So much this! As a longtime tank in three of the four tanking classes, I have to say, the problem isn't the role, it's the players. Just go to the tanking forum: New tanks are terrified not of the responsibility, but of the outlash they will likely get if they fail. And stating you're a new tank at the get-go gives you a roughly 50% chance that at least one of your players will just drop group then and there.

Tanking is a lot of fun, but I hate tanking for random dungeon groups. It's the only role where I feel like I'm fighting against my group, not the monsters.
