Seriously now: How many of you just happened to waltz into delkfutt's tower and found out that the CoP storyline started there? Personally, the moment I logged on with CoP, my LS mates told me to go to delkfutt's for a cool cutscene. The fact that I was told to go there didn't remove any bit of excitement or adventure from the CS though.

Secret quests are pointless when you're playing an MMO in which there's an online community that has access to the whole amount of knowledge the playerbase has about the game. I really don't see the point of having secret stuff that you won't know about unless someone happens to stumble upon it; if the quest is worthwhile, as soon as someone knows about it they're going to tell you whether you want them to or not. If the quest is not worthwhile, then why bother making it secret?
