I am getting tired of this Blizzard-Bashing. Really. They openly said they planned us to be Offtanks/AOE-Tanks in BC and given that fact, we were really competitive at the end. And we were good in that role. Seldom there is a ZA timed run without a Prot Paladin. Seldom guilds go into Hyjal withou one.

Now, much to our delight, they strife to make tanks even. There will be differences, between the tanks, and I still expect to see some fights where other tanks are better suited, just like there will be fights where it is the other way round.

They already gave us tools for maintanking we have been urging to get for years (Thunderclap + Shield wall) simply because it was very difficult to do the job without them. We even got convenience abilities like the interrupt, just today.

So, they now start to tweak the numbers. They said they will be looking in simulated fights how much damage the tanks get, how much threat they do, and will tweak that accordingly.

So, why do we still complain ? I'm really tired. Please, stop it or continue in the official forums, but let us focus on analyzing the situation and talking about possible improvements and mechanisms, but really lets stop that useless ranting. They said they will make sure we can MT (for te first time in WoW), lets help them now and later hold them against their promise.
