so your telling me you have never been in a situation where a tank pulls and gets himself and everyone else killed in the group then leaves the party? youve never been in a situation where the tank rushes off to leave you behind with npc's on your tail? youve never been in a situation where you havent had time to complete a dungeon quest becuase the tank has gone off and left you?
people im not saying go at a snails pace, im saying go at a pace everyone can be comfortable with and even though im getting ganged up on here there were plenty of people on my other thread that are sick and tired of the hurry, it sucks. so yeah im talking about levelers, i wont ever think anything different
Wow. trying to influence people's votes. Shame on you :)
Cheers.

If for some reason I'm running a lolroic on a dps toon, then I want the tank to pull as fast as possible, so that toon can get back in the df tool asap.

Trolls, that statement WAS the OP.
I get annoyed by speed pulls IF the tank pulls more than the healer/dps can handle. I will stop to loot if I am a healer, and if the tank dies before I can get there, then eh, oh well. If I can top him/her off and just continue on, then cool - pull away!
I see what you are trying to get at littlelot, but you are getting an apples vs. oranges type of scenario here. The speed pull tanks that are all for it, are cool to do so - if they outgear the instance that much and can survive all the trash and most of the boss encounters then let 'em - the ones that can do it, are geared/skilled enough (generally, though as in everything there are exceptions) to be able to handle all the pulls, and should have a solid knowledge base of the instance in question to know what pats are where, and to plan accordingly.
When it is an undergeared tank that you have to do everything you possibly can to keep them alive that is the chain-puller, then sure let them die if you have told them to slow down and wait for heals.
If I had to vote here, I would say most likely both.
I - if the tank is undergeared, or can't wait for the healer to mana up, and ends up wiping the group.
Not I - if the tank can handle every pull with little (if any) help, and the run goes smoothly.
As everyone knows, we ALL pay to play, and we ALL have the option to play as we want. My only issue is with the chainpulling tanks not looting, if you skin, or need cash (which is probably unlikely unless you are buying a lot of epic gear/flying) then it can be bothersome, but chances are you are making more cash if you run a couple randoms/heroics with the same group (instant queues/and 4/5 people looting twice as many mobs in the same timeframe as opposed to 5/5 for one run - meaning if it takes you 20 min normally, then with the speed tank 10 min, the speed run would net you 8/5 of the loot of one run, as well as more JP's)
Just my 2¢

Why? Because this thread is going nowhere and the reasons stated in most of the replies are mostly located
here.
In your OTHER bloody thread that you've made on the same topic.
Just let it go, why do you dislike tanks pulling fast?
Nevermind. no more questions

You're not getting "ganged up on." People are sharing their honest opinions. Most of them disagree with you. Deal with it. My greatest problem with tanks is that they're either not confident enough to pull as much as I know their gear and my healing can handle, or they're dps who signed up as tank and their health bar does a scary yo-yo act throughout the instance.
Also if you were talking about leveling, you should've specified that in your first post, because most of the discussion here and in the other thread was oriented toward heroics.
This thread is going nowhere because only level 80 people are posting, we need to get a better pool of pollers. except that most leveling wow players arent so hooked on this game as to check and write on these forums erday.
If you'd read a little bit carefully, hes stating that this discussion is orientated towards
HEROICS
(meaning: WotLK dungeons in heroic mode), or so i herd you liek clearing heroics with lv 1s?
