If you enjoy running for sake of running nobody forces you to use teleports. Really.
Forcing players to do something they do not enjoy is straght way to make your game fail.
Everyone should have choice of what they want to do. I want to use teleports. You want to run. Why you would like to take out teleport for.
I want to take possibilty of running around zones from you!.
Just because we want anima removed doesn't mean that there would not be some way of teleporting. There are items that teleport in FFXI as well as a certain class. The problem with Anima is that it is free and replenishes itself. There is no drawback to teleporting anywhere. When the teleport has a cost, players need to evaluate convenience vs. cost. This evaluation leads to people travelling relatively close distances instead of just popping the ever-replenishing anima.
