Is it the default setting for these people? I've also been in raids as DPS with a WHM and AST as heals and I've seen ASTs refuse to go into Noct.

Seeeriously frustrating.
Um...You are an Astrologian and are complaining that others only want Diurnal...and are infuriated about that wanting to know why they only want Diurnal...Aren't you part of that?! I mean, why are you infuriated if not for the fact that YOU want Diurnal as well? If you don't care, then just go Nocturnal and be done with it, there would be naught for you to get angry over.

If I don't care (and I don't, not in 8+ man content anyway) which sect I'm playing, then I base it on whatever the other healer is. Scholar/Nocturnal Astrologian?! I go Diurnal. White Mage/Diurnal Astrologian?! I go Nocturnal. I couldn't care less and I'll pick one or the other myself only if the other Astrologian doesn't seem to be particularly interested in making the first move himself. Though I do usually pick Nocturnal...I came from a Scholar after all, and I do like being able to cast shields before the big hits...

All in all, ask the question as to why "everyone wants to go Diurnal" to yourself. Why do YOU want to go Diurnal so much that being unable to (cause you are reasonable enough to not force a two-Diurnal situation) you are getting infuriated?! That's going to be a similar answer as to what those you ask in general would bring.
