My rules.

1: I do my job, no matter what.

When I first started tanking the FC that trained me wanted to make sure I was a good tank, going out of their way to give me hell. DPS pulling mobs, healers not healing till I was in the red, DPS doing single target combos in large group pulls, they put me through all of it. As a result most of the things that bother other players don't bother me at all. HP in the red? NP, my healers got me. DPS pulling? Let me just effortlessly pick those up for you. I, personally, find more joy in watching DPS struggle and fail to make my life hard over letting them die needlessly just cause they didn't do things my way. In fact I had one dungeon run where a random DPS openly said he was going to make my life hell. He tried, but nothing he did bothered me even one bit. Near the end he sprinted ahead and pulled like 9+ mobs onto himself, turned around and there I was, having sprinted as well. Throw cover on him, HG'ed, flash, CoS, Flash, and tanked everything like a pro. When we were done he said "Why, why couldn't you just let me die?", to which I replied "Because, it's my job.". Got three comms from that run.

Other lesser rules.

2: Never stance dance unless it seems like the healers can handle it.

3: Need/greed only if I plan to use it, pass on everything else.

4: A left, B middle, C right, almost no one else will follow this so be skilled at changing on the fly.

5: Bring food, forget to use it most of the time. >.>

6: RNG numbers are a lie, how else can one fail an HQ mining 3 times in a row with a 96% chance. >.>

7: Reply nicely to any random tells. Yes that FC invite might have been a macro, but there is a human on the other end pressing the button.

9: Rule 8 isn't always true.

10: Yes, there was no rule 8.
