This is a ridiculous statement. From what I can tell, this tank wasn't doing what the party WANTED him to do; not doing what he wanted to do. He was there to tank, was doing it, and got kicked anyway. If you think I'm saying that you can just play how you want to play due to privilege, you have absolutely no clue whatsoever where I'm coming from.

And don't try to use that "muh responsabilities" argument, it's a total fraud. Again, the weight of these "responsabilities" doesn't give you the right to ignore the will of the majority of the group just because you want to watch Netflix after throwing a few Flash/Overpower and pressing a cooldown once in a while. You claim that healing is easy, well, guess what, tanking is even easier. Trying to argue otherwise would only show how little knowledge one would have on tanking (at least in dungeons).
Ohhhh, I've been tanking dungeons for quite some time. Come along anytime to see how little I know about tanking them. I'm not saying "muh responsabilities"; I try to use proper grammar as best I can, sir. What I am saying is that the tank is under no obligation to pull large. The group is not entitled to make demands, which they did. Want to disagree with that? Go right ahead.

You want to know an actual reason why a lot of players don't play tanks? Because of people like you, who make it look like tanking is so hard and would put tons of responsabilities on their shoulders. So if you could drop that line of thinking and stop spreading it, maybe people would actually start being less anxious at something that is clearly not as bad as you make it sound.
Resorting to personal attacks now are we? That's indicative of intellectual bankruptcy, but go right ahead and keep going with your trite strawman arguments. I never said tanking was hard. Go ahead and point out where I did. I just said it has more responsibility, which it does. Responsibility =/= difficulty.

Calling something that is at the core of a tank's duty and teamplay a "courtesy" is preposterous...
Ok, probably best I end this argument with you right here. You're on a tangent and clearly infallible. My humblest of apologies for ruffling thy feathers, my lord.
