    Tanking is my main role I love to play. I love keeping track of the aggro bar, the surrounding area for danger, and equalizing my emnity on the monsters i've pulled to make a run as efficient as possible. Recently though, i've started to hate it.

    I don't like tanking anymore because all people want is to speedrun. Speedrun Speedrun Speedrun. I'm a very laid-back person so I prefer the standard 30min runs I do. I don't think I'm a bad tank. I keep aggro on monsters all the time. Throw down my damage mitigation abilities when necessary. I just don't like being pushed all the time.

    One time I had this awful WP experience where a BLM kept pushing me and insulting me because I was doing a standard run. The healer and other dps was fine with it, but he kept running ahead and pulling monsters. He got us killed three times. He said to "stop pussyfooting". (not sure what he meant, as my pulls are usually 3-5 mobs) Eventually he left and another dps came. We finished the WP run tons of time lost. (more than a standard) I can't stand those type of people.

    If they want speedruns, just shout for them in Mor Dhona and leave the DF for the standard runs. I only tank non-lv50 content now-a-days. (of course, with 2.1 I won't have to deal with these people ever again)
