Why I've not been playing as a Paladin lately...

[Killabye]

I haven't really had any problems since I started my new method, just being a dick to everyone. If they pull hate, go for it. They talk trash, they usually die next mob. Sometimes I just tell them to vote to kick and do something else for a few minutes with responses like "why" "waaaaaa" etc, then I come back and reque. If I gotta run the show they gotta dance how I tell them

I met a tank exactly like how you described. It was no fun working with him because he literally don't pull aggro off anyone even the healer. he would even intentionally wiped in boss fight because another dps called him out on not pulling aggro off. As much as i hate DPS who are being dickheads, tanks who are being dickhead is much worse. I usually warn the dps and give them at least a chance or two before going dickhead mode.

I play in a similar style to what was described, though the only time that I'll let someone "tank" instead of me is if that DPS is being *really* annoying and doing someone monumentally exasperating like explicitly choosing to attack a target other than the burn target. Even though, it's often more harder for me to let them get aggro than it is for me to just keep aggro on everything: a couple Overpowers and a Steel Cyclone is basically a free pass to AFK as a WAR.

If a DPS or healer wants to be an annoying little shit, I've got no problem either getting them kicked or leaving myself; it's just leveraging the comparative rarity of my skill set. If I leave, all I'm losing is 30 minutes of time in which I can't queue (but can still do PF to my heart's content, so it's not like I'm actually losing anything), but they'll be waiting around for a tank (generally longer than my own wait would be) or, much more likely, straight up abandoning the instance because it takes so long to get a replacement tank; if they get kicked, they're going to go through another interminable DPS/healer queue. It's one of the many benefits of enjoying/playing the least popular role. There are plenty of DPS/healers that complain about it when tanks do it but I doubt that they ever consider that the stuff that I bail on groups over is part of the reason why there are so few tanks, which is exactly why I do it.
