    True to a degree.
    There are tanks that want to speedrun when the others don't want to or are not able to.

    Personally I don't do speedruns. I prefer low stress runs.
    In duty roulette I've occasionally come across tanks that think they can speedrun, as well as made sure to kick one tank that repeatedly pulled way more than could be handled.
    Most of the time they quickly adapt themselves to me as healer when they see I'm not doing what they're used to for speedruns, but seldom any complaints as things proceed at a steady pace either way.

    One of the worst type is the ones that pull as much as possible to boss room and try to get the mobs locked out.

    Essentially, if anyone wants speedruns, go make a party in the party finder for it.

    Disagree, I found tank in darklight pull 2-3 groups in WP without realizing our dps got only ilvl 55 weapon,
    it took like forever to kill those mobs and myself heal like crazy. Then I told him to pull one group at a time so that I can help dps as SCH. It went very well after that.

    Point is, tank is just one out of three role in this game, don't have privilege to force other players to follow your playstyle.
    You should listen to other whether or not they are comfortable to do so.
