    Before complaining about "early pullers", consider the following:

    Hunts are back. Huzzah! With them, all the super funsie fun time 'drama' over people pulling early. In the majority of cases though, little to no blame falls (or should fall) on the puller.
    • The person might not be pulling early. The people not making it in time are simply late, and the fault lies with them for doing so.
    • The person pulling didn't zerg it down in 10 seconds flat. That fault lies with everyone else, and if it was really such an early pull, there would not be enough manpower to do so.
    Anyways, just a bit of food for thought. And remember: Whenever you point a finger at someone, you're pointing 3 more back at yourself.

    I remember one time when we found the mark. We stopped and gave the location to the LS and everyone in the area and waited until a lot of people showed up. It took about 4 minutes for about 4 full parties to show up and we pulled and killed the mark. We gave the notice and someone shouted "Thanks for waiting you dipshits" and began talking shit about everyone.

    You could wait 20 minutes before pulling and someone will still cry and say that you pulled early. :/

    From listening to all of the drama, especially around Mor Dhona the best solution:

    - When the hunt is announced you have five minutes to get there before you are considered late.
    - Letting people in the area know about the impending pull with a time like 'pulling in one minute' is helpful.
    - If fools jump in before the 5min pull time let them fight it solo and see how they do; this would be difficult to enforce.

    night time hunts are the best.......I literally had time to hold conversation with some people while we waited and we were all so genuine like a mini alliance doing hunting a night it was about 20-30 of us and we each searched and spoke in LS ....then 8am hit...... yeah

    this pulled early stuff is the stupid problem with hunts.

    Pulled early = you did not wait for my friends to finish beating the last boss of WoD to pull X A rank mob wtf!

    My Guild following a simple rule on pulling. We wait 3mins after it is called out then we pull it. That simple. If people consider that early pulling so be it then we early pull. That is more then enough time to get anywhere in the game from any where else in the game.

    A guy in a LS I was in would announce the mark to all his channels...when it was @ 30%. Needless to say he wasn't very well liked. lol

    I was surprised by how civil things were on Hyperion today. Marks were called out in linkshells, a big crowd would gather and we'd pull. Didn't see any nasty shouts, didn't see any bickering, nothing... just people being patient and helpful toward their fellow gamers. Was pretty cool!

    Hopefully, it stays this way. Judging by these boards, Hyperion seemed to offer one of the nicer atmospheres for hunts.

    We wait 3mins after it is called out then we pull it. That simple. If people consider that early pulling so be it then we early pull.
    That's a great, fair "rule" you guys have adopted. If everyone did the same, I don't think there would be much complaining (except from people who'd find ways to complain about anything).
