DPS who pull mobs

[Vahlnir]

It very much is, and most dungeons have players picking their noses during pulls. People don't realize just how fast a dungeon can be until they themselves perform great and get put in a group that performs just as good. If a dungeon can be done in 10 minutes, why make it 18?

I'm all for fast, smooth dungeon runs. However, I would rather have a group that is slow and steady but ultimately finishes the race instead of a group that tries to go faster than they are capable of and results in multiple wipes, which wastes more time than the tank pulling slower. At the end of the day, only the healer and/or tank know their own capabilities. It is not my or anyone else's place to force them to go faster. They could be confronted about it, which they would be free to comply or not comply. Then it becomes a choice of either sucking it up, leaving or kicking the "problem" members. The last 2 could waste even more time if a disagreement is had. Sure, they could be kicked, but that's a bit of a jerk move...and also wastes more time than needed. In an attempt to get a faster tank, they most likely wasted at least 1-2 minutes trying to replace them, and that's after trying to get them to go faster which probably took a minute or two to sort out. So...that 5 minutes extra (seriously, it rarely takes longer than that with a slow tank) just turned into 6-7, if not more.
