1) Healer is undergeared and being cocky. (Happens every week at least once and DPS don't take time to look at the healer gear when they don't realize the healer is struggling).
2) DPS are undergeared, adds are dying to slow for me to have enough cooldowns for another big pull cause I have to use extra ones because the previous pull didn't die fast enough.
3) I have no cooldowns available. Usually because a healer decided to DPS too much instead of heal and I have to burn extra cooldowns. Im not going to pull a large mob with 0 cooldowns, sorry.
Yes I'm not talking about these scenarios. You probably shouldn't pull more here I agree (except point 3 maybe, depending on the instance difficulty and gear)

That is your responibility at that point. Don't ASSUME everything. I have had enough dungeon cocky players that turned around and bit the dust and then blame the tank for getting overzelous. If you don't like the tempo of the tank then, tank yourself. Easy as that. This isn't just a "oh you hurt my feelings" there is also a "No you are just being straight up ingorant" as well.
I agree that those extra mobs I pull will be my responsibilty and I will bring the mobs to you so you'll take aggro no matter what during your AoE rotation. If it leads to deaths, then by all means complain and get upset and kick me.

Like I've said before, healers pulling ahead of tank usually happens in faceroll content where tanks are redundant anyway.
