i originally really really wanted it back, but the more i think about it i dont want free trade back. That to me will give people unfair advantages. I would however like the wildy back. i had to vote no

i think one "yes" vote weighs around 0.01 %
and a "no" vote weights like 2 % ..
pretty sure that 99.99% of runescape iz for pking ??
the poll should be 0.08% no instead of 8% coz dats rigged.
theres more combat items in this game them people for gods sake its made for pk!!
BRING BACK OLD WILDY!!!!! AND TRADE !!!!!!

Well, it looks like these changes will be implemented. "Good fight" pkers, I hope you all have a really good time spending all your life killing people saying "omg owned noob".
This game has certainly aiming to the kids. Runescape = for kids.
World of Warcraft = everyone. Looks like I'm gonna be defecting to that. A shame, because I thought Runescape was finally going to be aimed at a more general purpose than solely pking. In my opinion, Jagex are the Conservatives...benefit the rich as always. I'm not exactly poor, but the fairness in this game will be gone.
Still, Jagex won't be bothered about losing one member. However, I made my point.

THB... ive played rs since the beginning, having to go to the wild to see ppls combat lvls.. how i hated but yet was excited about mining rune to seeing the action in the wild.. since what happened in 07 ive only come back every once in a while tryin to find something to do.. skilling isnt mine nor is it many other ppl like me a thing to do.. since i was introduced to pking its only been my thing to do the thrill of folding kids and them coming back asking for there items got me this is definitely a thing that will bring me and prob lots of others back i voted yes and hope to see this come thru
Merry christmas everyone!

@ES Elderstr & Nguy4
I strongly disagree. I too have been playing for a long time.. since '04 I believe.
I think the old days of Runescape were the best.
I never played another game that had *Trade Limits* and because of that update in '07 I hadn't played in years.
Because of the update many players are coming back who quit because of this.
I did notice however, a majority of wealthy players picked "Yes" because it enables us to build our fortune at a greater rate.
Maybe it is somewhat cruel to be looking out for the Rich rather than the poor, but with free trade who's to say some of the wealthy players won't help contribute money to newer, less fortunate players?
Another way to look at it is this:
-You can give your close friends items worth MORE than a measly 10k.
-You can help out people who have been wanting to buy something for a long time, but never had the money to do so.
-And lastly, it makes it easier to make money.
As for PKing, everybody needs to feel awesome every once in a while, :p and the thrill of being able to lose your items to the person your fighting while having a chance to get their items is more than enough to bring old players back.
Maybe clue scrolling might be harder, and some complain they'll die and lose their items and whatnot.
My answer is this:
-If you don't want to lose 400m worth of items and equipment, don't bring it.
Maybe Jagex should have a "Toggle PvP" Option for players who do not wish to be disturbed, that's entirely up to them.
