Bell Menus, please remove them!!!!

<span style="font-size: x-small;font-family: tahoma,arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">I have played since launch, back when you had to do the boat rides to gain access to the next tiers.You no longer have to do the boat rides, they are optional now, but for those of us who did them they leave a lasting problem that is nothing but an unneeded hassle.I am a quest-o-holic but I will not touch those boat rides for anything unless this changes, and not to mention the endless daily hassle of these bells for my oldest characters that have done the boat rides because they were mandatory at the time.<img src="http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b359/Madmoxi/EQ2/Old%20School/ELBell.jpg" alt="" border="0" /> <img src="http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b359/Madmoxi/EQ2/Old%20School/EverfrostBell.jpg" alt="" border="0" /><img src="http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b359/Madmoxi/EQ2/Old%20School/ZekBell.jpg" alt="" border="0" /> <img src="http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b359/Madmoxi/EQ2/Old%20School/FeerrottBell.jpg" alt="" border="0" />Instead of simply being able to click or use the default action key on the bells I am always given a menu to choose the zone or the boat ride, like I want to do that ever again once I have finished it. Even if for some strange reason I wanted to go back on the boat couldn't it be a RIGHT CLICK MENU OPTION on the bell instead of making me choose the zone each and every single time I want to zone?Don't get me wrong, I understand why the choice is there, but couldn't it be a right click option if you have finished the quest? Or even if you haven't? Just give me back the ability to use the default action to zone like everyone else who hasn't done the access quests please! I am SOOO tired of having to click on this menu that I could scream.For anyone who hasn't done the access quest, I recommend that you don't do them unless you want to have your bell travel messed up forever.Please fix =)</span>

<p>You see, that's just the thing. Anyone who hasn't completed the access quests to these zones naturally zone over without a menu popping up.</p><p>However, you and I have completed these access quests, and thus these zones will *ALWAYS* be an option for us to choose. I don't think they can remove them unless they remove the zones from the game.</p><p>I do agree though. it would be nice to remove them, or alter them so we can right click and choose if we want the boat ride or not.</p>

[SilkenKidden]

<p>Yes.  Please fix this.  I did the Fanged Sea thing just to get rid of it, but it didn't go away.  I still get the choice every time I ring that bell.  </p><p>Please let us delete these quests. </p><p>I'd also like to be able to delete the Everling quests.   Why are some of these made non-delete?  </p>

They can make it a right-click option for those instanced boat zones and make the default left-click to zone over to the regular zone....The question is, will they?

[Snowdonia]

Gimme a toggle button! >.<

Don't remove the quests but if it is a right click option then that is fine with me.

Which is what I did on my Illusionist for LS, and EF as those boat rides where a major PITA.

[Liyle]

I suspect the option remains so that people who have completed the quest can still go to help friends who have not, but why can't those people be the ones to "lead the party" into the special zones? If these things have to stay in game, at least make another bell specifically for questing instead of having outdated and invasive quest options interrupt game flow for the next 50+ levels.<u><b>And please let us delete Fanged Sea!!!</b></u>

Personally I agree with you, if it does not take that much coding make it a Right Click menu, just like the SS carpets.

I did the quest because I went there and couldn't get in and someone told me I had to follow such and such quest lines. Though I still think the Fanged Sea quest should be deletable from my quest journal grrrr.

(( I love the boat instances, they are neat. I think a solution that will make everyone happy is this:double click a bell to warp to that continent (no boat, etc)right click a bell to bring up a destination box, similar to how sinking sands carpet works. Double clicking the carpet sends you to Maj Dul directly *nods*
