New Option - Skip Intro Cinematics (Discussion)

Dear my fellow players,

I do not think I'm the only one who gets annoyed by the repetitive cinematic in Heroes' Ascent(HA) and Alliance Battles (AB). Surely, there are people out there who like to watch these again and again but I believe that it would be favorable for the majority of the players in HA and AB if Anet would integrate the option "to AUTOMATICALLY SKIP INTRODUCTION CINEMATIC IN PVP AREAS." Of course,clicking the "skip" button has somewhat became second nature to most players in HA and AB and this shows that short introduction scenes are negligible and unnecessary. Agreed?

I only propose this option in PvP Areas since it does not require the entire party to click skip in order to skip a cinematic. Since these introduction scenes serve no purposes in HA and AB then they should not exist at all. Come to think about this matter, Anet did not make introduction scenes to the newly added maps, Fetid River and Antechamber. Why did they not make movie scenes for these maps? Because it has nothing to do with the main story line of Guild Wars. If most players are going to click the "skip" button every time they go in a match, then that is a sign that it is irrelevant and it should be removed. So please, do not call me lazy, I know it takes little effort to click skip (I have been clicking the skip button for the past 3 years) but these scenes have became an annoyance overtime. Plus, what is the harm in removing these scenes? or add an option to skip them automatically?

I have asked this question on 2 other forums already, and here are the results of the poll if you want to know:

Do you skip the short introduction scenes in HA and/or AB?
