Does tanking carry more responsibility than most?

Not as many commendations as HEALER or TANK by far.

I once got three recommendations on a guildhest as a healer except I tossed out one maybe two cures the entire fight. People see they had mostly full health the entire time and just assume it was me and not their own ability at dodging/negating damage.

Problem is there are some really rude pushy ppl in the game, especially ones wanting to hurry through their dailies. They tell me to gogogogo as a tank lol. Other ppl are just mellow and I find playing with cool ppl things actually end up going better on a run.

I totally agree! As a tank new to high level dungeons I get people who just want to speed through it and I feel the pressure to go faster than I'm comfortable with, which gives me little room to really learn what I'm doing or lead the group effectively. Usually it's fine when I'm backed by three very good players, but ironically the pushier a player is, the worse they seem to be at the game >_>
