"I just wish jagex would take away free trade... yes i admit, i voted it back in when the poll came.. but that was the biggest mistake i had made.. now this game doesn't feel like any form of achievement... people seem to scam, bot and hack their way to achievements.... please jagex take away free trade... make this game good again... i understand you need to make future funds for the game through squeal and solomon... i understand that.. just take away free trade ... make accomplishments worth something again"

You know, I'm not going to say I told you so, because I didn't tell you specifically. But when free trade was removed, (I do not exaggerate...) I was one of the few who were riddled with happiness.
I was on the forums for a week straight telling people all the advantages it has over the free system. 99.99999% reduction in bots in a week. Money Making in rs was the best then it ever was. The people were more willing to act sincere and give even if it was a little bit. People were more willing to trust people for small amounts while rendering services.
The systems was constantly improving and right when it seemed like the trade limits would finally be solved, the ignorant complaints of players cause jagex to remove the only foolproof reduction in gold farming it has ever implemented.
And now we have the same players that complained over and over again during the "silver days" are complaining again.

Thank you MMG for at least attempting to face the wall of player scrutiny over these SoF updates. You know as well as I do that you will never placate them merely because they love this game so much they are unwilling to see it change (for better or worse). And since you know there is nothing you can do to stop their angst, I praise you not for your decisions but having the balls to face the players.
