I understand that most people would love to have free trade and wildy back, but think of what is great now that we won't have later on.
Now in wildy, it is far safer than before the update. I know revenants patrol the place and people die, but most people can run away from them before they die! Imagine people who never fought in PVP worlds and never wanted to fight in the first place, trying to get a treasure trail done in wildy, get freaking rushed and teleblocked! Now, in my personal experience, I never had more than four revenants hit me in the same time. They are not even hard to escape. Imagine trying to go to 50 wildy and do your agility training and tens of Pkers just standing there ruining it. You could switch prayer and run from a rev, but pkers could follow you for a really long time. If we have wildy back, popular places like KBD or Corporeal Beast's route would be really dangerous full of money crazy rushing clans of PKers.
If they want old wildy back, why not just make a world that has old wildy in it, and take multiplayer off, not change the whole community. That would be a win-win situation.
Second, many people in the past used to scam and I have been through those years. When Jagex set the price limitation, it kept our economy of goods stabled and although merchants would ruin some item's worth, it would be realistic as in the real world. Setting the prices to anything they want would cause many price changes and some normal items such as prayer potions would be very unstable since many people would buy them while merchants would sell them higher than they need to be. And besides, friends could trade up to 200k now, so why bother to take the trade limit away? I bet most people who voted yes wants to bank items from other accounts they have.
So my answer is no, runescape is at a good place right now.

Quote 'Deverax': join the majority, dont be a minority. skillers/new players nobody cares if you dont want the wilderness back because you cant do clues or whatever your reason is, same goes for the trade limit. runescape was the best mmorpg and most likely the ONLY mmorpg that made it so you can kill other players for they're stuff.
skillers/new players > no (8%)
I voted no, and you pretty much grouped me in that group. You're aware I'm not a new player, but you probably though I was a skiller since I voted "No".
There, you were at least inferring if not specifying.
Now, what about the rest of my post? Hmm?

Still there can be multiple accounts per user, so people can still vote with more than one vote. It should be like one vote/ip address. And as for some people who dont have multiple accounts its not fair.
Its not wilderness that bothers me, its free trade that can ruin the game.
And totally voted NO. I started on 2004 and its way better now.

Here's what I don't get...
You say your done with this game because of the *most likely* future update, and that you don't feel the need to further involve yourself in this discussion, but yet you feel the need to keep posting...
Maybe you really don't want to quit?

That is true.
I think the voting earlier was not an accurate number. Runescape should check the IP Address and the time the character has been playing.
(I believe close to 1 million of them are lv 3s)
Oh by the way, minorities don't always lose. Not all of us are new players or skillers.

@PureRangedx0 The system I mentioned would still follow majority rule like you said. All I want is to have an actual choice if people want the old wild then they will vote yes in that poll and if they want free trade then they can vote yes in another poll for that instead of this all or nothing style they have now. I really haven't changed anything except the accuracey of the vote and chances are even with them seperated the majority would be yes in both, but I would still like to see an actual choice in what is brought back.
