Wildy/Free Trade referendum...
Quick find code: 254-255-50-62065672
First of all, I'm glad they actually made this referendum. The petition was pretty ridiculous, everybody could copy names from the hiscores.
Now we have a pretty unrealistic result. If they make such an important referendum, they have to exclude accounts that were made by botters just to vote in this poll. I think a good restriction would be at least 4 or 5 skills above 30 or something like that. I don't think making it mems-only would be a good solution, because there are people like me, who aren't members most of the time, and just buy 1 or 2 months membership during summer (or other) holidays.
I haven't thought really much about it, but I'm not sure if it's a good idea to have both the wildy and the trade in one vote. Of course, old wildy would not make sense without free trade, because I can just let the person I want to trade with kill me to give him the "change" left after balancing the trade to fit the restrictions.
About the wildy: I think it would be good to have some world with old wildy and some with new wildy. That way there are at least some servers where the most common cause of death in the wildy is not boredom (
) but you can avoid campers at Fist of Guthix, (the only place I go to in the wildy) or other places like clan wars, or whatever you people like to do in the wild...
About free trade: When g. e. and trade limits were introduced I was a young non-mem with most f2p-quests done, and just about to buy his addy armour. In the "old days" addy and rune armour were quite hard to get (on f2p worlds), however after the changes, the prices dropped massively and everybody could afford it on g.e.
What was even more shocking to me was how the prices of talismans rose. When I had a spare tally in the old days I was been happy to sell it for <150 gp. With the g.e., due to ridiculous min prices, I could sell them for 5k !!
So the min/max prices are not purely good, as some people apparently think. There must be some way to avoid fluctuations tho.
