New player question: elitist?

[Jamez82]

Tanks generally catch a lot of flak when something goes wrong though (even if it is someone else's fault). The game puts a lot of pressure on tanks to perform and the community is generally hyper-critical about tanks and healers (tanks most-so). Don't let those comments get you down and keep in mind that you'll shut them up if you stick to the game.

So, given the fact your main class is gladiator, I would expect many more elitist comments questioning your skill, parentage, and self-worth. I'm afraid players will always complain about the tank first, the healer second, and ignore the dps.

This 1,000,000%.

It's also why I believe dps outnumber tanks and healers 10 to 1. If SE can fix this, they can fix a lot of issues at once.
