    Have Fun RP-ing a Tank

    Logged on to just say, Yoshi changed the TOS recently and asked us not to "compel a playstyle".

    If a DPS wants to roleplay a Tank, I am going to let them. I am not going to pull aggro off of them because following the TOS is important to me. I'm not going to berate them in chat, and I'm not going to tell them to stop. I am going to continue hitting the mobs that I pulled and keep it moving.

    If the DPS dies during their RP, I can only assume it was a part of the experience that they wanted. Maybe they have a masochistic streak? Hopefully the healer can handle their decisions.

    Each role has a purpose and a set of responsibilities. But if people want to RP other roles, I am all here for being supportive! So peep the name, I'm on Aether, if you get into a dungeon with me, go ham! I will not compel you to stay in your lane, just as you will not compel me to adopt your playstyle.

    Except you have to actively refuse to take aggro by stopping to aoe. Otherwise it's impossible to not take aggro. So you are very much forcing your playstyle on them. No DPS wants to tank the mobs they pull, that's just something you made up to excuse your own petty behavior. Please grow up.
