Don't do this. This makes your job more difficult.
Use taunt as needed (when the mob loses interest in you), follow it with a kick.
AFAIK begging does nothing for threat generation, but I've never tried/tested TBH.
and in terms of raw DPS - it's tough to beat a staff of battle from 20-45ish or so (for the price).

The bold cannot be over stated. There are two times when you should be mashing taunt:
1. You're soloing and you need to skill it up.
2. You lost aggro and are trying to regain it.
In case #2 the mash should end once you regain aggro. While the mob is beating on you, you never should be using your Taunt button.
Anyone who tells you it gets you 1 point of aggro or whatever they'll say, ignore them, they are being dumb. Whatever hypothetical benefit that has does not outweigh the cost of having taunt down and being unable to use it for several rounds while the mob beats on your cleric or enchanter, and you can do nothing but hope you proc to pull aggro back.
