    Tank popularity is the key problem, and is caused largely by the human factor. They effectively must be leaders, and if they don't lead well they are berated leading to fewer interested.

    Id personally like incentive to keep 2 tanks in parties more often... Nexus was horrendous due to onetankplox mentality. If tanks were more popular, there would be more of them.

    Perhaps there could be some sort of wondertwinpowersunite buff if a party has two tank jobs? (probably a pipe dream, still...)

    You could be on to something. Tanks are rare because of how much people mistreat the ones that are in the game. I certanly don't like it when a DPS critisizes how I tank and I wind up thinking "Ok, you tank the pulls while I suck at DPSing, how does that sound?" Thus the DPS vs Tank hatred. Then Healers start to be rare because they are the 1st to get blamed if ANYTHING happenes. It dosn't matter that the party died from Megaflair's one shot kill because aparently a healer that dosn't suck can heal the entier party even though every one is dead. This the Healer vs DPS hatred and the Tank vs Healer conflicts.

    People don't want those positions because they arn't fun. And they arn't fun because of how poorly they get treated. It causes the thinking "I can get yelled at and critisized IRL for free, why am I going to pay 12.99 USD a month to get the same treatment online?"
