I seriously don't get how DPS and healers get it into their heads that they could or should be pulling mobs. If the tank is pulling too few for your comfort, you talk to them - tell them that the group can handle a larger pack. Hopefully the tank listens and pulls more. At no point should they take it upon themselves to grab more stuff... especially if pulling more isn't a consensus with the rest of the group.
But no, it's usually folks that want to be done fast and want huge pulls regardless of whether the group can handle it or not because they totally have so many other things to do. What they never seem to be able to wrap their heads around is that wiping takes up more time than properly pacing the pulls.
... And, please, if big pulls are being done? HOLD OFF ON DPS until the mob is gathered! I had a WPHM run that had more than one incident of the DRG getting mobs on him because he was DPSing mid-pull. So I have to double back to get THAT thing, which means a Flash isn't being used on the rest of the group, which means the WHM's Medica pulls the freshest mobs' aggro onto them...
It's just an obnoxious downward spiral.
