Default Paladin hate

Why so much hate against paladin tanks? I know that warriors are kings of tanking raid content and rightfully so. But I read a lot of negative towards paladin vs warrior/SK tanking. I have a 19 pally as my main right now and I would think the buffs and lay on hands would be welcome along with snap agro. I know LoH has already saved a few CRs for people I've grouped with.
I guess I just dont understand the major downside.

I've found the opposite to be true. Pallys and SKs can hold a ton of aggro (and have other utility) in groups way better than warriors can. Once you get to the raid scene though, warriors have more pure AC/HP and thus are king for CH rotations. I've found pallies and SKs to be equally desired in groups though. Maybe you're running into the hybrid exp penalty stigma?

I always enjoy having a paladin in the group. Stuns can be huge versus all the casting and gating mobs in Kunark, lay hands is an amazing emergency button and if by some twist of fate your cleric dies somehow and be bound on another continent, you have at least some form of rez if getting another cleric to your camp would take forever. Also, although it's not 100% effective, haveing a tank that can split a camp all by himself if he has to (with lull) is pretty badass.

Paladins are fucking amazing...I played something different during my time as a player here, and I regretted it constantly. That's why I'm a paladin now [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Read the title, and figured I would let you know, paladin armor doesn't drop in hate.
