    Per the guidelines, a tank would have to be "lethargic" enough that dps/healer pulling for them would be more of a remedy to the lethargic gameplay than it is aiding the enemies.

    I know people like to get high all the time but then they go slooowwwwww

    As someone who plays tank 90% of the time, my opinion is that if you pull it then it is your problem. I will be at the next pack waiting for you to bring it to me. I will swipe and then use oregeny, which is more than enough to pull aggro, but if it has ran through and I missed, then you better have some CDs ready. I certainly don't chase after people anymore.
    I don't consider myself slow by any means. My fastest time on MW is 12 minutes and for the new dungeon 13:30. Chasing after people just slows the run down.

    So this comes up every time YPYT is discussed and it is always a case of people arguing past each other, so to surmise: YPYT does not refer to a Tank being unwilling to chase down a DPS to rip aggro off of them, it specifically refers to a Tank who is entirely unwilling to rip off aggro off a DPS that pulled ahead, even if they run back to the Tank immediately, the Tank will either simply refuse to use any AoE skills to avoid touching the mobs the DPS aggro'd, or will straight up stand idle, and remain so until the DPS dies, they often express this is "teaching a lesson". If you aren't bothered by a DPS touching mobs first so long as they bring the mobs to you or at least don't run away with them(dungeons are hallways anyway), you are not a YPYT advocate.

    Furthermore, I would argue a DPS who panics and runs away with mobs is as bad and uncooperative as a YPYT Tank.
