He sure had that typed fast for someone you're assuming to be without a keyboard O.o. He literally had it typed as I was coming out of the skipped cutscene blackscreen. And is it really THAT bad adding "please" to the sentence? I used to suffer typing on PS3, he had plenty of time to type it out with please added, trust me. Especially while the healer was buffing everyone.

It's trendy to blame me for having a bad reaction to immediate demands and hostility though, and to make judgements of my character and assumptions about me, that much is clear.

And as I quoted myself above, I offered him a compromise and was going to go back for his mobs if he treated me nicely. He shot it down and insulted me, and made more demands and threats.

What was I supposed to do, give him what he wanted and just stay quiet? Give up the rights of myself and my friend to suit theirs, when tanks have the inherent, implied rights of pulling, even when he refuses to compromise and increase the speed of killing the extra mobs?

I'm sorry, but if defending myself from abuse and having a bad reaction to abuse makes me a jerk, I'll gladly embrace my jerkness. If choosing to be the one to take charge in a tie as the most suited role to take charge for mob pulling makes me a jerk, I'll embrace it. I took the high road when there was a high road that wasn't blocked off. After that, I took the higher road still.
I don't get why I'm getting quoted/responded to again, but I am now starting to believe that you're embellsing a few bits of the story. From your original OP:

Immediately upon the dungeon starting, I get this from a dps:

Being the rebel I am, and the fact that my friend just needed the dungeon done asap (and I'm the tank, so obviously the game is designed for me to lead the pace of the dungeon), and the fact that he demanded I bow to his whims rather than ask me to, I pulled the first room into the crystal buff. The WHM, who is the other dps' friend, is not holying. The other dps, who is a BRD, is not aoeing.
So as soon as the dungeon started, you get the request/demand, and you right away decide to be a "rebel" and make a gigantic pull to screw with them. There were no attacks, threats or abuse before this point, it's no wonder he may have had choice words to say to you (if in fact he did). You guys deserved each other it seems.

At this point for me, pics or it didn't happen
