You are not a fail.

you still never answered if you were against all the other examples I gave previously Kosmos. From your posts, I can only assume you want everyone to play the game exactly as each encounter was designed with no allowance for various strategies. That's what I mean, finding new ways to run things. From the way you type, you want all content level synced, all ways to push phases and run different strategies removed, and there should only be one way to do all content. Is that true? Is that your point?

My point is that a) the game should be played as intended, b) no one should be made to play in a way that they are uncomfortable with, and c) no one should be harassed because they do not meet the expectations of another for playing.

Applying a worthwhile level sync to WP and AK would not prevent speed runs, nor would it hurt you, me or anyone else in any way, but it would preserve the mechanics of the dungeon to a decent extent.

Frankly though, I really dislike speed runs, and especially forced speed runs. I do not find them enjoyable experiences, nor do I enjoy being abused by some dps who wants to push things by pulling the trash ahead of us to force the pace. If you want to go find fun new ways of doing things, go make a PF group for it, duty finder is meant to be there to help players find others to play with, so you can't expect players there to be ready for a mega pull or speed run.

People clear Amdapor Keep and Wanderer's Palace, two iLvL synced dungeons in around 10-12 minutes, their difficulty is non existent. The main goal of the iLvL sync is to tone down speed running, not remove it.

Which it abjectly fails to do.

For someone who is against other people telling you how to play, your stance on the subject isquite hypocritical.

Hardly, my stance is simple, don't tell me how to play, you may not like that I like the play the full dungeon mechanics and not pull the entire trash pack at once, but guess what, that's not my issue, and it's how the dungeon was designed. No hypocrisy, just a position that you and other don't like because it's in the way of your speed run grind. Feel free to cross me off your Xmas card list though.
