Bulletin Board Daily Quests

Could you PLEASE change the daily quests currently given out via bulletin boards and give them to the NPC's that receive the quests, like the dailies in the newer zones?

It's kind of moronic having to get the quest from the board, run to the NPC, then run back to the board to get the quest again.

i do agree and not at the same time. Its a good idea because i have alt who at low lvl annoys me with those far off quests,


but at same time, please don't forget the true meaning of quests.
Quests are assigned tasks that your character must overcome and will receive a nice reward in the end of the journey, think about it, your character found out on the bulletin board that some guy is willing to pay a nice reward if someone kills 10 boars for him, your character sets out to do it in hopes for the reward, thats the whole point behind questing, story, they are not those thing that were made for you to quickly do 10/day and be done just because you can, even though thats exactley what most people see them as. And for that reason, your request will not be accepted.

Then why did the developers basically drop the bulletin board daily quest system in all of the newer zones? There are no bulletin boards in Thunderhoof Hills, Southern & Northern Janost Forest, Limo Desert, Land Of Malevolence, Coast Of Opportunity, Xaviera, etc....

In those zones all of the quest givers are also the quest receivers. All you have to do is check the map and see who has a blue !. Just makes more sense to do it that way.

One example of a bulletin board daily quest that's a royal pain in the backside is the Harpy Claw daily in Dust Devil Canyon. The bulletin board is located in Obsidian Stronghold, in the south west corner of the zone, but the quest receiver is in the northern part of the map. I did that quest ONCE, then gave it up since it took too much time just to turn in one daily.

The bulletin board system is like being told you can only buy items from a store one at a time. You run out into the store, grab your item, take it the the cash register to pay for it, then you have to run out into the store for your next item....
That's just totally silly.....

yup that quest is a pain, but i guess bulletin boards were done in older maps for purpose of fun and gameplay and definition of quest i gave, newer maps the devs were probably seeing that its annoying so didnt add it to them.

didnt try to make you see a bad reply comment, just tried to be that one person that sees a thread that will not be answered by any staff so i answered it for them, kinda

usually i avoid dailies as such so idk what pain they cause sorry
