Yep, I do that every time as well.

The only time someone EVER had an issue with it was recently in Titan HM.
Someone said "Of all the fights. You choose this one..."
Before I could type a response, someone came to my defense saying "There's a first time for everything. Now stfu and deal damage"

Needless to say, he shutup for the rest of the duty.

From experience, letting everyone you're new will help quite a bit. People will explain mechanics to you, and are generally appreciative that you actually let them know it's your first time to that particular dungeon/duty.
