Miriamele is on a distinguished road
Actually, most of the tanks I see are indeed fighters, but I don't think tank is automatically synonymous with fighter. I've seen some excellent clanks, tarchers, and even a rare good mank or two. It just sucks when fighters won't step up to the plate and tank when some of them can do it better than any other standing toon in a KQ.

Lol, in a GH, the fighters wouldn't mock and I ended up clanking a lot. I asked them why they wouldn't and they said "because my dmg makes me hold aggro". Seconds later, I was clanking because they were too dim-witted to figure out that I drew more aggro than they did. Ugh. I even had to clank the robber boss too. And they couldn't get aggro back from me, even if they tried kicking, haha.

Edit: Just had a really bad KKP experience. I was experiencing major lag due to all the AoE animations and my client would hang for several seconds (10-20). I asked if anybody else would tank, since I was having problems. And nobody else would. There were other fighters there but not one of them stepped up to tank. And I'm a lvl 70 fighter with a 60 shield, I mean, come on -_-. There's gotta be someone out there who could do it better than me. We actually did end up winning and I did receive my spoils, but I burned two sets of scrolls in the process...
