voted no, old wildy was a pain for non pkers, remember not being able to use the sbyss as 2 high lvl mages would stand there killing all and sundry etc? there is plenty of provision in rs now for pkers so this is a retrograde step.
as for jagex listening to the community dont make me laugh, when dunge was introduced many dare i say most disliked it even those who i know enjoy it dont consider it a skill yet jagex says it is and jagex is never wrong, you will do what jagex says. can you imagine a petition for dunge to be removed or downgraded to the minigame it is ever being taken up and voted on?
I suspect that the decision to bring back old wildy has already been made and this vote is just a cover for jagex to use when there is widespread anger at it.

guthan, first please get my name right and second i have no problem with wildy being dangerous, it's hardly safe now but old wildy was so heavily balanced in favour of high lvl combat types with strong weapons or spells it made large parts of the wildy unusable to many.

@2l8 2tele:
my fear isn't RS becoming too hard, my fear is unfairness to the children who play this game. No player should be subject to being piled on by 10 PKs just because they wanted to use the agility course...
@but:
The reason players wont be able to go to the green dragons anymore is because they would no longer be able to say "green drags are lev 79, I'm lev 85, therefore I can train there" and instead will have to also say "but I can't train there unless I join a large clan of green drag hunters so we can protect each other from gangs of PKs"
...Then hunting green drags is pointless because you're in a clan of so many other green drag hunters that there isn't enough drags to make a profit from.
@Sir Tissi:
You have a very good point. There are 25 skills in this game and we can choose to train the skills we enjoy the most. By bringing back old wildy we will be FORCED to train combat skills, or miss out on a 3rd of the f2p map... Yet somehow Espion Roku (a PK) thinks the reinstatement of the old wildy will give the players more freedom??? Go figure >.>
@Sini Lintu:
Great idea! As we already have a system of "no one can PvP unless on certain dangerous worlds", why can't we just swap it over and say "everyone can PvP unless on certain safe worlds"?
@Guthan XIII:
I agree that we all learn after being scammed once (usually out of our stronghold security coins. lol). The scammers aren't an issue for me, it's the instability of the markets.
I like it how the RS markets are fairly on par with the way RL stock markets work, although RL stock markets have systems in place to stock price manipulation that RS hasn't found a way to implement yet >.>. By removing price limits, item prices will be subject to the huge fluctuations of supply and demand.
Question:
Will the graphs available on the "Home > Game Guide > Grand Exchange" page still be available after the update? And if so, will they include player trades, or still be solely based on "yesterday's GE avaerage"?

I used to play around and have fun in the wild from n00b till it was closed and I wasn't a pk'er outside of duel arena and that was always just for fun between friends yeah sure I got killed a couple times but I didn't whine cause I knew it was dangerous but there wasn't much reason for anybody to go out there except to fight each other you act like there is going to still be a million and one reasons that you will need to go in the wild but there won't be and abyss is meant to be hard to get to if it wasn't dangerous and difficult nobody would use the normal runecrafting entrances abyss is only a dangerous shortcut so quit complaining like a baby.

Yes, the markets would most likely be largely instable. I agree, it would be much simpler to purchase goods at a constant price. However, the prices would likely be much more exact, and pertain more greatly to the time and situation. Exact prices require great fluctuation.

asking for you to spell my name correctly is not unreasonable as for the comment on my grammar so what. This is a forum not a professional letter.
I mentioned i have no objection to a dangerous wildy but to one so in favour of one type of player over and above all others it makes that area effectively unacceptable to many.
And as a friend has just mentioned to me it's interesting to note that instead of a reasonable debate those who disagree with me resort to petty insults.

the wild is beyond safe i made a vid that can show this.
i walked though current wild with no armour or weapons or food. from varrock to mage arnea and back.
only got attacked by 2 rev orks. the first one shows me just walking on to mage arena and not getting killed and the second is me walking back to varrock.
that rev did almost kill me but still i walked on to varrock i didn't run the whole vid. except the very first part but that was for 2 seconds and switched to walking the whole thing. but lol at fail revs
