I am very, very nervous about this change. I remember the bad ol' days when people got lured into the wildy through various cons and deceptions. I am also very keenly aware that the community has wanted this very badly - as evident by the current polling results - and most of us are mature enough to look out for ourselves, or at the very least to pick ourselves up and move forward if we do something naive and stupid.
I am going to offer one suggestion: for your youngest players - the ones limited to quick chat - you might consider blocking them from the wildy. If they can not enter the wild, they can not be victimized - and developmentally speaking they are easier to trick, even restricted to quick chat: "Can you lead me to location:...," "Follow me to ...". You might also consider leaving the trade limits on them - at least outbound - so they don't get tricked out of valuable items.
Other than that, caveat aleator.

Luring was good lol.
And I think that lure/scam was what make runescape cool. Because you had to be ready to protect your item from lure and scam. And now you log in and you know that nothing won't happen.. The old runescape was awsome.

I am hopeful the wildy/free trade will return.
i quit, but received a text Sunday informing me of the poll and i had to find out. My first words were "Holy -censor-", i was shocked and excited. It was unreal, i did not think it would ever return. <3

Some of our current players are threatening to leave, but while they(you) leave an older member returns to his dusty seat or a new member takes theirs(yours). The very next morning i made my account a member.
~cheers~
p.s. gl and hf
-edit-
some say this update is the worst, failscape, etc., but the same was said before. The future of Runescape has become exciting to see :D
G.E. <- killed merchanting.
sure it is a great system, but i hate seeing people driving prices as they do now.
what i love about the G.E. is being able to buy almost anything and selling your items while away, but i would give that up to merch <3
i do not believe driving prices as it is happening now to be merch.
-Edit again-
lol
nvm i do not care for the G.E. at all. I just remembered how useful this forum is for finding sellers and buyers.

I had just quit RuneScape (about two months now) because I started to find it boring without the true excitement of old PKing and the thrills of getting huge loots, PvP worlds just didn't cut it anymore for me, but after hearing that the wilderness could be coming back I decided to take back that decision.
Nice Job Jagex!
