I can really understand angry Tanks. There's something about people letting you down that makes you cynical. If someone bites it during a FATE I'll raise them after because it takes 5 seconds and what kind of jerk would I be to leave them lying there. Inversely... I watch CNJs run off leaving my dead butt behind. You jump up to tank for a group of 14 people and no ONE heals you? Even if you hold yourself at 10% health for a full minute not ONE? You start wanting to see them all wipe when it suddenly jumps to the nearest THM and tears them down before they can run and hide.

While I'm running around as a healer and I keep the tank alive during those battles they _thank_ me afterwards. That says something. A tank's role is to hold hate and a healer's is to heal. Why is the tank thanking me for healing instead of me thanking him for tanking? I usually say as much when they thank.

Angry tanks are often just cynical of those around them for good reason.
