    I think its a convenience issue as well. Most of the time these things happen after a ready up.

    And with the delays this game has, the actual timer might just be started too late, so the pull was already committed.

    The best solution here would be if the ready check could automaticly also trigger the timer (so after everyone is ready, you have a 10s countdown). If people know this timer gets automaticly started, they are more likely to wait. To have it always would be meaningless since sometimes its just used to ensure everyone can face the start of the battle (as sometimes the start is significantly better for dealing damage because boss mechanics start later on), so in these cases people just can pull whenever they like.

    But in the end, we are talking about people... it never will be perfect.

    I was a monk and I got murdered at the CT raid when I rushed the area where it's the 3 red dudes and then the red dragon drops. I died in 2 seconds. Tank started the timer and I was like "Nah". Tank gets all huffy and said I deserved that and I laughed cause it WAS funny and said "Sorry not use to having to prepare for the easiest content ever. Has everyone eaten their raid food?"

    Everyone thought it was pretty funny and one had to say "Hey Renalt it looks like you need to do more sit-ups. Your abs didn't save ya". It was a fun run from then on. We all respected the timer to appease Mr. Tank and made jokes the entire time.

    When you deal with human beings, never count on logic or consistency.

    Fluid like water. Smooth like silk. Pepperoni like pizza.

    How hard is it to take the boss back from a dps? What are you trying to prove?

    I meet tanks like that sometimes and they get salty but there’s no way Im not healing the dps who pulled especially as a sage. Kardia belongs to him now.
    Unless its extreme or savage I don’t see the big fuss. Small peepee energy must be.

    I do if various people went afk and didn't mention they were back. Or one comes back and the other person might be back, but hasn't said they're back. It's a very rare occurrence.

    It is nice to wait during the Atmos part as now any B or C stragglers end up in A's lane automatically. Same with happens in WoD. I also like to let A pull Thanos as if they're not in the arena on time they'll miss the buff that let's them do damage to the boss. And yes I have had again on rare occasions had C have a chance at said boss due to A having so few people get the buff. At least that's how it happens with the ants in pants that is Aether. No count downs, maybe a ready check but mostly just a unspoken agreement treated as a community's idea of courtesy.

    I just had an instance in Abyssos 5 normal where someone pulled early, don't know if it was a timer disrespect, who pulled or what, all I know is that in less than a second the bard was dead and the boss started chomping on me before the tanks gained aggro.

    Not every pull timer is worth respecting
