FULLY SUPPORT :) All worlds would be nice to make the wildy more dangerous (in my opinion it's not dangerous enough, but it's close) (the negative to all worlds, is it might make it a little too dangerous, but who's knows, that might be a good thing).

The people who are asking for brawlers, statuettes and stuff like that are just looking for an easy way to make money or gain xp. This would ruin the economy, devalue skilling completely and just be completely useless

By the way, people who want to make money pking, ever heard about HIGH RISK fights?

So the only way, a player should make money pking is by high risking is what your saying? Have you ever done a high risk fight in 2014? Do you know how lucky you have to be to kill someone, usually with a high 70 ags cause its 2014 and everyone safes their balls off? You probably don't because you probably don't pk. Also, explain how it would "ruin" the economy. An abusable method sure, but extra loot on a target kill ruining the economy? Was the economy ruined in 08 when the bh system gave people a small sum of cash for "x" amount of target kills? No not really, the only time anyone could ever have claimed extra incentives ruined pking was probably way into 2010 when there was a lot of 76k tricking going on. Remove that kind of abuse, and actually reward pking and it really won't hurt the economy as much as you skillers/pvmers make it out to be. As for pvmers you shouldnt even complain because when theres more people pking, items such as the ags, bandos, dfs, barrows etc all sky rocket simply because more people need and use them. Only people who can somewhat complain are people who make money off skilling.

Extra loot on target will ruin the economy, people will find a way to abuse it, either by going into the wildy with a clan of 60+ people and just being assigned eachother as targets, taking turns, or some other way.

The oldschool community is amazing at finding ways to abuse things, just look at Nmz and some of the scams/lures that have been happening... playing rs since 1976, 40 year vet cape soon

THIS. failed the poll....
Jagex stop now before you really start losing serious players simply because you can't hold your horses. No need to have all of your guns blazing.

It's sad because most of the time, when something fails a poll in your eyes you disregard it, however when it's something of your choice being added to the game you push forward with it.

It failed, stop trying to revise artisan and BH. move on to bigger and better updates. Or wait, is it because you've already started to develop it?

Making money from PKing is hard and should be hard, since you're taking it from other players. Yes the AGS, Staff of the dead, occult necklace are OP stuff that should not have been added but it's not hard to find people who just use whip/dds'es. And it would be even more rewarding if you manage to kill people for AGS/sot*/occult necklaces with cheaper weapons.

PKing should not be made profitable to losers just because losers could make profit during the BH/PVP era.

A small amount of extra loot should be implemented, but you are right about it never passing the poll. The skillers in this game mostly ruin it, since the biggest reason people play oldschool is the pvp system.

Currently even if you get 3 times as many kills as deaths you lose money, because of gloves not dropping to the killer as gold and because of the cost of resources.

The best update to PvP you could possibly make would be for gloves to drop as gold, none of this useless stuff you are doing now.

Or, just poll craters with normal target system and no added drops.

So many people from high level PKing teams have recently come back to the game because they heard craters were coming back.

Mod Ronan has been posting a solution for that on RSC.

Original message details are unavailable.
Untradeable items rework
In the wilderness and PvP worlds your untradeable items are easily retrieved when you die with them. There isno risk involved with using items such as void, fighter torso and fire cape outside of lag, forgetfulness and people maliciously blocking you from your items.
Considering the advantage you can gain by using these untradeable items it doesn't seem right that there is no risk involved and absolutely no reward to the player that manages to take you down.
In order to add some risk to using untradeable items and to make PKing more rewarding I suggest creating an NPC where untradeables lost to another player can be retrieved in exchange for an appropriate amount of gp. When a player pays the NPC the money for the item(s), the player that killed them receives the gold as a reward for doing so.

Example
Player A is using a fighter torso and dies to Player B.
Player A goes to the NPC and pays 75k to get his fighter torso back.
Player B receives the 75k that Player A spent as a reward for killing him.
