Pleas Allow Skipping of the Opening Sequences

Due to world restrictions, my friends and I have had to re-start on different servers 3 times already. That's not even counting the times from beta, or the "I don't like my name as much as I thought.." characters.

The opening sequences are amazing, but they start to lose their luster after the first few times--is there a reason they can't be skipped?

I think the opening sequence "should" only be able to be skipped if you have created and played a character before on one of the servers

That would be nice, but I doubt they will allow it simply because your choice when asked why you traveling to whichever city, determines which ring you are awarded after the cutscene.
