Palace of the Dead matched party etiquette?

[UnstablePersonality]

Matched parties go like this:

Nobody but you knows how things work. Try and run damage control, because you're gonna have a BLM pulling every single mob while a MNK opens a chest mid-fight, wiping everyone with a bomb.

Or people that run off half cocked and pull a ton of shit and then use rage and die. Had this happen a few times and it's quite annoying.

I've gotten matched parties (on higher levels) like this:

Tank and DPS without healer;
All DPS without tank and healer;
Tank(s) and Healer(s) without DPS;
Probably also once with all healers.

How was the run? I can only say, FANTASTIC...
I am not expecting one day we get that with all tanks, really.

It only gets real fun when you get matched with 3 healers that think they shouldn't dps.

For some reason, I get a bit shakey with it's all DPS. I'm mostly there as NIN. I have stuns, heals, and evasion (Shade Shift) at my disposal. However, the other DPS tend to get careless and would fight for control when I'm being the "tank" unintentionally.

DRGs seem to like to pull with Jump, and sometimes triggering a trap that spawns more adds.
MNKs would want to solo.
BLMs precast and sometimes run around with the mob.
BRDs drop WM so they can kite, but us melee have a hard time keep up.
SMNs are probably the most reliable, as they toss out Titan when requested and the player kinda sits back in the cut.
NINs seem to want to be the one that kills everything and will not wait for others to catch up.
MCHs also kites or knock-back the mob while I'm trying to kill it, sometimes knocking it into a group of mobs.

What I hate the most is, if I was tanking as NIN for the first couple of floors, let me have the Defense promander. Many people will use it but aren't even taking much incoming damage.

Or jump right over a toad trap...

SMN pets actually make me nervous because they can aggro mobs, I've seen overpulls due to titan egi tanking something where it is instead of pulling to hallway.

I go in as a class (not a job), which is about the smartest decision I ever made. The other day I did a total of 9 revives in a 3 dps + 1 healer party as Rogue cause.... people >.> Oh! Not to mention I was protecting and stoneskinning before bigger fights -_-;

On the plus side, I find it more interesting this way and more than once in DF parties I managed to save ourselves from the consequences of someone's stupid actions... You know who you people that run into a room and fight in the middle while triggering everything are!!! >:/
