Tanks that have been retired for 5 years continue to get xp, continue to get better, and will always be used over someone else. This is a huge problem. One can always 2 box their character and some other retired character. I just really wish they could find a way to end this cycle. Lock the account, send an email to the original email asking them to log in and unlock their account. That would get rid of a few of the big names at least clearing the way for some new folks to be able to do stuff.
I do not see this as being an issue. There are maybe a handful of tanks that are doing this, but I have seen a fair share of new up and coming tanks. Look at Kraizik, Moraelin, Zioni, Khandra, Laisia and I am sure I have missed some that are not old/retired toons just being recycled. Sure there are a few out there that may fall into this category but at the same time that is the choice of the ppl in the group / person boxing the tank. Furtheremore, if it were not for some of these older toons there is a bunch of the population that would not be able to find groups b/c they are either looking for a tank or a healer. I can count at least 10 times in the last 3 weeks I have been ooc'ing for a healer and ended up soloing/duoing or camping b/c I couldn't find one.
