Also, as a tank, you're the most exposed to people. Since you pretty much gotta run ahead of the group, you'll find a lot of demanding people telling you what to do and judging you: If you pull 2 monsters only, if you pull all of them, it's really noticeable if you don't use cds, the healer will remember that. If you're too slow, if you're too fast. If you grab a group of monsters that one of the DPS didn't like (He'll probably let you know). Also, for example, there's only 3 tanks spot in ST and WoD. So people will wait for YOU. You're 1 out of 3 tanks out of 22 guys trapped in a raid looking at YOU. Waiting for YOU to move. Try to please them all. As a DPS, you'll be mostly un-noticeable.

    PD: I play tank (paladin and warrior), healer (scholar) and DPS (dragoon and blackmage).

    You would be surprised how people incredibly manage it to turn every kind suggestion into a direct attack to their egos. It's really hard to give a suggestion in this game for some reason. No matter how kind you are, if you use a smiley at the end of the sentence. Whatever you do, there will be people who will turn back, stare at you and send you to hell. Either that or just ignore you and still do their own.
