    I agree, but I think there's a bit you're leaving out.

    If a DPS pulls mobs, it is your job to tank them, not to let them tank it and die. However, if enough mobs are pulled that your mitigation and the healer's cure bombs aren't keeping you alive, you can proceed to blame the DPS for pulling too much. Once AOE becomes a thing, it's typically better to pull multiple sets of trash rather than one at a time to speed up the dungeon. This is actually showcased well in Wanderer's Palace @ 50, where moving faster is the gimmick of the dungeon. I don't think the DPS should be pulling for the tank, but I do think that if the DPS pulls you should (as Seravi said) do your job.

    Also, on topic, when leveling DPS classes I would never bother to pop CDs at the start of a boss outside of Internal Release. Tank threat is gimped horribly pre-50 and they can barely hold hate with no DPS popping stuff. If they're not popping CDs then welcome to the struggle of pre-Rage of Halone/Shield Oath PLD. If you think NINs are bad, wait until you run into an ARC/BRD. Nightmares.
