A note about pulling a raid mob:
It is not against raid rules, although highly frowned upon, to pull a raid mob to a camp where your raid is *going* to be, even if they aren't there yet (because they are either logging in or running to that area).
Consider Faydedar as a decent example. Most guilds tag Faydedar before the full raid force is present at Ogre island. Because it takes 5+ minutes to get Faydedar from spawn to ogre island, that gives your raid 5+ minutes to be ready. The same is true for Severilous, who takes about 4 minutes on average to pull from spawn to TT (where he's often fought).
You take an enormous risk in doing this, in 2 ways. One, if you don't have enough of a raid force present, you essentially knock down the mobs health a bit, wipe, and you've just pulled it and made it easier for your competition. Second, if we find that you intentionally pulled the mob to an area and you never intended to have enough to kill it, especially if you pull it within aggro distance of another raid force and die, you'll be hit with raid disruption and/or kiting a raid mob.
It's a big risk, and we don't really like when guilds do it. But not currently against the raid rules.
