Of course jagex released this so called "poll" already knowing what they are going to do. The poll is just there to, umm, get us excited :P

 

Well it's working. There are 'riots/celebrations' on nearly every world for it. Everyone's gone crazy.

 

Looking on the positive side? It's bosshunting time.

I was mass-refreshing to see if any names I recognised came up, when one did... Mine. :|

 

This is a Chicago-style election.

 

Hell, I expect The Old Nite will be voting, if he hasn't already.

This is a stunt; it's let me vote multiple times, both logged in and not logged in. :wink:

 

Pretty sure it's set in stone it's coming back, they wouldn't tease us like this. Think they just want to see how dedicated people are to brining it back. But f yeah.

 

How dedicated, or how misled people can get? :unsure:

I'm sure at least 30% of the votes are people who were thinking there would be a "no" option.

Never have i seen a vote so [developmentally delayed]ed in my entire life. I mean, seriously? No no option, people can vote for you and to top it all you can multiply your votes by repeatedly inserting your name. I bet 5k there'll be some bot to mass vote on this.

 

I really don't like this, while free trade is nice, it just opens a floodgate of RWT agents. Not only that, but the wildy is fine the way it is. If people want to PVP, they go to a PVP/bh world. If they just want to wander around, they go to a regular world. They'd be better off by improving the pvp drop system then allowing the former method, also a way to rwt.

 

This gets a no no from me :thumbdown: :thumbdown:

So i had no idea i was voting yes i really wanted to say a big no to this.

 

Also this seems to leave a few holes in the way the game is now. So what will happen with the ge with free trade? Street and rare prices? What about botting? Credit card fraud? They did make these huge game changes for a reason, and after spending years trying to make up for it they are just going right back where they started? Seems like this is going to cause quite a lot of problems. Also i find it funny at all the people that want the old wildy back. I seem to remember a large amount of players saying the wilderness and pking system was broken before these changes.

 

On a lighter note i will be happy to see staking making a come back.

 

Maybe they actually sorted out something with a bank or Paypal or something? I would really really love to hear what precautions they would/will/have take(n) to stop the game going completely FUBAR. What's changed since 3 years ago?

EDIT: The image was a bit much. Sorry.

 

You can be for or against it, that's cool. But let's not be ignorant.

 

The wilderness is not fine. It is overcrowded with a crippled drop element that doesn't encourage actual pking. RWTing is still alive and thriving with free trade or not.

I was thinking, if this works, and free trade and wild comes back, would things go "back to normal" (as in when we did have free trade and wild 3+ years ago), and we would see again *World 2 Fally Park* or *World 18 Edgeville* ?

They just removed where it said "Guiness world records" at the bottom of the voting page.

 

Fake. Fake.

They use web templates and that's on their publicity web pages. Could easily have used the wrong template. You're looking too far into it.

 

EDIT: fixed a mistake

Hopefully all the people logging in for the first time since 2007 will flock to where they know, i.e Fally park, reinstating it as a trading hub. GE just doesn't have the same magic :P

Not to mention the fact you can simply spam click "Vote now" without even entering a username?

 

Lol..

By changes i mean all the things they did to "make up" for free trade and old wilderness. Pk and bh worlds. The various times they moved things around in the wildy, ge and it's machanics, item lending. Although some of the updates will still be great after free trade is back (ge and item lending), it just seems like they wasted good development time trying to fill what they took out.

My gray hair from waiting for this update to come back! I myself am a pk'r, I am in a pk clan, and it sucks. People run to their little bh stairs trying not to die over 40k lol. This is a huge plus for all the pk clans out there as well as pk'rs. I hate to say it, but I think Jagex is already bringing this back, the "poll" is just there to get the reactions from the people and to spread the news to take part in a "event".

Biggest [bleep] move in the history of ever perhaps? Seriously if this is a joke, I'm dumping my bank in the party room and unsubbing. Not the straw that broke the camels back, more like a roundhouse kick.

Wow... I really hope this passes.

 

But then again, it'll ruin a lot of stuff if it's on every world like it was. I train at armored zombies, and i would hate to lose d boots + whip + other stuff every other trip i make there... Meh.

 

I hope they tweak it. Maybe making the chaos altar a safe zone, and adding a bank to clan wars. And then adding a safe way to get from there to the chaos altar. Like a cart ride or something.

 

And also there's slaying dragons in the chaos tunnels. Or rather, killing anything in the chaos tunnels is gonna' be a hassle if it's on every world.

 

 

So, i voted for all of the accounts i have. I really hope they make some tweaks though, to keep what's safe now, still safe.

 

 

PS: The GE is flooded with people protesting to vote. AND there's 105 people reading this topic O.O

 

I think it'll get passed...
