well tanks tend to be leaders cause thats the roles tanks play in the game  so they have to be

That reminds me of the age old question "which came first, the chicken or the egg?".  In other words are the people who choose to play tanks in game do so because they have "leader" personality traits in RL or are they average people who take on "leader" traits because game mechanics force them to?  Even more interesting to me is the tank that doesn't want to be the group leader and prefers to take orders.  Why would a submissive person choose the role of tank?

I'm kind of an odd duck I guess cause most the groups I'm in I wind up taking control as leader regardless of the class I'm playing.  Honestly, I don't typically set out to do it either.  If the group leader or person forming the group doesn't appear to know what they are doing I'll make a few suggestions and before long the group is just following my command.
