I'm a mage and don't need them--I need to go 5 minutes without being asked for a port and getting told I am the devil for not leaving my 40 min heroic queue to port them. Seriously, give me some peace and just put these back in. People will still use Org and SW for the Cata portals and dailies.

That is not the vision we really have for the game. We want travel to mean something. You might have been used to facerolling portals in Wrath, but we are trying to get back some of the traditional challenge vanilla WoW used to have. Create a mage at your own risk.

I've prettymuch stopped playing my mage for this reason. Can't have a moments peace anymore due to people asking for ports if I'm in a city longer than 5 seconds with him.

Exactly. Also, obligatory "if you don't love porting everyone around or getting yelled at you need to L2P and you are a fail player". I remember when the word "vision" became a mantra for a game long ago and how the more they said it the faster their game died. *cough*EQ*cough* Those who do not learn from history are doomed to repeat it. --Sly

This brings back joyful/painful memories in DAOC when you played a class that could rez people, you always went /anon.
"Hi, could you please run halfway across the zone to rez my group at the skelly brige?"
Of course in that game, it had community so you didnt mind helping a friend out. But sometimes it was just a pain.

That's because Wyrmrest is a good RP Realm, and good RPers know that their character's aren't telepathic (unless you're a shadow priest, maybe) and so whispers would be breaking character.

It's simple..
100g to leave your queue, and port someone....up front, cash.

I'd like to see the portals back but it's getting better. It was really annoying at first but when I saw belt buckles going for 500+g in AH, I reconsidered some.

Wheres your sense of capitalism? Im thinking of lvling my Mage just so I can charge 100g a pop. Sounds like a great way to ring up some gold for the new year.

It's almost 2011. And WoW is a theme park, not a sandbox. Leave them 2004-ish ideas where they belong, with EQ1 and vanilla WoW. IMO

QFT If you're a mage, you own the transportation market. Have some fun with it, make some gold. I've received as much as 150g for a port so far

Strongly disagree. Developers spend literally millions of dollars to develop and create this virtual world we play in. Why then would they put in portals just so you can skip over all of it? There is no place in the game world you can't get to in less than 10 minutes. I continue to struggle to understand why people stand around asking for ports to places they could be at in less time and for free.
