right and like i said, Called, loaded into the zone, waiting almost a minute on the dot and it got pulled. public shaming.Ideally, an "early pull" equals to pulling in a shorter time frame than it'd take for a player, from the first moment the mark is found/shouted, to teleport, load in the area, and run (on mount) to the spot. If you pull in a time span shorter than that amount, to me it's early pulling. If you pull at a longer time than that, then it's fair and other people were just too slow/have connection issues. And I say this as a person who misses marks 90% of times during NA log in peaks because of my 40seconds loading time after teleport, so I know when it's my fault and when it's just people being dicks.
My main point is, nothing changes by shouting someones name like that
It can get you blacklisted from Hunting LS which on some servers is kinda a big deal if you want to do any hunting.

not everyone loads in 2 seconds, especially when half the fucking server is in one area
"Early pulling" doesn't exist. People can pull whenever they feel like. If you aren't there, well, sorry to say, too bad. If I see a hunt with my friends, I'll pulling the thing. I'm not waiting for half the server to show up just for me to get a bronze if I'm lucky. This same crap happened with Dark Devices. People would *gasp* complete the FATE and get called out for it. If I'm there with a party (or solo, depending on the mark), I'm pulling. Noone is under ANY obligation to wait.
If my party is there is not an "early pull". Ppl can whine all they want about early pull but they are just late.
I love the official forums, they tell you to use the search for thread about what you wanted to talk but when you use it they judge for necro a thread.
Hunts anger and frustrate me due to how the mechanics operate. So... I just don't do them. I'll live without carbons from hunts lol really. People who force themselves to do things that stress them out and anger them need to take a chill and realize they are playing a game and games should be played to have fun. FFXIV offers a lot of content so choose what is fun and ignore the unfun stuff.

SE themselves said Early pulling isn't a thing. If you are there and can take the mark, do it. Spamming the shout channel calling the team that pulled it all kinds of names is supposed to be considerate? HA! I never said anything about hunting solo (unless it's a B rank which are "supposed" to be solo). I was talking about me and my friends there at a mark ready to fight. If I claim that mob, yes, I'm more entitled to it than you. You wanna be entitled to the mob, then pull it. What makes you so special? Why do I have to wait for everyone and their mothers to get there when my team and I are ready to go? There is no rule that says I have to wait for 90% of the server to show up. Sorry.
I agree with you. I think the hunts are so silly and people always say it's an early pull. I think early pull means "I wasn't there in time so it was early" but if half the server is there then maybe that player should consider joining other linkshells that updates hunts announcements quicker.

ive seen plenty of "hunt dead" not even 30 seconds after the very first shout/lsI agree with you. I think the hunts are so silly and people always say it's an early pull.
