I'm very excited to see this poll, whatever you want to call it, but like many other people have said what about RWT (Real world trading)?
I joined back in 2007 I never knew what to do or anything I never, traded or anything untill one day I was on and the updates were getting released like mad.
So if the Wilderness, and free trade comes back it will be great I will definatly((???)) play longer on RS.

Also if RS brought back the Wilderness, and Free trade jAGeX would get a lot more players, which will result in more players buying RuneScape membership.

@Espion: So I'm guessing you don't use the G.E. to obtain quest items?
I only bring this up because I prefer not travelling the RuneScape world on a quest FOR the items, and then continue on the actual quest. Not that it's really a problem, but it's just a point

dude i'm the one that sat smithing 12mill worth of steel bars into cballs in Fallador. 2150 bars + 4300 bars in Edgeville after doing all of Varrock tasks just to use the Edgeville furnace tyvm! I have been playing this game since i was 17 now i am 24 and i do things no differently other than things I am limited from due to trade restrictions of course.

i use GE for large trades like dragon armour, 100+ lots of cooked food, or steel bars for cannonballs that i then sell in ge no differently than i did back in the day where i'd buy steel in fallador by the mote smith in to cballs and sell a few squares north closer the the road. we worked hard to sell as well as buy at the price we wanted and we did it just fine before ge and i hope it goes back to the way it was even if ge stays.

and my real runescape name is Lord Morex TYVM.

@Espion,
"you know what is the worst part? the people argueing and whining are trying too sound grown up and use big words and argue grammar and half the people just saying i'm not afraid of wild and bots! are little girls probably no younger than my kid niece you guys have not got more courage than a little girl? then you have no place in Asgarnia! Grow a pair!"
You might actually find that a lot of the people that are saying their feelings and using so called big words, might not be kids and don't want the game ruined for anyone except pkers.
What ever happens because of a fair vote I will go with.
Doesn't mean I will live in the wildy, because I wont.
I have said how I feel which you obviously dont agree with, but I dont have a go at you for stating your feeling so please respect others.

I honestly want free trade and wilderness back. I rememberthe trade worlds, and even though it is faster with G.E. it was still funner no doubt. I started back when there was no resetrictions.. all I remember was taking a break for a while and coming back to this. I don't really see the problem in changing it back.

I'm excited to see that bringing back the old wilderness and trade was even a possibility, and even more now that it's so close to becoming reality :D . Yet I only wondered if the shops would return to the way they were before, or if they might go back to having unlimited stock (best case scenario) and allow buying items other players have sold, like before. But one more aspect to the free trade were the drops. Assuming if someone else died outside of the wildy and they failed to reach their gravestone in time before it collapsed, would other players be able to reclaim that players items? Or the same with npc drops, if any item is not picked up, regardless of value, can other players see it and pick it up? Just a few thoughts I had that weren't specified in the outine of features to change :) .
EDIT: One other thought is possibly integrating a tutorial on how to effectivly trade between players as was prior to the Dec. 2007 removal within the beginning tutorial for new players, and possibly a secondary, optional tutorial for players whose accounts have been created after the first removal.
