So, if you're at this article, then you probably play RUNESCAPE. Am I right?
I was just wondering if you like Clan Wars. If so, do you enjoy the old or the new Clan Wars.
Also, do you like the fact that Jagex took away the Wildy and stripped us of money sellers?
Additionally, do you like Bounty Hunter where you can kill anyone that is at max 40 levels lower or higher?
Last but not least, are you looking forward to Jagex's new Wildy where you DON'T GET YOUR VICTIM'S DROPS AND ONLY REWARDS FOR KILLING THEM?
Thanks for your time people!

i have never been much of a fan of pking but i have seen lots of protest over taking away the wilderness but it was one of the steps they had to take to stop real world trading. and since then, jagex has worked hard to bring some new stuff in replacement to the wild, like bounty hunter and the new clan wars where u can get rewards for killing other players.
but the issue is still the same if players are allowed to pick the drops of their opponent, the real world traders would just wear expensive armour and weapon on them in the new wildy replacement areas and wait for u to finish them off so that u collect their items in exchange for whatever money u paid them. so that is why u currently get the 'rewards' for pking instead of their equipped items.
i dont think that there is anyway out of this stuff... not a way that i can think of... maybe jagex will come up with a better solution later... but i certainly cant think of a better way to stop all this... umm... maybe making real world trading legal..? i dont think that will happen lol

Even if it was legal the people that do it aren't monitored by any agency. That's where the big problem lies. You give them your credit card number & they take as much as they want, usually cleaning you out. The credit card companies then have to deal with the theft which is why they threatened to pull their support for Jagex. With little to no way to collect membership payments Jagex would have gone broke.

i think runescape is becoming better but i think they are been too safe. Like taking the wildy away was a horrible thing, and i heard that they took it away because the new players (aka noobs) were complaining that when ever they went there they would get killed with easily. so jajex thought...hmm...if we get rid of the wildy we can target new players who are under the age 13...(and yes i know you ahve to be older..but who actually ticks they are under 13) so now there are 8 year olds playing runescpae and every where you go where you might get killed like bounty hunter, your just about to kill them when they run away and out of the pit.
And yes i do like clan wars, it great fun no so much for the xp if you keep dieying, its great xp for higher lvls with high strngth. I dont like the fact that they took away the wildy because even though i kept on diying when i first started playing and going to the wildy, i got over it and when i was just begining to make some decent cash...woosh...the wildy was their one day and gone the next. But now i cant wait for that new wildy thing the pvp, and yes i am happy with not getting the persons drops bt getting other things because whats the point if getting the peoples drops if they are wearing cheap things like d'hide. I think they should give things like tokens that can be traded for experience points on combat skills, better weapons that cannot be bought and armour that cannot be bought, and it wold be good if ever now and then you get some food so you can heal after finishing of someone with like 10hp left.
Have a great day and happy mylotting!

I obviously like the new graphics of runescape and the new moving of the character, so as the new clan wars. I want the old wildy back though coz in that time i could pwn those lvl 30-50 noobs. OO. bounty hunter? though question. i can go into the med-level crater but i can go in back the low-level crater. I want our old wildy back and i can take it like before.......

I'm really looking forward to the reinstatement of some *hopefully* fairer pvp system in RS. I mean with Bounty hunter, I lost interest in trying to kill anyone on my 62 pure, because I kept on getting mauled by the lvl 80s and 90s. SO I raised his def to 45 and atk to 60 and str to 81, in anticipation for beating down the rune pures in the pvp worlds. Anyway, Jagex said that the rewards would make pking a profitable occupation again. Hopefully this is true because the ONE thing that kept me playing runescape half a year ago (or was it more?) was the thrill and ecstasy of beating down people with my 20s with rune scim. Bounty hunter is really unbalanced and gives serious advantages to the players toward the high lvl cutoff. Maybe pvp worlds will be much more balanced.
