> Just what exactly *IS* tanking?

	This is the beauty of combat, if you can code it (which i have no idea
unfortunatly, but will have to look into it).
the TANK or tanking is the dude that is currently taking ALL THE HITS FROM
MOBS. That means that the person who is tank will suffer from all damage
(unless it is a room / area effect spell) and that he is thus 'protecting'
all the other members. 

How the tank is determined in a group when a mob decides to attack a group,
well .. I'm not sure .. Jeremy, Chris or Daniel? Any suggestions?
