    The vast, VAST majority of players want to get the dungeon done with as quickly as possible. They've already run the dungeon countless times, and the only reason they are in there at all is to scoop up some more Tomestones. The less time that this takes, the better. Any responsible tank who is confident in her abilities will speed run. As someone with a minority opinion, your best bet for taking the dungeon at a leisurely pace is to do it with friends who are willing to slow down to your pace. When partying with randoms, be prepared to go with the majority.

    The first time I run a dungeon, it's always with friends, so we can take it easy, experiment with difficult pulls, and so on - all without any pressure.

    ^ This. I got some excellent Goldsmithing desynthing skill back in the Mythflox days thanks to everyone skipping the chests with accessories in them. After the run, I'd return to the start of the dungeon and pick up the skipped chests we left behind. Two guaranteed accessories, every time!

    New dungeons are even better, as there are virtually no skippable mobs. Just about every chest is free and clear, once the dungeon is done.
