    A lot of people mistaken the forums for a blog.

    I haven't tanked for very long, up to about level 27 as a MRD, but I learned a few lessons in my short time of tanking. Like what to do when a DPS wants to run ahead of me and pull optional groups.

    The way I see it is if a DPS wants to pull so badly, let them pull. I'll try to draw aggro off them, but they'd best keep in mind that if they die or cause a wipe, it's their own fault and not mine. If you're a DPS or healer, pull at your own risk. And if they don't like the fact that I have that mentality, they can go ahead and kick me from the group. I'll find another one, while they'll be stuck waiting for another tank.

    I get what you're trying to say, but you sabotaged your own argument by being entitled yourself, lol. DPS are entitled, tanks are entitled, and so are healers. You go in as a party, so act like one and discuss it before starting.

    I am entitled to do my job as a tank if I am a tank. That is not true entitlement, as tanks are asking for no special privileges to pull, just doing their jobs. DPS are not entitled to do a tank's job if they aren't tanks. Believing themselves to have the right to is believing themselves to have special privileges to do things that are not within their job.

    Glad to see that people who have posted here since I've gone have been more civil though. And no, this isn't sarcasm.
