I post honest, on-topic answers/thoughts.
The fact that you disagree does not make me a troll, sorry.

If you were on my server !@#$-pulling like you say you are, no one would group with you, and would sure as hell give your "Top end raiding guild" a bad rep. If anything when you pull your creating more downtime on the group because they now have to contemplate kicking you, get aggro from you, and healers would have to drink.
How's your logic now, bud..
Uh, most healers don't drink in heroics at all. I still have ~15 of the original 20 waters I bought when I hit 80. Also, explain to me how it takes more mana to heal the tank than it takes to... heal the tank? Unless you mean when I'm playing my druid, in which case it's my mana to begin with, and I can't go OOM unless I purposely spam lifebloom on everyone in the group for no reason whatsoever.
How's my logic? Impeccable.

Oh man, you mean I couldn't join your terrible PuGs for raids I either have zero interest in doing, or already cleared with my guild?
OHNOEZ, WHATEVER WILL I DO!
P.S.: You may want to check the definition of ignorant. It does not mean what you seem to think it means.

1. Set loot rules up front and then Don't rage over it if it is abused. You cannot change it, just ignore anyone who choses to steal/need on anything they agreed to greed/de on. (mainly Frost Orbs) I have over 40 in the bank, I don't care who ends up with a frost orb.
2. The Tank is the Tank and ONLY the tank should pull or decide when to pull.
3. If I am doing something wrong as a tank PLEASE tell me. I am not perfect, I make mistakes and I learn from those mistakes. I am not going to respond to L2tank though, or UFAILTANK. Can't tell you how many times I forget to switch from Crusader Aura at the beginning of a run. And yes from time to time I look at the bottom of my screen to see lots of w's, s's, and d's.
4. Please don't attack a mob I am not attacking, die and then blame me. If you cannot attack the mobs I am attacking and you want to aggro something, then you pulled it you tank it. I taunt it back ONLY to have you attack it again. I'll do this once then you are on your own, I owe it to the other 3 people in the raid to tank for them, not just one person that wants to do their own thing.
5. A Heroic is a GROUP effort. Not a solo experience. If you cannot adapt and meld to the group dynamics you should probably stick with running Heroics with your friends/guildies.
6. I will pull at the speed of the group. NOT the person saying GO GO GO, all the time. Speed running is fun and I can do it just fine in most Heroics but if my Team isn't geared enough to keep up then I am going to slow it down a little.
7. I play for one reason and one reason only. To have FUN. It is a strange concept for some of you in this game, but it is the reason I play. That isn't to say that I don't take tanking seriously, but I am not going to let someone who thinks they are the end-all-be-all of their class ruin my relaxation and fun time.
8. Final item, NEVER ask me to kick someone because of a low gear score or because they just dinged 80 and have all greens. If they come in and give 100% I am NOT kicking them. Period. We were all new 80s once and everyone deserves a chance to have fun, get gear and get better.
Good job.
This should be posted on the main page of the official WoW site.

Obviously you don't care what other people think of you, so my point is invalid.
Finally something we can agree on.

Then you'll get kicked from my group and I'll find another healer or dps or whatever you play. LFD is nice and efficient for finding new people.
I'm the tank, I pull. If you pull for me, good bye.
Except that the vast majority of players prefer fast to slow, and your vote would fail, of course.

Yes and you can also be a total ^&*! while your at it.And?
My goal is to get my badges and get out, as fast as possible. I don't care in the slightest if random scrubs like or hate me.
The more random scrubs hate you, the more you get put on ignore list. The more you are put on ignore list the longer it takes to find a group. The longer it takes to find a group=less badges (and all the bad rep you garner on other servers). honestly, wouldn't it be faster just to be considerate and wait for the tank and healers to be good and ready before the pull?

Fixed.
False. Please cite examples if you feel my logic is circular. Until that time, I will consider you an idiot.

Then I'll leave and find another group. I usually know what I want to do with the next group of trash. Having someone pull for me screws that up.
I don't understand why the f**k you feel the need to be a pain in the ass and pull for the tank.
Enjoy waiting for your cooldown. If you want to make your badges slower, feel free.
The only thing you need to do with the next group of trash is pull it. I can't think of a single pack off the top of my head that requires any sort of pre-thought. Sure, you
can
LoS some, but you can still do that quickly, or just not bother. Either is acceptable. What's not acceptable is standing around for no reason.

There are more than enough people playing for this to never be a problem, aside from the fact that most people probably don't even use the ignore list.
honestly, wouldn't it be faster just to be considerate and wait for the tank and healers to be good and ready before the pull?No? That's the entire topic. You're "good and ready" now. Here come some mobs.

How about the iron dwarves in HoL that can literally kill the entire group in a few seconds if the tank isn't prepared and the DPS aren't out of melee range when the dwarves begin the whirlwind?
