If no one asks then the PROPER and CORRECT assumption is that you are doing fine and actually know how to manage your TP (managing TP is like managing mana - it CAN be done, but no one bothers to try because they like to use Bards and NINs like crutches).
The ability to see TP is actually one of the most requested features that the developers are working on implementing, and Tank and Spank fights like Five-headed Dragon will cause Paladin MTs to run out of TP if the fight drags out for longer than 3 minutes 45 seconds unless the RNG favors them with Shield Swipe procs (and those will only extend TP by 2.5 seconds per proc).
