Going to try and make this quick, just a random thought I had. Basically, Deadman Mode would be the true revival of the old game's amazing pking content that is currently not offered in the main game, however there's quite a controversial argument about how the game should be played/reasons why it dies so quickly.
I think the main reason people play/enjoy it is the fact that you build towards a goal, have a fun pking environment, and also can go from a dollar to a dream in a few minutes if you're talented enough. Not to mention that although it's a grind, if you're cautious you can max out combat fairly quickly.
This 'achievement' feeling is what makes me enjoy playing, and I assume others are similar. I would say Ironman would be a similar feeling, but the fact that you're working so hard to make an amazing account and your end-game is pretty much nothing, completely pointless. I can see why most players who don't pk, have no interest in it, or never tried it can find this fun, because the game's end-game is pretty similar. Max out, do slayer, do some skilling/diaries, and pretty much do nothing apart from get cool gear and kill monsters. That's fine, everybody plays differently, but what do you think about a true grind game where nobody could trade, there was no 'safe spots' (like banks) and you were an ironman, start from level 3, grind your ass off, but you could pk anywhere. Literally you could kill people in any place you want apart from the 1 step on the bank stall (unless previously in combat).
I feel like this would be fun, it would give end-game to ironman, and you could fully loot kills (obviously off of other ironmen) which would make pking have a purpose, you don't NEED 85 slayer to get a whip, you can kill somebody with one, but you can't buy/sell/trade them, it would be a game mode where if you want resources, you get them yourself or kill somebody for them.
Thoughts?

in which case would take a VERY long time to earn, gold selling from farmers or swappers would be almost non-existent since you couldn't just trade or farm gold
