Oh no, I don't think you understood what I meant by Risk: These proposals are creating a new market. New markets generally stimulate a given economy. With new markets come risk (Risk is completely subjective, but think about it in RS terms, not RL terms). With risk, it limits as to who will participate in said market (due to fear of sorts), thus limiting the supply, and if the demand reacts properly, will create a boom. That is what I meant by risk (in a sense. Again, Risk is completely subjective).

As for your analogy, Yes- that would be logical since you're risking to get a better chance at something, like how it has always been in RS. However, that does not imply that everything should have a safe alternative as it eliminates risk, thus suffocating any new market that should arise.

The concept of risk and reward applies to real life as well as Runescape.

As for your point of new risk/new market, on paper it may seem like a good idea. However, the type of risk this entails is not on par with the rewards. There is 1 fishing spot, 1 resource area, etc. That is way too predictable and easy for PKers. If people know that this is the ONLY place to obtain such an item, people will camp there I guarantee.

The risk of PvP should reward by providing an enhanced rate of obtaining already-existing resources or provide a higher exp gain. Content itself should not be limited to this type of risk. I'd rather try to survive against one of the GWD bosses than a PKer. That's how dangerous this place is.

Besides clues, I don't know of any higher level (desirable) content being limited to complete PvP risk. That should already say something.

can we stop with the childish flamefest between pkers and skillers and just vote on personal beliefs on what would benefit the game best for the players involved?

my main interest are to keep the game flowing and alive and offer new ways to explore the game while keeping the game population good and satisfied. I would like to vote towards that philosophy. This does nothing but create insults and butthurts.
Both sides are not doing any persuasion of favor to their arguments (the radical ones, not the reasonable ones debating here)

Personally, I do see the pk community to be more of aggressive community but hey, they are part of what makes the OSRS experience OSRS. Like others, they are part of the community.

I like the new idea!

Tho , a thing that ive been thinking about..
When the new wilderness comes, itll make clue scrolls sooooooo much harder to complete!
Shouldnt you guys do anything about that, new rewards or something to make it worth while and take the even bigger risk than the one previous to the wildy update?

Some points to note:
- The amount of worlds is too high. People are so spread out over all the worlds that there would still be only a few players in the wilderness in every world. I suggest closing down 30-40% of worlds and open them up later on when the player base increases.
- For the chinchompa spot: Maybe they could make it so that there's one boxtrap already there that can be used by everyone. Not that you can lay down an extra box trap. When you do it like this people have to fight for the extra boxtrap.
