    Actually a speed runner is putting a group at a much higher risk leading to a potential wipe, it does not matter if they intentionally planned to wipe the group or not, the consequences of their actions puts the group at a much higher risk. This is not to say I think people should go AFK to spite others but a speed runner should ask permission first in DF.

    I have no problem with people speed running in general, especially when they use the better tool for it which is PF not DF however speed runners should get permission and agreement from the group in DF as common courtesy before they run off. No-one agreed to speed run content or skip cutscenes etc prior to starting a run in DF but in PF they do via your listed requirements. The default for DF should be normal pace+cutscenes, the normal for PF is whatever you want listed in the party finder.

    So get peoples consent before speed run in DF, it takes you like half a second to ask if they okay with doing a speed run or ask if they mind skipping cutscenes to speed the run up...while the party members from across different worlds who ended up in that DF run should not have to ask you to not speed run it or ask you to allow them to watch cutscenes. So if intend to speed run in DF, when enter just say "Do you mind if we speed run?", simple, easy and quick to do while in PF you do not need to do so because you would of already informed people prior to them joining you that you are farming it or speed running it.
