The Hunt Public Shaming Needs to end

[ColeSlawter]

When you pull before the called time, it is as obvious an early pull as night is from day.

This mentality of yours is the problem. Who made you the one in charge of declaring when a open world mob can be killed?

Let's just assume for a second that you have a hunt LS and I wanted to join your hunt LS. You could have rules for joining which state that I may not pull before the officially declared time and I am not allowed to be the time caller without being promoted to official time caller first. If I agree to your rule, then I get the benefit of every time the LS learns the position of a hunt then I will be notified and nobody else in this same hunt LS will pull before the declared time. This is all fine and dandy in the scope of the LS or even possibly group of hunt LS'.

The problem is that I did not join your hunt LS. Additionally, simply buying the game from SE and having an agreement with them for service did not also bind me to your hunt LS rules. If I don't agree with your rules then I will not join your hunt LS, doesn't mean I have to cancel my sub or move elsewhere. You do not have that authority to declare.

This is similar to joining a PF group vs joining a DF group.

What you are suggesting is the same as saying that you can join the DF as a tank and as soon as the dungeon starts declaring that the healer gear is yours if it drops. It was not agreed upon prior to the dungeon entry so you have no grounds for making such a demand on the other players.

However, if you start a PF group and declare before entry that the healer gear is yours then people have the option to either join or not join. This is like your hunt LS, you make the rules for your group and you enforce them amongst yourselves. You have no room to make demands on me to not pull whenever I want if I have not agreed to your rules.
