I am in fact not a pure and the majority of the rs population do want it back. I would also appreciate it if you were not so stereotypical of pure as i have a lot of friends that are pures and are very friendly. Thank you for your very unhelpful comment. Noob.

In your eyes, its the majority, only because you want it back. IT WILL NEVER COME BACK. People are still hanging on the the idea that if they annoy Jagex enough, they will bring back pking. Whats so bad about bounty hunter? Before, the wildy was stupid. People decided to team people higher level than them, just for a chance to call them "noob". When people say, "Well it lost Jagex soooo many players! They lost money!" I think partially this way a way to get rid of the "more unhelpful" side of runescape's population. Siding with them makes you part of that group. Now, you say, you have lots of friendly pure friends? Well`, I once had a friendly pure friend too. We knew each other for about 2 months, but once he learned that I trained defense, he verbally attacked me. That happens with most pures, in case you havn't noticed. Pures are just people who feel a need to be better than everyone else. Not all pures, because some pures that wern't used for pking were not that persons main. Congraulations, you just made A fool out of yourself.

I didn't really because if you actually read the post you will see that there are alot of supporters beside me. I am not desperate for the wilderness to come back i was just wanting to let people know about this. Also i understand that there are alot of pures that have very bad attitude problems and i have had bad experiences with them as well but the fact of the matter is there are just as many regular runescape players with attitude problems as pures. So I'm afraid i didn't make a fool of myself at all.

If you read my post, the supporters are the people who probally shouldn't be playing runescape.

I absolutely HATE it when people like you stereotype pures. I am a pure, and I have no trouble admitting it. Do you think I have some kind of mental problem that forces me to flame and be the jerk you described? No, pures are no different than you or I. I know plenty of skillers who think that they are oh-so-better than I am.

Now, if we could stop discussing pures and get back to the topic at hand, it would be awesome.
I'm just wondering if the pk'ed people in that idea would lose their stuff or not.

I've read the posts here and so far there are 10 people posted against a return to the wilderness piking and three want it returned. Oh, and that three includes you.

As far as the RS forums goes it's certainly NOT the majority of RS players asking for a return. The thread represents an insubstantial amount of players. Which is why Jagex wont change it back.

Personally I think that piking brought the worst out in some people. Many of whom were pures so they could target unwary treasure trail seekers they totally overmatched by being a prayer or range pure and having a low combat level. My only sad point about the changes is that they happened when I'd just started to hit levels where I could have happely gone piking the pikers.

I meant the post that i gave the quick find code for on the rs forums obviously you, marco and yazakie didn't read it.

Did you not hear me say that MOST pures are like that? I never said all of them were. And what gave you the impression that I was defending non-pures? Frankly, I think that everyone has some jerk inside of them. It just when having the chance, pures seem to be the ones letting it out more easily.

True. A very large percentage of pures are of the rude type, including verbal assaults and whatnot. Anyways that's not the point of this post.

I really don't think it should come back. If you look from the middle of January to the end of May you'll see that the volume of rants in the rants forum about bringing PK'ing back went down (I know, I read it every week for the show). I feel for the most part people have either moved on or quit. I think RS is better without the wilderness, it brought out the worst in the people who used it. The price controls in trade and at the ge were heavy handed. The gravestones were good for plugging up that RWT hole. I mean looking back you still play RS today and you have adapted. This is the virtue of a quote that is so ever true in this case:

"The more things change... The more they stay the same."

Meaning that we had a huge destructive, or what appeared to be destructive change on December 10th. But now 6 months later we've all recovered and moved on. Basically meaning that in the end with bigger change (more change) in the end it will be business as usual.

Also, Yazackie, skillpure, and pat stop with the embers going back and forth. Play nice. Warnings will follow if it escalates anymore.

Shane talks the truth, but there is one thing good about Wilderness and needs to be installed into Bounty Hunter. I dont know what to call it, but as you go deeper into the wilderness, your lvl that you can attack lower levels or higher levels increases. I think is they installed this into Bounty Hunter, the population of Ruenscape would be much happier. And the main point of taking out PKing was to stop gold miners. It has gona down a little in bounty hunter, but they are smart and are still finding ways to sell gold. But now we have a "filter" for bounty hunter and cant bring items that have no use for PKing, they shyould just se that, put the level thing in, and much more people will be happy. I for one hate going into bounty hunter (members AND non-members) because I can be attacked by a level 20+ higher than me!! Its no fair that players who have low stats are 1-hit by a level 112 because theyre a low lvl. Least Jagex can do is mkae it fair and put the level system in.

if they were to instate a lvl difference into bounty hunter it would sorta be little the game as it's meant to be tho. imagine ur hunting your assigned target and all of a sudden u cant attack him cause they just ran to an area that prohibited it due to the difference in your combat levels. you'd be upset and stuck at the same time as they'd know ur after them by then and would stay outta the area where u could attack them, and you'd never get a new target until the first person left or you left yourself to come back in and hope for a different person assigned.

now if they were to add a different style of combat minigame that incorporated the level's of wilderness to an effect, however bounty hunter is setup to be almost impossible to add this type of thing effectively.

skillpure100 · **Posted:** June 18th, 2008, 6:04 am

I agree with 1taggerung1 there should be a lvl difference. I hate teleing to me target and being piled by maxed out lvl 112s.

Yeah, but if they programed bh to choose someone close to your level, that wouldn't happen.

i want it back but lets be realistic then jagex changed something back?... NEVER... so face it it never coming back if yuo can't put up whit things that is now why play at all then...

skillpure100 · **Posted:** June 18th, 2008, 7:55 am

Yes yazackie that is what i want and for it also to be one vs one combat. Good idea that your target is a close lvl to you. Maybe withing one ore two lvls max.
