@emybaba & tahki:
I agree with emy in essence, but I agree with tahki that safe worlds would be pointless, as the PKers want the wildy back for the specific purpose of preying on people like you & I.
However I am happy to compromise my views so long as the wildy poses the same danger to all players. The players that have an unfair advantage as it stands are the PKs that hunt in packs.
Solution 1: Remove multi-combat area's
Solution 2: Keep revs.
Have you ever gone to the wildy to mine a fallen star? If you ever have, you'll know how many revs turn up. It's insane. Revs are attracted by people, the more people there are the more revs attack the group. So by keeping revs they will be more likely to attack PK clans than individuals (either PK or non-PK)
@sare tog:
although this is true, there is nothing we can do about it. I can resign myself to this fact so long as the wildy remains fair and balanced for all players.
@hersir sah:
"Too easy work" is the problem? Then why does it have to be PKing that makes it harder? Why aren't you badgering for other difficulties to be introduced? Me thinks you just wanna murder kids, steal their 15K of items, then say "hahaha! Take that you (expletory name calling)" while they try to explain how hard they worked to get that full addy set you stole.
IMO You are not a very nice person >.>
@iron 1965:
You have a great point there, as 90% of people want wildy, why would the safe worlds be crowded?
But I disagree. No one will have a need to use a safe world unless they have business in the wildy (mage arena, agil course, abyss, green drags, KBD, clue scrolls, etc.) so I doubt they would become "over crowded". Not to mention the fact that safe worlds would render the wild pointless, as it is being put there for the sole purpose of giving PKs like hersir sah the opportunity to callously murder people like us with minimal risk to themselves...
Morals and ethics aside, the wild needs to pose the same risk to all, including PK pack hunters.

@i the alek:
I am a player of old as well, and they are the two things are exactly what was bad about the old times: being piled, and having to spend so much time shouting out your merch's.
Additionally, I hated the instable markets... What is is about these three things that you call a positive?
I'm just glad that they're ONLY removing the trade limits, and not getting rid of the GE all together.
@but:
thank you for copy/pasting the same message onto this board multiple times. I've gotten SO much more info from it than I did reading it the 1st time :<. Spammer <.<
@darzo5:
you can own multiple accounts so long as they don't interact with each other. Read the Rules.
@only1dud:
Thanks ;D

before ppl starting to shout, this is just my oppinion.
when i started to play runescape it was in the time wild and free trade still excisted.
i started out like every1 else, i was a noob with no skills and no money so i started to pick up cowhides...no
GE that said i can get max 100 ea for it, NO... i sold it to the highest bidder !
i could make 150 ea instead of 100, with the profit i bought iron ore from low levels, 10 gp ea under the price i could get from it...i started to trade and it was fun.
when i became higher level with a bit more cash i was spending a whole day in varrock (old skool ppl remember the place) to try to buy a black g armor piece and like me there were hundreds of other ppl trading, trying to get the best price...it was amazing when you finally got a piece, back to skilling cause it cost all you made so far.
back then a clue was awsome when you made it out alive and got a nice reward, you had to run like hell true wild, no time to think cause in every corner could be a clan that wanted to kill you...now some dull revenants floating around...you can outrun them without a problem...yay what a excitement it is now :/
when you needed cash you asked a good friend to borrow you 10m and the next week you payed him back, simple as that.
or you went nats running for other ppl etc.
we had dropparty's where some1 dropped items on the ground on a deserted place (for friends only)...after 3 min the items started to show and you could pick them up no matter how much it was worth, now you need to use the party room, were every1 can pick it up not only you friends.
i think it was a way better time back then then it is now in runescape, and i hope many many ppl think likewise en jagex returns wild and free trade the way runescape was fun for alot of ppl.

@But
Your Awsome!!!
I totally agree. Im a player from the oldie days. I remember when what we play today was called runescape2!!! I remember when everyone carried around sleeping bags incase their fatigue stat got to high....yeah they did do that back in the day. When I reluctantly made this account in runescape2 the wildy was the best. I remember spending hours in the boneyard. But then 2007 happened. Thats when i slowly started to stop playing regulary. Now its coming back and im pumped. OLDIES FTW!! VOTE YES EVERYONE :O !!!!

Getting cynically killed by a high lvl for your Addy armour is part of the game, in my opinion the game was a ton more fun when that level of risk was involved. Sucks to get killed and lose your stuff, but hey, that's just the way it is/was. I can't believe how soft some people are.

and about the wild, i loved it to pk
i joined a pk clan (gladz) and we had pk trips daily, i loved the excitement of killing or being killed, cause there were many pk clans and if you encountered 1 and it was a better 1 then yours then it was your stuff that was gone...the thrill it gave to walk in wild and chasing or being chased, i really miss it
but thats also my oppinion...some ppl like it some ppl hate it.
