Positioning questions for tank in training

[ManuelBravo]

Heya! I'm still trying to pick up the finer points of tanking (wanting to be a better healer so I've picked up tanking, PLD for now).

I'm having trouble with some more advanced positioning questions. I fully get the "spin the enemies away from you" technique, but there are a few other questions that come up:

When I do spin the mobs, sometimes there is that player that is on my side that doesn't have positional. Should I try to re position, or just say "screw it" and it is their fault for getting hit (I had a BRD do this. Seemed odd).

When I lose aggro on ONE enemy I usually provoke/shield lob so I don't cleave the group, but if more than one got lost due to my healer going gunho on Medica 2 and regen right at the beginning of a pull, do I risk cleaving the group to try to go over to them and Flash a few times?

Thanks!

As a tank you have to sometimes take charge of the run and ask for assistance when needed. here are some samples; DPS won't always position them selves unless they have some tanking experience , set your rotations to were you have control over and keep an eye on what you can stun, I find moves facing edge or walls help a lot. Side step is your friend and in some cases walking through them and back helps alot, just time their aoes patterns..and lastly, Tell your healer not to put healing dots on until you have pulled to avoid agro going after them. It's a basic 101 for healers but some still need a reminder specially if your a tank. Say pls and thank you will get you long ways in party morale. Raids however you pretty much have to be on your toes.
