I am just about to enter the legendary labyrinth. Legend has it that half cow half boys roam the dark passages. They should be called cowboys, but they have the merciless titles of minotaur. The fear and excitement is amazing!
THEN, just as I enter the sigil-

Ok most of you pirates should see where I am going here... I kind of find porting to these places a bit of a nuisance. It it a total waste of my time and I consider it trash travelling all the way so that my non-member friends can port and get their only access to what they consider treasure. Yes, its nice and I love to be nice, but not when it becomes a nuisance all the time.

You know those portal gates between worlds? There should be portal gates for passage ways too. Since they are already a free gold source for non-paying players, I think they should get free access to it (they can pay ingame not real money).

P.S: I know some people may think the introduction of Mark and Recall is perfect for this, but consider the following. Yes you can port back to where you where (except in a fight zone), but it would still take time to get to the passage way, so would you like that? What if you're in a dungeon? The ultimate solution in my mind is that F2P players should get thier own independent access into passageways, and I see extra portal zones as my conclusion. That way me, Mack, David and Elizabeth will all be happy.

But they do have access. They just have to travel by ship. The stormgates are not that long to travel through. They are asking you to port there using your gold so they don't have to travel a bit? Sounds like they may be not thinking of you enough and taking a bit advantage.
