Except, in absolutely every area of FFXIV, there is at least one outpost, so you have a warp to any locaton and anything is a five minute walk. Which is all we're asking for with BCNMs, except for BCNMonry it's taboo?

Seriously. We don't need teleports to every little thing in the game. There's more than enough ways to get around as it is. IMO if smelling the roses as you run by isn't appealing to you anymore, then you're playing the wrong game.
As I said before, we may as well not have all of these hundreds of areas if we never have to pass through them.
People aren't asking for a "5 minute walk." They're asking to be teleported straight to the BC.Which is all we're asking for with BCNMs, except for BCNMonry it's taboo?
And as far as FFXIV, the difference there is you can teleport to any aetheryte crystal AT ANY TIME except when you have enmity on something. you don't talk to an NPC to do it, it's as if every job has teleport spells. Still, you have to do a little walking to get to places. Nothing can teleport you to the precise spot of a quest or battle.

And when exiting the BCNM it's another 5-15 minutes unless you feel like wasting a Nexus Cape.
I don't know of any BC area where it takes more than 5 minutes to circle around to re-enter (but really, the BC areas should at least have a device that takes you back to the entrance or a path, to facilitate repeated attempts... that I don't think takes anything too far.)
In general, one-way paths stink.

Giddeus was brought up, where it puts you in Sarutabaruta when you exit the BCNM area. Like I said earlier, when we do KS99's, we make sure a BLM stays behind to escape, which puts you at the Giddeus entrance again. Without that, it would take a bit longer than 5 minutes. An option to be taken to the entry point after the BCNM is completed would be nice, but I still don't think direct warps to the arena's are needed.

Is this thread about walking in and out of the BC? I thought it was about getting there. At any rate, Smelling the flowers is fine when they are fresh and fragrant, and its your day off. The flowers were talking about are dungeons that we have been through a million times, and they haven't grown anything new. You can walk to work if you want. I prefer the freeway.
If it's your opinion that people should walk everywhere, you are free to do it. There are no mandatory warp NPC's that I am aware of. If you think that everyone should have to walk just because you like to smell the flowers, well...
Wouldn't it be easier to just take a screen shot that you could look at any time? The rest of us wanna fight monsters.
