It gets rather annoying if, say, the healer requests slow pulls because they are not comfortable with dealing with pulling more than 1 mob just yet (let's say these are HW pre-Vault dungeons) and the tank obliges them and this agreement was said in party chat at the start of the dungeon, and some DPS decide that's not good enough and they start pulling for the tank. That is incredibly annoying, especially in situations where the healer simply hasn't gotten comfortable enough to heal like that.

I have some unwritten rules:

1. Always say hello or hi when I first zone in. Courtesy makes for pleasant runs. :)
2. The tank gets heals first, me next, then damage dealers. Standard triage stuff.
3. Always cast Repose on multi-mob pulls if the tank doesn't pick up the healer or ranged damage dealer mobs. I catch flack for this sometimes but I rather spend a few moments cleaning up the cced afterwards than allow casters and healers to get off their spells willy-nilly. I'm an old-school WoW player. I have crowd control spells for a reason.
4. Always say goodbye.

Greet people mining in the same spot that I am.

No matter what role you queued as, you are dps.

Show some manners. Greet your party when entering a duty.

If you dont greet your party members when entering a duty, im going to assume youre a bot. And will disregard any of your wishes and complaints.
