    If your "communication" requires killing potentially three party members intentionally because of one person, you have poor communication skills.

    If you hate it so much, finish the pull, by tanking it, like you're meant to, and then speak your issue. Even if my personal opinion is a tank that doesn't pull big isn't even a tank, you going "I really don't feel comfortable with big pulls yet, please slow down" will 99% of the time win you the favor of someone in the party and they will kick the person.

    I absolutely hate this stupid idea of justifying tanks killing party members, or healers killing party members, or dps killing party members, anyone doing it. One tank I very much recall decided to do that very thing, drop stance to make me die to mobs, not even because I pulled, but because... Get this... I COMPLIMENTED HIM. We had trouble with a pull, where he didn't use cooldowns, and I asked him to use them earlier so they can mitigate more, and when he did I complimented him to enforce the "Good job" vibes that'd give, and he responded by intentionally dropping stance for next pull so I'd get aggro and die, even putting it back up the second I went down to grab them back before it could kill anything else. I think we can all agree that isn't cool, right? But that's what "Tanks are the leaders" mentally does. Even compliments hurt their ego.

    Dang guys, watch out, it was just a prank. I'm sure my DF experiences are also all just pranks, bro. Man, got me good, 10/10 prank. Would prank again.
