Wilderness and Free Trade will return - 17 January 2011

Do you want ice cream?

YES

NO

DON'T CARE

 

About ice cream: Ice cream comes in many flavors and is delicious. Ice cream is awesome. By voting yes, you have unlimited ice cream

 

But wait, we're not gonna mention that ice cream have high saturated fat and cholesterol levels and directly cause heart disease, stroke, and diabetes.

 

You can imagine the outcome of the poll I just described. That is just the fairest poll ever. And now just one day after the poll closes we're announcing that ice cream is to everyone in 2 weeks. Make sure to grab those "I bought back ice cream!" back T-shirts.

 

Nowhere does the referendum, poll, any wildy/trade adverstisements, and now this thread mention that RWT'ers, botters, and scammers, WHY free trade and wild was removed in the 1st place. We got those explanations back in 2007. Now we get nothing. Nothing even in the FAQ about how Jagex is going to deal with the initial problem - rwting and cheating. In the past year botting have become worse than ever before. (it's very simple to see...go to every world Varrock Aubury. Tell me what you see there. )

 

Personally, between the first botted petition, the 2nd terribly biased poll, the 'vote now!' banner everywhere, the "I bought back wildy" T-shirts, and now official forum threads that does yet more PR, I've seen ENOUGH PR for wild/free trade. There are at least 7% of the rs population (84,000) who were not influenced by the terribly biased poll (and much higher here on tip.it) and are forced to live with it. I really don't need (or want) people telling me how great free trade is. I've lived through it and I know, but I've also lived through hoardes of gold farmers at every resource spot. All I want now is just an answer from Jagex on how exactly did they manage to solve the whole RWT/cheating problem. Enough with the PR. Jagex needs to be candid now and just tell us openly how they're going to work with the gigantic can of worms they re-opened.

I would prefer even to fail with honor than to win by cheating - Sophocles

Was it necessary to make another thread instead of posting in numerous other ones with people with similar opinions.

Won't necessarily be more bots after free trade is out. Most of the bots used to day is open source and free of charge to use, therefore it has made it easier for those who wants to bot, to bot.

1 Verac's Helmet - 1 Guthan's Platebody

No one would read it if it was just jumbled up with the rest.

Why is what he has to say more important than what others have to say?

Stupid bots. I made a thread on RSOF complaining about the lack of "report button" response urgency. Tbh, I think p2p dollars > player satisfaction

I've merged these two topics. You may think what you have to say is more important than anybody else's view but it isn't, so don't make new topics for things that are already here.

Big thanks to Stevepole for the signature!^

HOLY MOTHER OF PEARL!!!!!

 

I used to be addicted to RuneScape, I'd play for hours everyday for years....then Free Trade and Wildy was taken and I struggled to continue for a year or so then finally quit. I thought that for me at least, Runescape was ruined forever. I haven't actively played Runescape since about 2008, and for some strange reason I thought I'd just look at the website for a second.....and I saw.....

 

IT'S COMING BACK!!!! I would've NEVER dreamed this day to come. I remember the hundreds and hundreds of times it was begged and pleaded and Jagex always stood firm that NO it would NEVER be returned to normal. Heck, I'm so excited!

I'm looking forward to years of no whining about free trade and wilderness, but that's just too good to be true

Instead people will whine about getting a measly (but consistent) 300k loot when PKing, instead of a 19m VLS and 5m ancient statuette. :rolleyes:

Well if they want that they can go to the dungeon like everybody else

 

It's just that it'll end up being devalued what with revenants losing their freezing powers and such

Not really. If anything, it'll become more expensive. That area will be swamped by PKers, so you'll have PKers freezing you and TBing you while speccing you with DDS's, while the while Revs smack you with 200+ hits.

Won't the revenants attack them too?

Forinthery Bracelet. Besides, a clan of PKers can set up shop at revs and then just kill any soloers or other groups that try to come.

I do too. I think you wrote a Tip.it article or maybe even were in the Editorial team? Anyway, that's exactly what Jagex said. They thought they were so right about it... Pfft! the costumer is always right. :P

It will become a turf war. Strongest clan gets to control the dungeon! Fun mini-game tbh. :mrgreen: Btw, why hasn't Jagex made a mini-game like Turf War from GTA IV?

Considering soul split does heal and smite , wouldnt you get less fights because you are going for the smite yet your healong youself which will cause players to not fight most of the time, but smite does only smite and not heal yourself

This didn't need a new topic.
