I started playing again 5-6 days ago. My last login before this was 720 days ago. I never managed to start playing officially back then so I was unaware as to how the Wilderness is set up on this server.
I have been playing for a few days now and I would like to suggest a practical way which will make the wilderness more fun for everyone. Naturally, those who have been playing for a long time on this server will oppose my ideas because they are comfortable here i.e. sitting on multiple characters they are satisfied with killing another player by any means necessary, but I can guarantee that even these players will eventually realize that things have been changed for the better once they see the results.
As it stands, there are grave defects with the current set up of the Wilderness and I am dumbfounded as to how the players have allowed it to be this way(?). What a waste! I am aware the issues mentioned herein have been mentioned before because I can see many other players online are in agreement with me, but I do not think they have been presented in this way and that is why I am calling for a change to this nonsense (by the end of reading this you will no doubt agree that it is nothing short of nonsense i.e. NON SENSE - makes no sense. Simple English).
Here is the 1st and most important problem demonstrated in a plain way as follows:
I login.
I go to the Castle in the Wilderness.
I kill somebody.
He/she logs into their other account thereafter (which has already been planted and set up at the castle in wait).
I kill him on his 2nd account also.
He logs into his 3rd account and kills me.
What kind of nonsense is this? Where is the fun in that! If you think about it carefully, you realize this is merely another form of cheating except it comes in a disguise. How is it not so? He/she logs in to their other accounts which are full of food/weapons and he kills you while you have been in battle with his other account seconds previously: your health is low and your resources expended so you have no chance of winning. Thus this is a cheat.
The cowardly so called 'PKers' (those players who only enjoy winning/killing other players and cannot take it when they are killed) have made it this way in their desperate attempt to avoid being killed (losing). They do not care for dying once as long as they have killed you on another account soon after. A sore loser indeed! The only option left for the average player is to now retaliate in the same method i.e. train multiple accounts and use this same strategy. A miserable cycle you would agree.
The Wilderness is supposed to be a dangerous place. A place where you are weary once you enter. A place where you can die. Not everyone is to enter it. Only the strong survive here. This is not the place where you send level 3 scouts and teleport all over the place, looking, watching, hiding, being sneaky and logging into a million other accounts until you are certain that it is safe to enter. The WILD is THE WILD. There should be some suspense and uncertainty whenever you enter it. This is one of the main reasons that make it fun.
On top of this, it has been made so convenient to reload your items after death, to the point where within 30 seconds you teleport yourself through the portal, back to the battle field you just died on, and the person who killed you has not even picked up your items yet! You do not enjoy victory nor do you taste defeat because everything is occurring very quickly. This reduces morale and makes everything (the kill/death) feel pointless.
Does this make sense to anyone other than these losers who hate being killed so much that they were forced to find alternative ways to cheat so they can ensure they keep winning? They are in the wrong yet they will say "How is it cheating? It's allowed". I present you with a parable so that perhaps you may understand: did you know that in the country Finland it is legal to have sex with an animal? Does this then make it right?
Look, let us come to a common platform and review this carefully and take action appropriately. Do not stick with the same methods just because you are comfortable to remain there. There are better ways. We must ask ourselves "Can this game be made more fun and how?". I know that many of you have a problem with me because I talk a lot in game. Admittedly, I only do this to bring life/energy/excitement to the game... I do not take anything personally but I see that most of you prefer a quiet server. Imagine a new player joins today and they see a lively global. Don't you think they will want to stay? You are all too comfortable. Like old men and women playing a game! It's annoying me. Let us make changes and enjoy whatever time we have left on this game because there is no doubt that one day this will all be but a memory.
There are many solutions. I am sure some of you have even better solutions than mine. But here is what I think would work.
1. Only allow 1 character in the Wilderness at a time. If another character using the same IP address logs in and is inside the wilderness already, or
tries to enter the wilderness, they should be teleported behind bars in a secluded location where an NPC will use the "Wind strike" spell on them
until they slowly die. Or teleport them to the far corner of the World Map and block them from using the ::edge command so they have to walk.
2. When a person dies there should be at least a (minimum) 2-3 minute delay before they can enter the Wilderness again via portals. If they try to
login to another account which is outside of the Wilderness, and try use the portals, they should still be blocked for the delayed time. Do not
prevent them from walking into the Wilderness manually because this is more in line with the original Runescape.
3. If a player scouts the Wilderness on a low level account and spots somebody to kill, then they log in to their other account in order to head to
that destination, they should not be allowed to enter the Wilderness or use the portal while their scout is still inside the Wilderness. They must
log out of their low level scout account before their other account can enter. Once they logout, the other account should be delayed by 2-3
minutes before entering. This eliminates scouting and brings uncertainty to all players who choose to enter the wilderness.
4. Remove the portal from Castle. If people start walking up, we will see more PKers inside the lower level Wilderness like in the
original Runescape.
5. Delays in portals in the Wilderness should be increased from 10 seconds to 40 seconds. You should not be able to flee the Wilderness so easily.
It is a dangerous place.
These small changes will make the Wild more fun because other players become more difficult for you to kill. They are no longer as accessible to you. You have to look harder for each other. You have to wait longer to find them and you meet each other less often. Therefore, when you kill your enemy now, you enjoy your victory more. It actually means something. You can no longer scout the wilderness to check if it is safe to enter. This brings uncertainty and curiosity to enter the Wilderness. This brings more battles because you cannot see what is waiting for you or coming towards you. You must go and find out yourself. You are either brave or afraid. Once you enter, you cannot leave easily by teleporting in 10 seconds. The battles will also be on more equal terms because another account is not coming to cheat you. People start walking up the Wilderness more and spreading out. You see more fights occurring in lower level wilderness. This encourages solo pking and team pking simultaneously. Some players will depend on their friends to come and help them, whereas before they would have just used their other account. Others will enjoy solo PKing because they know another account cannot login to disturb their fight.
I have other ideas but everything mentioned here is a priority.
Consider carefully.

bro make 2 flats have one u port out on and fight run away on it when ur low and port out on second one and bank on the low one and boom keep fighting on second and repeat dont pk on anything other than 38's and flats the retards on this server have ruined all pure pking by making only defense accounts and expect you to make 100 counter accounts so just dont even bother

This is not a solution though, it only adds towards destroying the fun of the wild.
Why should we, the average players, now be forced into creating multiple accounts in order to repeat this pattern, just because these cheaters have made things this way? They are clearly in the wrong therefore the administration team should not be supporting such cheaters over legit players/pkers who are doing the right thing. I do not know about the other admins but I spoke to admin 'Wavy' once and he was very helpful to me and seemed reasonable. I do not see any reason for allowing this to continue except that the admins must not be aware of how much people are fed up over this.
Also, regardless who is right or wrong, it makes no sense to play on a server where you kill somebody and they come on another account to kill you within 5 seconds, or within 30 seconds they are already back because of the portal and "quick gear" feature. How is this fun for anybody?

This doesn't solve anything though? I can bring my team on this server and easily smash all of these other teams but what purpose will this serve? This will only give me and my team satisfaction of killing others but the defect would still exist on the server.
The fact is that if you go to the Castle in level 12 Wild right now and kill somebody, 9 out of 10 times, as soon as you kill him, another account will login within the area range and attack you. It is cowardly, pathetic and cringe-worthy that people have stooped so low as to play the game in this way.
This is a grave defect and I am surprised nothing has been done about it already in order to prevent it. Must we all now create 10+ accounts and start doing this also? Makes no sense. What is the point in playing the game like that? This is taking the joy away from player killing and something should be done.

Why are the forums unresponsive to this when in game 95% of people are in agreement whenever I bring it up on global chat?
I guess nobody bothers to check the forums because the staff do not respond. At least when Pyru was Admin he responded to these suggestions. I recall making a suggestion sometime 2 years ago and Pyru was more than willing to make changes in order to increase the quality of the RSCE gaming experience for his customers.
As for you noobs hiding in your holes, quiet as mice, terrified, wishing and praying this does not get changed, then know this:
Spexes sees you.

I don't know if these changes are the answer, but as someone who is new to the server and pretty much exclusively PK'd back in RSC I have almost no plans to do anything except low level border PK because of the state of the wilderness right now.

Why do you bring others into this AAAAAron? You need rescuing there my fellowman? Every conversation I have had with you, you were displayed before me as but a man in need of help. Thus is the difference between you and I made plain to you. Come! Come! Look, I will allow you to elect any member of your choice to fight your battles for you. Since you tremble too much alone, and do not possess the capacity to step to me alone, I see this as a Just thing for me to do - and indeed I am a Just man.
AAAAAron. Did I not make it clear to you in game already that I was a winner in this world! If you deny, why then did you testify to this within your self at that time? Thus you were forced into retaliation by kicking me ingame, muting me ingame and deleting my other forum thread - to feel some authority over the superior man. How pitiful, miserable and weak of you. Verily I have been laughing at you for it ever since while you have been unaware of this.
As for your comment to me ingame, and I am quoting you: "I have power over you". I already corrected you to rephrase this to "I have power over you on this server because I am an administrator", but you know something AAAAAron, I have more power than you may know... Not only over you personally, but your staff, whoever collects funds, and every other player here. You ought to be grateful I am not as pathetic and miserable as you.
You see I was doing a great service to this server but unfortunately your need to feel accepted by others blinded you to this. You felt pretty strong on our last encounter didn't you? Thinking that Spexes was feeling ganged up on by you and your nerdy friends. What you could not know was that Spexes was laughing at you all. Laughing at your condition. That condition is going to cause you problems in life - within a 6 month time period.
I intend to do some good to you and to this community so I will end with this reminder: RSC has long expired. What exists today is merely the desire of less than 200 human beings scattered world wide. It is therefore dangerous to keep a noob like you around. That is because you have not even been able to (yet) reach the most basic understanding of all as aforementioned. Thus, rather than recruiting and retaining players, you drive them away.

Finally there is someone who understands!
I even want to get rid of those portals in RuneScape completely.
Get rid of those portals! Portals should not be there in RuneScape, it should be something exclusive that benefits you, just like the Dragonstone Ammy's. Portals to Edgevilla and various wilderness places must disappear very hard. The wilderness must be a dangerous place where you don't dare to walk just like that.
As far as multiple accounts in the same place in wilderness are concerned, I may be punished very hard, for example, do an IP block if 2 characters are too close together in the wilderness only.
I totally agree with you to implement these changes immediately on this server. The server is only going to live more and it gives a much more old-school RuneScape feeling.

Yup, tried a bit of pking with my almost flats character. Guy god maging logs and logs in on his monk robe d-axe character until he also logs and then jumps onto another god mage character. Shit's not fun and the system is broken.
