That was me. I'm a bit of an odd duck when it comes to swarm kiting. If you follow the guides you are supposed to drain every monster you can for efficiency sakes. For me, I like to stay around 20-30 mobs. It's perhaps not as efficient but I enjoy it and it leaves a healthy supply of mobs still around the area of other people pulling. I also am not super skilled, so when I mess up, the likely hood of surviving 20 mobs is quite different than 60.
I also try to OOC when I am swarm kiting in a zone so if people have an issue they can just tell me and we can talk it out.
What I've noticed is that if you are running with SoW you might not notice it when you run by a mob but if you get in melee range and then try to flee, the monster hits you WAY more than it did before. It's like the mobs top speed might not be that much different but their acceleration speeds is much higher.

Well, hey there! I like you.
I don't let myself get into melee range most of the time, so maybe that's it. I was definitely outrunning them (constantly getting out of casting range) otherwise.
