Its a shame Paladins have to be tanks. I understand.

So I'm experiencing what it is like to be a tank and I have to say to all the tanks out there;

"I am sorry but you must have the patience of a saint"

Honestly, it is probably the role that gets the most abuse in the game. If you want to go slower because you are still learning how to tank and interrupt abilities, you get yelled at by DPS.

If you want to pull one group at a time, you get yelled at...

Its such a toxic experience, I am not surprised the Roulette wants tanks most of the time.

I wanted to level a Paladin because they have the coolest armour (In my opinion) but the toxic nature of tanking has REALLY put me off levelling one. The toxicity in this game has made a massive spike since we started getting a huge influx of WoW refugees here. Coincidence...?

No this game has plenty of toxic players you've just been lying to your self or ignoring them. You have been listening to people talk about how amazing this games community is to much on youtube. It has always had toxic players and it always will just like any online game. Ignore people and learn to be a better pally, or stop playing pally those are your choices.

But they can't be "openly" toxic And if they try to be - report them.

Reporting is childish

Reporting is childish

Is it though? There is no reason to let people act out in ways that are inherently disrespectful.

Reporting is childish

Either you keep the community at some level of public manners or you get a runaway effect of elitism and hostility.

Reporting is childish

No, reporting is normal if the offense warrants it. Obviously. That's common sense. Beyond that, normal and sociable folk generally want the world to be a better place.

So, what, you witness a person spouting third reich as well as pedophilic ideals in Limsa, and just walk on by, because "reporting is childish"? Nah, that's downright stupid.

Apathy and ignorance are childish, when you really think about it.
