    @Marpis, I do not mean it directly. We have our own opinions. But how the No'ers act on the forums, talk sht to us yes'ers, and think RWT'ers coming back and whining about everything, made me say that. RWTers are still here without free trade. Botting, still here without free trade. F2P mining? That stuff is already mobbed. I can barely find myself something good to train on on f2p. Calling me immature for an opinion of mine is stupid, that is my opinion, it's what I think from what I've seen. I can prove we have different opinions, one example, quickmarch, we might have same, we might have different.

    @quickmarch, thank you for standing up for me and explaining why I said what I said.

    If they can bring back the old RS that would be sweet. I used to play it back in 06', always botted and had acct that was lvl99 in 4 nearly 5 skills. Too bad I forgot digits in that username, I had to start over. so im here, starting over!

    I heard about this referendum. This is pretty rad, but the reason I quit RuneScape for good was because of the banishing of the Wilderness and Free Trade. I don't think I'll start playing again just because they bring it back.

    I quit for the same reason, but I have kinda got back into it due to the possibility of the wildy and free trade to come back

    The only one sucking at maturity here is you. And we know that it's a fact that botting will majorly increase if the update goes through. Atm people only bot with their mains, but after Free Trade they will make armies of bots just to collect money. The number of bots will explode, especially f2p.



    It will not help those legit players who want to mine in the mining guild without having to compete with dozens of bots. That's not "jumping into conclusions" at all. This certainly won't help players in all categories as you say. Also, voting Yes or No has nothing to do with maturity. It's just an opinion of how they like to play their game.



    You and the no-voters are wrong, they are just scared of having the wilderness becoming dangerous again.
    If you get scammed in today's trading system then you deserve to be scammed. The 1st trade screen shows clear exclamation marks if an item is removed/added, and the 2nd trade screen gives you a second chance to see what your trading. Hey if you lose your time to a scammer then you either need glasses or something else to help you.

    Botters? A lot of people get membership to PK. When the wilderness removed they straight up lost 60k members. It's not the yes voters fault if the botters come back its Jagex's job. You no voters should complain to Jagex. WoW took severe action against botters, and they have a good MMO going with free trade and a close thing to wilderness where you loose your items.

    And yes, you no voters are being pre-mature about this as you guys forgot what Runescape was, how it was made, and how it became one of the best browser MMO before it self-destructed in 07. A year or something ago China banned gold farming and selling gold for real life things. We know that the majority of these botters were Chinese (RSdemon). Jagex also said they've come within a breakthrough a month ago to tackle botters.

    But you guys don't really care about scamming and botters, enough with that bull shit. You want the wildy to be open so you can have it easy while killing your green dragons, your kbd, and your corp beast. You want mining runite ore easy, and the agility arena easy. You want your clue rewards easy. While we Pkers risk 1m to kill players (who are also risking 1m) and to find out were getting 50k worth of loot. While we Pkers have to fucking sit in a corner and wait 30 minutes just to get a 25% earned potential and 2 hours to get 100% ep just to see an "improved" drop from the kills we get. We also have to constantly let ourselves die with 100-200k so we can get better drops, because of Jagex's "improved" pvp system (that you think is better than the previous on).

    But thankfully that's about to be changed, as were almost at 1million votes and we have a 90% advantage on you. So I can't wait to loot your items when I Ice barrage you while your doing your clue.

    Don't think I'm talking about only you, I'm talking about every single no voter.

    To get back on topic:

    Mod MMG told this dude that they needed 500k more votes (We were at 550k votes when he said this).


    Also:
    "959895 people have voted so far. When will we hit 1,000,000? It is up to you guys! "

    THANK YOU King!! ~ Also 99-k votes and rising. Looking good people. When would this end up happening if it did? Obviously the community feels 90% strong about this (which is quite the voting margin). ~ If we are still 500k short, dang... Don't forget to tell your friends to get on and vote for this too!

    Haha, it's hilarious how some people really believe that we are 500k short on votes. Of course we are not short on votes. More than that: they will implement the old wildy and free trade 100% sure, they have been working on it and talking about it for months I guarantee you.

    There is only 1 reason why they will keep saying "We need x more votes!". It's because people will believe it, and try to get all of their friends to vote. And thus, they are spreading the word that runescape is bringing back free trade and old wildy, probably even to people that haven't played in ages. When you realise this, you know that it is an ingenous marketing strategy, and the best possible way to get a big part of the playerbase that they lost in 2007, back into the game.

    Furyan, good call! <-- That makes sense. ~ I did consider that, but I have to keep in mind that I am thinking about Jagex... And for now I assume that this is all a marketing ploy of somesort and the will not bring back the wildy or freetrade because they don't want to anger that 7%.

    i had a little doubt in my mind that we wouldnt get wildy back because the votes we going so slow, but since it hit 1m, i have no doubt that it will come back

    It always confuses me why people go into wars about how we got here, and where we go when we die.

    I completely agree. As it is, the botting community has a far better programmer:leecher ratio, the majority of the people who use the bots here also create them. Bringing back the old form of things will just cause leechers to come along, and that's not the sort of people I enjoy spending time with in a community. For me, this is a programmers/computer enthusiasts forum.

    Yes, I'd love the old wilderness back, it brings back that feeling or fear into the game which was needed, but I have no use for an increased trade limit, and the GE currently is a really great way of buying things, what'll happen when the economy issues arise due to the no maximum or minimum?

    I can understand why others would want it back, mainly because it does have some benefit to you/your friends, but I think this will just damage the botting community.

    I had a feeling when Jagex made the original announcement that it would be coming back regardless; they wouldn't announce a poll for an update of such magnitude if they had no intention of doing it. I agree with Furyan in that it was simply a marketing move to get back as many of the players they lost in '07 as they could. Those who quit back then (myself included) wouldn't keep up with RS news anymore, so Jagex is relying on word of mouth to spread it.
    Long ago, the '90s Nicktoons lived together in harmony. Then, everything changed when the century turned. Only Avatar, the best of the 2000's Nicktoons, could save them. But when the channel needed it most, the show finished. Four years passed and Mike and Bryan created the new Avatar: Legend of Korra. And although the show itself is great, it has a long way to go before it can live up to The Last Airbender. But I believe Korra can save Nickelodeon.

    I think they were always going to bring it back, at least since the new CEO took over a year or two ago...I remember seeing an interview with him saying that he wanted to re-introduce it/make it as similar to how it was as possible. So yeah, genius marketing.

    Noo, I just do extensive researching on all the RS sites and know. So far nothing but fakes from desperate people who have know lives...

    Yes. A lot of PKers do target green dragon killers because it, if I recall recorrectly, rewards more due to the victim being stocked up on dragonhides and dragon bones.

    yes RISK, along with armor and om noms.

    So, I still think they should keep the completely p2p worlds. I like that as an idea anyhow.

    I definitely do too. I think PvP worlds are one of the only two good things to happen to RS since '07 (the idea of the GE being the other, except that imo it was poorly implemented). However, I also want back the plain old wilderness. I'm betting they will have exclusive PvP worlds and the rest will be 'old' Wildy worlds for F2P, and Members will also get 'current' (ie safe) Wildy worlds for clue scrolls and such. But we'll have to wait and see.
