Screaming and bolding what you want your opinion to be is pretty selfish people do like the tank DPS focus right now because they can pull it off as it's not a background goal, learning to maximize both defense and offense is what you want as a tank. It sounds like to me that you are okay with people doing the bare minimum which is something you shouldn't spout to other tanks in the forums, it's not elitist to tell people how to improve or toxic, it's ideas like yours and screaming "LOOK AT ME" in the forums that is the problem.

    So please don't describe how you think a tank should be, talk about what we already have in game and talk about that instead of yelling how people respond to your questions who are more adept in explaining the various reasons why tanks are the way they are. You forget that this is an MMO where everyone has to do their part tanks, healers, DPS, everyone, just because you don't like how tanks are you shouldn't be bringing everyone down to your level because you don't like the way it is. I'm sorry if this is harsh but this is the state of the game right now it could change in 4.0 but I highly doubt it.

    So would I, stance dancing is fine as it is but i'd rather want something more meaty and with more intelligent design, working for threat, or a dynamic change in how tanks are, we'll have to wait until the live letter to see if anything of worth is changing with how tanks are handled.
