there. The PvP worlds make things a lot easier, as you only had to worry about Pkers in those world... And now I see the problem... Only Pkers go into those worlds, which makes things dull for them.

As for free trade, the only problems I see are people getting scammed, some items going up in price making it very difficult to buy them, and some things becoming immpossible to buy. It is fun to make very weak armor like bronze, and give them to new players to help get their feet on the ground and give them an edge over other new players. Though it is the new players I see the biggest problem with free trade. They won't know the value of every item, thus would easily be scammed, which I think was one contributing factor into the removal of free trade (not 100% sure on that).
In summary: I see reason for bringing back the Wild, as the PvP worlds are only filled with Pkers, and no one willing to take the risk. I see reason as to why free trade should not come back. The only reason I see people wanting free trade back is to scam newbies out of their hard earned money, and ruin those players fun after they realize they were scammed. I also don't see why "Free trade" and "Wilderness" were put into one poll; Why weren't they seperated that way Wilderness could get voted in, while free trade remains gone (or however the players vote).
If I was able to vote (found out after voting ended) I would've voted no because of free trade!

This poll was so unfair
first of all it wasn't a majority and second of all the stupid yes voters get their way on all the worlds and with the removal in 2007 they got pvp and bounty worlds so we should get no ruined by idiots worlds

Due to the FAQ being locked recently, here's the questions I have.
@ JAGEX MODERATORS: I shortened down these questions as best as I could. I would REQUEST you could ANSWER THEM, because I would like to believe I am speaking for the MAJORITY OF PLAYERS on RUNESCAPE.
~~~~~~~~~~

\/\/\/\ To Whichever Jagex Moderator Answers this First /\/\/\/
1. What's to become of all the minigames and events (Including, The Wilderness Agility Arena and ALL Wilderness Dragons)? Where will they be relocated at?
2. SUBPLOT: You say the Economy is out of control because of merchanting clans (which is true, and any merch clan is annoying). However, now with umlimited free trade, and unlimited grand exchange, to me, it's like saying a bronze dagger's wealth and price is equivilent to a white party hat, (which in the end, is rather sad). People are going to be putting prices at outrageous numbers for some of the EVERYDAY PURCHASES, and I can forsee it happening (Marble Blocks, 1 mil, Prayer potion, 100k[it might not be so exagerated, but it is possible]).

GETTING DOWN TO THE POINT, would you put trade limits on some items on the Grand Exchange if the prices got even crazier than what Merchanting Clans do to the Economy?

\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/ MOST IMPORANT QUESTION \/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/
3. The wilderness we currently have I will refer to the current Wilderness/LimitedTrade 2.0, the old Wilderness/FreeTrade is 1.0, and the future Wilderness/FreeTrade 3.0.
If worse was to come to worst, would you revert all changes from the Wilderness 3.0 (once updated in Febraury) if there is too much scamming, and too many problems occur and go ary to Wilderness 2.0? Would you, and is it remotely plausible go back on your word on bringing the old Runescape nostalgia back?



Thank you for your time. I would HIGHLY APPRECIATE IT if you could ANSWER these questions.
