/e-peen growth in progress
Sure, tell me a hunter won't pull aggro if he 'goes nuts' on your Swipe target. Ok, you taunt back. And the rogue goes nuts on the other Swipe target... Really, when trying to grow an e-peen, at least state the actual conditions under which it happens (i.e. they go nuts on your main target(s) or you are talking about a boss fight).

A tank's job is saving lives by taking the damage. The idea being, you should be able to out threat them, reguardless where the damage is going. If you have 3 people attacking different targets, eh, one may die. I'll be damned if I can't keep 2 out of 3 targets on me reguardless of who is attacking it.
I have to say, having 3 targets, and assigning a dps to each would be an entertaining way to see how good your threat generation is. I've had a few times where I have to keep top threat on 2 targets, and run back and forth between the two, while making sure I hit the 2 off targets as well in 2 other locations because they are all casters, and haven't moved an inch from their scattered locations(DTK anyone? =).

Lol @ Gorefiend.
Anyway.
I think just a simple warning will do.
Haha, I remember when a DPS who kept pulling told me, "Hey, you're a great tank, ima add you to my friends list."
I responded with, "Hey, you're a crappy dps, if I wanted a near-death experience i'd go bungee-jump off a cliff." /ignore %t.
Another DPS, after I told him to go all-out and attack whomever. He was like, "If I wanted to tank, I'd respec. I wanna mash buttons, lemme mash buttons." It was then that I remembered that it's the tank's job to get everyone through as smoothly as possible, with as few deaths as possible. Leave the flashy crap to the DPS-ers, cuz I'm busy bulldozing through a pool of blood up to my waist.
oh, and foley: THE POWER OF CHRIST COMPELS YOU! :P
edit: whomever: Used as a direct object. Eng. teach'd be so proud....

To keep my tanks on their feet, I like to pop into bear form and taunt every now and then.

I find that just taunting them is not enough anymore. So lately I've been taunting then running around, make sure you pop out of bear form after you taunt, because you might actually end up being able to tank, making your actual tank to begin having self esteem issues.
