Alliance Raids and players not waiting for Cutscene Watchers

[Harriks]

Alliance Roulette is the reason most alliance raids even happen. Saying, "oh you're doing roulette so you shouldn't expect fast runs" is just dumb.

The bottom line is that people pulling the boss doesn't kick new players out of cutscenes anyway so your entire argument is moot. New people just watch the cutscene and join the battle 10-20 seconds later, usually before any mechanics have even happened. Just get over it.

You can't wait 20 seconds? Take a second and think about what you just said.

Why should people wait?
Hard mode: don't say "b-because it's nice and polite"

Being considerate of others. Letting new players enjoy the game like it was meant to be experienced. (Yes, I exclude experienced players from that)

But being polite should be reason enough. We are talking about 20 mere seconds.

If it's such a mere 20 seconds, why should it matter if people pull?

Because you force them to miss content. That is an active choice you make to the detriment of others. Waiting is passive

Nobody misses content, though. You get to fight the boss, they get to watch their cutscene, and next time they get to fight the boss without the cutscene.

Raidwide, three autos and tankbuster isn't "content".

In the case of Puppet's Bunker it's pretty much a whole phase you miss.

Last time I checked, pulling does not automatically skip people's cutscenes. Unless you mean that they miss a raidwide and maybe a textbox of dialogue, which honestly doesn't even count as content.

If we were still in the days of not being able to join a fight after the arena seals I would agree with you, however, we are not in those times anymore.
