.. really?!
I'll actually gain some quite a lot of interest if they reintroduce wilderness and free trade the way it originally was.
Voting right now with all my avail accounts.
Is it possible to make a script that allows you enter all the usernames of your accounts and submits a vote using all of them? (Having realistic breaks between each submission!)
I found out about this like an hour ago, I voted like 20 times.
OMG OMG OMG :) Vote people :)
You ninja'd me :p
There is like an additional 1k votes every 10 seconds. I find it amusing hitting refresh over and over seeing the number skyrocketing :p
We can finally fire up our old armies and make our mains rich again. :)
The big question though will they really do it, and what will they do to stop real world trading?
And voted 5 times :)
VOTe!!!!!!
Does this mean all acounts ever made, if so there is no way the vote will go though.Quote:

Doubt it will happen, in the post concerning this it says "we'll revert to our old ways if the vast majority of runescape agree with it."
Sounds sketch, I think they're trying to make an illusion of trying to do something, just to get some of their players back before the inevitable disappointment. But if it indeed comes through will be truly awesome!
I'm quite sure we'll get wildy and free trading back. Looking at the votes, that'll happen quite soon :p but I wonder how many level 3's will bot after the update. There probably won't be any f2p free trees lol.
wow need to reach atleast a million votes...I don't know if it will reach that high...but I did vote with all my current accounts.
Voted 20 times.

we need to make a script to parse the highscores and just grab names, and then enter them into the contest....checking "anonymous" randomly...of course all the same ip might be weird...
EDIT: ^ looks like someone beat me to the idea. Lol
Could someone write a script that just goes through all the users on the runescape Highscores and votes with those names? :D
I voted with 17 accounts.
Here's my 2 pennies: If JaGeX is really going to bring back the old wilderness and free trade, I know for a fact they will upgrade their bot detection and will be able to tell if a bot is trading money to a main.
Idea for a script:
http://services.runescape.com/m=hisc...l.ws?rank=6565
Put a random rank there, get all of those usernames and submit them. :D
Result from this update: massive increase in SRL's activity?
E: Also, a possible problem with making a script parse out and retrieve all the usernames and submit them is that, AFAIK, there is no way to check whether or not a username has already been submitted. Hence, if we all run the same script and submit the same usernames, several times, Jagex has an easy way to see who was cheating the votes or not.
By the way, I feel like noting that the voting script would have to go through a proxy for (preferably) each vote. Otherwise, such a script could just make JaGex nevermind this whole thing. Also, shuffle the results you parse a lot! In case it's not obvious; DO NOT vote sequentially with the parsed results.
Jagex really wants its players back:
"Register your vote by the 14th of January 2011
Please register your vote if you want to see the return of free trade and the danger of the original wildy. 100,000 votes certainly won't be enough. Perhaps not even 1,000,000. It will take you and every one of your friends, ex-friends and probably even enemies to register sufficient votes to bring it back.
Simply put in your character name and if you want to stay anonymous just tick the box. Make your voice heard and your vote count! "
Get teh old account creatorz out!!!! VOTE VOTE VOTE!!!! Wo0o0o0o0o0ot!!!! OMFGz!!!!!

Does this mean that the Grand Exchange could dissapear?
Lol I don't know what to do >.<
PS: 330k votes in a couple of hours? Oh my god...
Come on!!!
Voted on 10 accounts or so :)
You guys can use the same account to vote over and over.
Edit: Cant believe there are faggots on Rs forums who dont want it back...
Guys if this rate keeps up there will be no need to make a voting script.
I think the safest method for auto-voting this poll would be to make new accounts and have them vote, while periodically switching ips because of:
"* If you do not have a RuneScape account, click here to create one. After creating an account, you may return to this page and vote using the account's player name."
On second note: Bot away! I don't think Jagex cares if people cheat their poll system, I think they hope and expect people to do so. Why else would they allow you to create a new account to be able to vote? Why else can any username be input without any confirmation/verification from the actual account user? Furthermore, they are encouraging people to spread the word and there isn't a "no" option on the poll either. Jagex will definitely be going through with this update IMO.
Unless they got some program for that to do that... Else its to hard. This thing will hit probably hit 3 million votes by january 14th I dont know if they can check each ip...
Also Jagex must really have some anti-bot anti-rwt for them to consider bringing back the wilderness and free trade.
Edit: Do you guys think this has to do with the fact that WoW is doing a major-better-update to there game.
I'm not sure why JaGeX are doing this... Have they really fallen this low?
This makes me uneasy...^Quote:
Google.analytics.***
Guiness world records*
No logging in
First of all google.analytics is tracking it therefore they are watching the internet trafficking of the web for this vote. This means they are tkaing the count and the age groups into consideration to whose coming into the site and how much it crashes or many other statistics.
2nd guiness world records is being set. This is by the trafficking of the web which they are watching to make a world record of the people coming into the database or some other topic so jagex is setting a world record aparently
3rd no logging in... thats just obvious that this is only for the record and trafficking becuase if this was a real poll and jagex was listening they would make you log in otherwise what i did was i officiated 30+names to get wildy back for myself and friends accounts. OBVI fake
If it was real you would log in... there wouldnt be suspicious trafficking activities and a record wouldnt be in place and it would be just totally different and a main page poll. If anything theyll tell us april fools in april that this was a complete joke and they set a record off all of us and you other people.
It does seem a bit odd how you can easily just create an account and just register your vote in under a minute
I've voted with all my accounts, but im not sure if this might happen.
