The solution for the fake tank problem!

Make a tank and play it for your daily dungeons!
Yes, you!

I see a lot of people complaining about fake tanks. But you know the most effective way to avoid a fake tank in a dungeon? Be the tank! If YOU are tanking the dungeon, in heavy armor, attribute points into health, taunts slotted, you will never have to deal with fake tanks ever again!

It's foolproof. There are no flaws with this plan. I am not taking questions at this time.

    I do. Then I get a fake healer who cries "but this is quicker" as he lays dead to basic spawn in Wayrest sodding 1 normal.

    Again, sorry Gary, but your DPS is rubbish and dead fake healers and tanks do not speed up dungeons.

    I think the reason people avoid tanking is because it's hard and there's a lot of pressure placed upon the tank to know exactly what to do and "lead" the group. A lot of people just aren't interested, and many aren't cut out for it.

    Meh, it's a pretty unenjoyable experience that way too. You get to the boss last, and find it's either already half-dead without your help or the entire group is lying on the ground and you have to fix the problem yourself. No one wants to do the mechs and they aren't good enough to skip them so you end up dead yourself from a one-shot that required another person to save you and now you have to watch the fight go by and you're waiting for the ghost-mode to end while they are rushing off to the next boss. Generally speaking, being a tank feels like a sixth wheel on a three-wheeler. Ten minutes later and you're wondering why you even queued for a dungeon if everyone hates them so much that they do everything in their power to avoid every aspect of them.
