Being Forced Off Mounts Is Obnoxious

No, thank you - its bad enough to have people afk on their mounts next to a quest-NPC... I'd rather not have those covered in Behemoths, Chocobos and giant dragons and not being able to see who I'm talking to at all...

Problem is, players can still park on top of an NPC without talking to it. One solution might be to make any player talking to an NPC remain mounted, but disappear from the view of all other players. I'd also apply this to Summoning Bells, which I iften find very hard to click when crowded.

Agreed, that is a problem (even though you can still target the NPC by some button-combo I forgot...), but saying "Well, its still happening, so why not make it worse?" just doesnt sound like a great argument to me... just because you can still have people on mounts next to the NPC doesnt mean they cant take meassures to reduce this number as much as possible, for example by dismounting you.
