I just want a make a small point in this thread. I do not really care about teleports, this is just a small point about a specific argument that people use ALL the time when someone asks for a change, that boggles my mind.

This whole "You don't have to use it if you don't want to."
This, right here, is a completely stupid and is the epitome of a argument that is not well thought out in any way whatsoever. Simply put, as gamers, no as Human beings, we always always will take the most efficient way possible. This is especially true for MMO games. For example, if we were to introduce a instant level 50 button, it doesn't matter if it's a choice or not, 99% of the population of the game would use it. Why? Because an efficient way exists and because of that, people will use it.

For example, if I was to come to you and tell you that I want a service that I pay £5 for and get an instant lvl 50, with full ilvl 100 gear, you would disagree. You'd bring up a list of reasons of why you don't want it, and that it'd ruin the game, you'd skip content. Yet I would argue that "The content is still there if you want to do that. You don't have to use the service, it's a choice." Now let's imagine that this service was implemented. What would happen? Most of the population would use it. If you'd use it isn't the problem. The point is, most people simply would.

See how stupid that argument is now? The argument simply does not work and should not be used. If you have an argument against a change, formulate one without clutching for stupidity.

This argument shows it doesn't work, with flying mounts in WoW an the changes they will be implementing in the beginning of WoD. Blizzard don't want people to skip content with flying mounts and so people are not allowed the use of flying mounts in the new zone for the first patch. Yet people came and complained saying "If you don't want to use them, don't. I do." But if they WERE allowed, everyone would simply use them for the convenience of it, regardless of the effect on the game.
