It has become the accepted way of how Excalibur does hunts, allowing the majority to get full credit by waiting and pulling in unison.
Pulling as a small group just meant they'd screwed over a lot of people from getting credit, which imo is kind of selfish. Clearly the tank was trying to reset so more of the group to get credit. I don't think there's anything wrong with that.
Actually, hunts aren't meant to be zerged by the whole server per mark. If you're actively hunting around maps and you find a mark, you're not suposed/forced to call it for the whole server to kill it (even though if you do, that's up to the player's choice) and if a group if legitly scouting and farming for their own party and find a mob, you have abosolutely no right to interfere with the game mechanics and ruin those players experience, that could even fall under harrasment. If you are in a collective TS/LS for hunting, that's your choice (I respect it, even though it's the actual source of disaster with hunts). You chose to share (sharing is not the same as being forced to share something because you want to get something without effort, talk about being selfish there) and you have no right to call out those who chose not to, by killing the marks upon discovery.
Many people don't get along. Many people hate the fact that others are leeching kills while AFKing in towns waiting for someone to post a location they've spent hours scouting for. It's just not only about not getting full credit because many people zerged a mark, it's because you risk to get ZERO credit because mob texture might disappear while it's exploding within seconds because there were many people around. You can't blame people for choosing their own path to killing hunts (which in fact happens to be the designed way) because they're fed up of getting nothing thanks to the leechers. And calling out would only work if they remade the hunt systems to have (even more) greatly increased HP, contribution rate and texture priority.
