Hi all,
I have hit lvl 80 with my DK frost tank and having a blast. Nice break from my raiding ele shm. Grinding heroics and almost have 3rd piece of T9. However, I get so much $%^& as soon as the dps and healer see I am a frost tank in the random dungeon que, and I have to literally fight just for them to keep me in. Believe it or not, about half the time they do not give me a chance and boot my ass from group before our first pull. I have learned quite a bit and the ones who keep me say "wow! nice job tank!" at the end of the dungeon.
Getting used to it now and roll my eyes when I run into that situation with ignorant people. But props to the peeps who have been around since the start and dealing with all this #$%^.
I appreciate all the information you all put out here to help get DK's reputation out of the !@#$hole.
Thanks!
After 17 minutes queued for a Random Heroic, I wouldn't kick a Tank until he totally showed himself to be the Suck. Something about waitng 30+ minutes for 2 Frost and 2-3 Triumph has made me much more tolerant.

People groan at you when they see a Frost DK tank. Thats a new one. I have a restodruid and a frost DK tank and I only groan when I see a blood DK tank in heroics. I know I am going to usually end up healing the dps more than the tank. I'd rather have a 30K frost tank than a 60k blood tank in heroics.

Common thing now that i see is Tanks choosing to DPS in blood spec tanking instead of in their tanking gear.
As a healer, i kinda like it.. it's more of a challenge for me to keep his dumbass alive.
I guess it depends on the makeup of the group.. TOo many L33T people out there complaining about anything they can.
My buddy on his DK DPS gets booted all the time from randoms because they think his DPS should be higher then 2.9k in less then T9 gear.
!@#$ happens...
