Amazing what 1 week can do

Good news! Once again I have been recruited! After my last guild asploded over petty bickering I spent the past few months taking a wow break. I came back and laid low for a while, stopped playing my decently geared warrior and started on my Blue geared dk. It was a lot of fun, leisurely gearing up in heroics and naxx 10. I knew what I was doing and really was just there to help out my friends.

However this was not to last. My frequent running of heroics and naxx 10 pugs apparently...

To ninja...

I do not know if this is a common thing, but the frequency it has happened to me in the past month has driven me almost to the point of rage.

Ninjas. As a tank i know that when i run 5 mans, that dps has priority on dps gear. tanks have first dibs on tank gear etc. Is this an uncommon thought because since toc has come out I have had no loss than 5 tank pieces drop that were needed on by dps. Four of the five times they were in all pvp epics doing less than 1k dps.

two tanks, I has options

I have an 80 dk tank naxx ten geared and an 80 warrior naxx 25 geared. I am good with both and cant decide which to pursue with the new patch.
my dk will need more work to be big raid viable but all in all I'm not worried about a raid spot if I get the gear. I have the skill to raid tank with either, If just torn on which to use
The frost dk
or
the prot warrior.

About 2 months ago I took a break from wow. I'm still on that break but last night I logged on to say hi to people. Within 5 min of logging on i was not only swamped by tells, but got invited to an old friends guild.

They asked me if I wanted to do a quick heroic run with them, Its been 2 months since i tanked so i told them i would come as a dps. Being away for so long I didn't want to fail at tanking, pride at stake and all that.

So we get the group together and guess...

Last weekend my guild had a fight of epic proportions over the usual stupid crap that always crops up in guilds, loot. Things got out of hand, tempers flared and within a few hours the guild was in ruins. Most of the core raiders inctuding officers left and the gm decided to take a break from the game.

As i sat there confused at what had just happened, wondering what to do i was approached by several of the raiders and asked if i would be interested in being the GM of a new guild. At...
