Having multiple port points really empowers the use of personal plots (especially with the gate system). The issue is you want to port to the village center fairly often do you not? I'd argue instead:

Village port functions only if your hearthfire is covered by that village claim.

No... Bloody walk already.

And porting back to the Village Claim is still ridiculous, do we recall the frankly expansive sizes of village claims back in World 7? This quickly becomes a long and frankly ridiculous way around the porting thing.

We need less porting, not more.
jorb: I don't want *your* money. You are rude and boring. Go away.
Sevenless: We already know real life has some pretty shitty game mechanics, it's why we're here instead.
Avu: The end is near it has finally come to pass: I agree with Lunarius...
Shubla: There are also other reasons to play this game than to maximize your stat gain.

You're arguing a point that doesn't really matter if it were a system that only worked within a certain range of your idol. And lol at people coming to the conclusion that a village would even be able to maintain such vast expanses of authority forever, did you forget about Kingdoms already? You're talking about a mechanic that could easily change in the next month.

My suggestion bypasses that issue entirely. And I think the majority of the population supports at least the ability to teleport home. Teleporting to the idol or to a hearthfire doesn't really change the fact that the mechanic exists in the first place.

And what's the range? You pick one number, larger village pick another, brodgar say they need twice more. With small number this feature will be pointless, with large - exploitable. Authoritity was never a problem and Kingdoms is nothing but nothing right now.

meh, not really, but I'll leave it to you to figure out should the occasion ever arise, your expertise in the area of exploits far surpasses my own and most on this forum I'm sure.

It's a real drag people go and point out reasons to NOT have fast travel. Give us our HS spawning and village idol travel back!!!
