So I have finished the whole story with my main char, including living world, but on my alt, I dont want to do any of the story. When I click “Quit This Episode” it apears to work, and its all good, until I change map, or relog, then it is there again. ITs so annoying to have to look at this green thing all the time. is it a bug? a known bug? is there a workaround this thing (except doing the whole story)? did Anet addressed the issue?

It’s not a bug, but WAI. The only way to remove Story from the UI is to complete it.

Good luck.

What is WAI? in this is such a shame, why not let players choose? especially if they already completed the story…

The reason given was because of people who are too “smart” for their own good. They turn it off then get all flustered about how to re-enable it.

This is like the worst reason… if you are too dumb to turn it on, you will be too dumb to turn it off. and people can always help those people….

My sentiments are similar to yours but I have also encountered the type of people the devs were concerned about so it’s not exactly unfounded either. :/

Yeah, this stuff doesn’t come out of nowhere, it literally comes from asking the support people “what are the most common problems you encounter”, and then working to solve them.

They don’t write “caution: don’t microwave pets” on things because it seemed like a good idea. They write it there because they need to.

The best one has to be a bag of mixed nuts with “warning: contains nuts”.

Second best: “Gluten free” water -_-

Well, the first is most likely because labelling things with nuts is good, so someone wrote a careless law requiring “any food with nuts” to have a label … but OTOH, you read enough stories about someone shocked to learn that a peanut butter cookie contains nuts ….

The second is just an advertising trick though: watch out any time you see something like that which seems slightly odd. It’s probably trying to cast shade on the other bottled water by saying something true about them all … but make people wonder if maybe there is something less awesome about the next bottle along that doesn’t say it!

Anyway, we have drifted from the point here: most of these seemingly obvious things that are way too hand-holdy are actually there because they do help out new players, people who don’t have the background in MMOs that we do, etc.
