While this has been my experience as a tank and a new player in other roles, there is another factor people forget.

Tanking space in endgame is limited. In every MMO I've ever tanked in it's been an issue. Every one needs more tanks for leveling but, once you hit end game there is a surplus. You have to prove yourself, kick other tanks in the balls and hope other tanks get bored/quit to even have a shot in most cases. The standards for tanks end up much higher gear and skill wise than necessary and starts to trickle down into leveling, damaging the entire role.

This has a tendency to kill off a percentage of existing tanks that might have been in the roulette and deter people from continuing or changing to the role without friends to back them up. Taking them out of the duty finder one way or the other.

It used to take a lot longer for this kind of mindset to become community wide. Now it seems to be almost instant. There is no magic cure. It is a sociological problem.

TLDR Quit hitting yourself.
