As the title states, those annoying series of questions has to go. Being asked three to four times "Do you want to enter the town?" gets damned annoying. This has been noticed by others as well.

This is to keep people from charging into a town before there group is ready. I know that after missions there is a window that allows you to get all of your stuff that dropped that you have not picked up yet. In the normal quests there is not that function I think so do you really want a group member to just blindly stumble along before you pick up that gold sword?

Nothing is stopping that from happening even now.

Only one confirmation is neccessary.

Wanna go in? - Yup
Are you sure? - Err.. yeah.
Right, on we go.

Once people realise there are going to be 3 or 4, they just tune out and get clicking. You only need one to let people know this isn't simply the end of a quest, but a teleportation as well. More confirmations make no difference.

Friendly bump, because being asked four questions to enter towns is three too many.

Especially when you are with henchies. You sure? You sure your team is sure? D'uh.

Irritating in the extreme, especially when you are rolling with hench.

"You are about to enter a Town. Make sure you are ready." Yes Im ready.
"Let's Go."

Should be sufficient

If anything when with henchies it shouldn't ask more than once.

Yeah, that's indeed irritating - 2 clicks would be fine, just to make sure (select the primary quest, then ask if you're sure, and go).

Talking about asking confirmation, I think they should add that for when you pick your secondary.

Well provided ANET has nothing better to do that is.

It's a huge pain in the ass, especially when you're with the retarded AI henchies or even just yourself. If there's a problem with entering a town before someone's picked up their loot then couldn't they just add the same function they have at the end of missions? The only thing I can see wrong with that is if there's a rare drop that's not been noticed and is now available to everyone which hasn't been picked up. Even so, that shouldn't happen often with the text in gold that also tells you it's rare.

Are you sure you want to remove those questions?
Really sure?
You realize that if they're removed you wont be asked more than once?
Do you really want to do this?

Hell yes.

A chance is enough. Being asked the same 3 times is too much. XD.

At first it kinda irritatied me, but I understand why it is there. I mean, it may be frustrating (especially with H/H), but it is not at all game breaking. Is it really that frustrating/time consuming to just have to click the "yes" option 3 times?

While I agree this is annoying, I doubt they'll remove it. And because of that, I'd much rather they spent their time and money on getting Guild Wars 2 launched. There are other issues in the current game that need to be fixed (Xunlai points) far more, but if they were to get time and it won't take away from Guild Wars 2 development, I'll /sign.
