Early Pulling - Is it wrong?

[KageTokage]

I'd personally define an "early pull" as someone pulling after others have clearly made it know that they're still on the way to the hunt in shout chat. People shouldn't be getting mad if the hunt gets killed before they reach it but didn't let anyone know they were coming.

But really, the fault doesn't lie solely with the puller, as the other players could hold off/slow their DPS if they know others are coming. It's not like one tank has any chance of depriving a whole mob of people of their hunt credit and a single DPS will get killed by the boss rather quickly if no one else jumps in to take aggro.

I have to deal with this a lot being one of the few players who actively spawns/calls S ranks on Cactaur, and people generally are willing to wait a few minutes, though there's often one of those guys who pulls the boss the moment they arrive to get it over with and/or irritate the people who frown on such behavior.
