I don't agree with any of this. Tanks should always pull first and people shouldn't try to "help" by pulling things. Depending on the tank, they may not get hate off you right away. People who do this take unnecessary damage or possibly die and that's just adding more to the healer's plate, followed by drama because "the healer wasn't doing their job in healing" or how the tank "can't tank properly." I have endured many speed runs that botched horribly because of this, adding more time to something that was supposed to be "fast".

You want to know why people adapt to the "you pull it, you tank it" mindset? Because anyone who keeps pulling before the tank is impatient and these are likely the same people who run off before the healer can use Protect on everyone. If someone in my party keeps making the same rookie mistakes over over because they wanted to "help the tank" or just can't wait 5 seconds for a buff, then they're likely not going to be a good team player to begin with and I shouldn't wipe with them because of it. No one person can set the pace, but it is not selfish to ask people to let the tank do their job so that everyone else can stay alive.

People talk about tanks having a huge "memememe" ego trip (and some do have it), but healers and DPS can be just as selfish with their unnecessary pulling just because they want to finish the run 4 minute sooner. Not everyone in DF plays the same.
