Default Tank vs impatient DPS

Greetings,

So last night I was playing my Death Knight at level 64, Decided to
do Ramparts since I didn't do its quest, So I chose it in the group
finder and was in. Three of them were from the same guild, a mage,
priest, and a warlock while the druid was a random.

I decided to tank and things were smooth with the first few pulls,
then I decided to push a little and pull more. It went well but the
healer asked me to take it easy a bit since he is only level 58, I
complied and started making smaller pulls. I made careful pulls...
sometimes slow since there are a lot of groups positioned so close to
each other in this instance, then the dps started pulling other
groups, not patrolling groups since I manged to avoid pulling them but
stationary groups.

The mage and warlock took a few hits before I was able to draw enough
aggro out of them having frost orbs and death and decay on cooldown.

I didn't say anything but they started to whine about my gear... I
didn't respond to that and just kept on pulling groups until we have
done the first boss and went upstairs... They kept on whining all
along the way until we reached the hallway next to the stairs... There
is a group of 5 and I had them all on me.. Then the warlock pulled the
two stationary guards... I waiting until they killed both the warlock
and and mage and pulled them when they attacked the healer.

Of course the name calling began from all of them except for the
druid. I told them that first the healer asked for smaller pulls and I
did smaller pulls, then you two started pulling non patrolling mobs
while I was tanking five mobs so I decided that if you pull it you
tank it. Third, stop whining about my gear as you seem to be the
gearscore generation who think that gear = uberness. and fourth of all
if you don't like my tanking you can leave and whine with your
kindergarten buddies all night long. But then I noticed that most of
them are from the same guild... So I said, well it seems that vote
kick won't work for you, I am a tank and I get almost instant queue,
so I left the group and queued for Ramparts and instantly got a fresh
group, everything was smooth until shortly before the doomguard boss
the healer went dc and never heard from him, waited five minutes then
another five minutes after kicking him but no healer around... decided
to call it a day and try it tomorrow.

Now I remember why I hate 2 things, Tanking and playing Alliance.
