I need to vent (VERY long)

I am not saying that leves should not be received in one location but it be active upon receipt. Its funny that everyone is saying that they don't want to be hassled with going to each crystal to get a quest when currently thats how the game is technically setup. You have to activate the quest at the crystal and it works out to be the same. Why is it so hard to grasp the concept of getting the leves in one location and simply executing it whenever.

Define "activate on receipt", because if you mean what I think you mean, then it's a horrible idea because you would then have no way to efficiently manage leve-linking in party.

also,

Why is it silly to remove the cost of teleporting? It does not negate the need to traverse the massive terrain in anyway. The current system DOES NOT allow you to teleport to any location on the map so why are you reacting as if it does?

while it doesn't allow you to teleport to every location on the map, it does allow you to teleport to almost every meaningful location on the map. One would seldom ever have to travel far on foot outside of gathering if teleportation is free.
