    I've kicked healers and tanks before and believe me, they come within a reasonable time depending on which dungeon. Low roulette, no, anything high and above, you'll get a replacement soon enough. However, if you don't do your job intentionally (which means healing on healer, tanking on tank and dpsing on dps) you'll be kicked due to "difference of play style" and I'll keep kicking you if you come back because you're trolling.

    Also, not wiping is rather difficult if you have a horde of enemies and you let your tank die. Though, because you've described a scenario that is so consciously and cautiously allowing someone to die, I don't expect you to understand any manner of actual reason. Also, smooth runs means no deaths or wipes. Smooth with deaths isn't smooth.

    Yes, your methods which include basically going afk, which is a kickable offense. Your methods also include MPK by knowingly letting your tank pull and knowing you aren't going to heal him. Save yourself the headache and either leave the dungeon and not afk and as with the tank, either kick him or leave. No need to be borderline sadistic and let them die.

    Did I ever say it was easy? I have to balance heals and DPS. dance that cleric stance, to get it just right. And it is a skill I learned specifically to counter the speed runners.

    The run was going to be a wipe, so not wiping makes is smoother already. 1 death of the silent speed runner is price to pay for a smooth run is fair price to pay I'd say.

    Really now you are really grasping at straws. I never go AFK. BTW the method is not sadistic, letting the silent speed runner run roughshod over everyone is abusing everyone and someone has to stop the bully. Their death is not MPK, it is their own doing. He'd got the regen and medica2, and E4E and if he can't handle it then he should pull smaller because the silent speed runner did not communicate properly to start they reap what they've sown.

    As DPS you can withhold DPS and the speed run will come to screeching halt, it is not going to be much of speed run when there is only 1/2 the DPS or less
    Saying that there is only 1 DPS or less means that you've gone AFk and at best, AFK auto-attack for one mob. Not grasping at straws, just calling out your harassing behavior for what it is.

    It is not AFK to busy typing, "please slow down" and "stop cussing at me" or "I'm going to report you to the GM for harassment for wiping the party with pulls that are too big" when I am dead on the ground with everyone else because of the ill-advised pull. And if the pulled everything before all my cool downs are ready I can't even auto-attack. And I will only withold DPS when some one else has objected to the speed run, be it healer, dps or tank. I don't just disrupt speed run for giggles, only when another player does not want it or can not do the speed run so it will be a 2-2 split at least.

    The role of the healer is to keep the party alive. If the speed run requires a sacrifice then it will be the speed runner. I don't kill tanks 99.9% of the time, but I have a method that can do that 99.9% of the when it is needed to stop the silent speed running tank.

    If they don't talk to me and I am DPS and go off to the races, good luck to them. I'll DPS when I feel like it or DPS at whatever speed I like. I am not there to make the run impossible, I want to run the stuff and get it done too. They are in agreement already, I can see that, why would I need to make trouble, this when I can relax and take it at leisurely pace and be carefree DPS. I am happy to opportunistic and take advantage of their efforts. I actually prefer this scenario the best, because I don't need to worry about jack, but you can't expect me to put out my best DPS that I'd use for T12 or something because I am just my own loose cannon and they got everything covered anyways, and I am NOT obligated to help them get the world record speed run time.

    Always with the name calling. In any case I've never said I was special, I am just providing useful tips for people to slow down a speed run that was just suddenly foisted upon them. It is not monstrous to help people not get bullied by the speed runners.
