Thanks Trancery! I appreciate the props, and I plan on "doing it again" and again. Assuming of course, I don't slip something inappropriate and ban-worthy in future posts.

Which I probably will. On accident. But not on accident.

I can't win.

Kinda off topic, but I really like your signature.

Good post, but should apply to everyone and not just tanks. In general, everyone could use a little more patience and tolerance. The game does not have a skill requirement to play, and everyone has different levels of commitment and interests. Too often people are expecting perfect performance from random players. We all get frustrated with things, but there are nice ways of telling people they need more practice without telling them to kill themselves.

Oh my god so true xD. I think this relates in any kind of mmorpg as well.

You're either not telling the whole truth, don't use the DF very often, or don't play as tank as often as you say you do.

I find roughly one jerk per day in the doody finder, more often than not they're taking their frustrations out on me as tank. Sometimes I legitimately screw up, more often though they're just jerks.

I just make them take them 45 minute penalty queue while I find an instant group after my 15 minute re-entry timer wears off.

Really? I just leveled a new tank alt from 1-45 completely in Duty Finder and never saw a problem. ._. Same with AK when I do Duty finder I just say "Hi." And everyone says "Hello!" and we get to it.

If anyone leaves party it's usually me because we just wiped 3 times to Psycheflayers golem. :(
