I love Classic WoW, but please understand, I'm a terrible tank!

My tanking strategy as Arms/Fury at low-levels, which probably is far from ideal:

1) Pull the mobs - use line-of-sight to pull ranged mobs closer.
2) Use Blood Rage once you are in-combat.
3) Use Taunt as a last-ditch effort spell in order to pull aggro off of healers or DPS. Also helpful to get aggro if a ranged DPS engages before you get a first hit.
4) Spam Shield Block/Revenge on single targets. Sunder Armor is also good.
5) Spam Battle Shout with an occasional Demoralizing Shout to generate threat on multiple mobs at once/large pulls.
6) Be proactive - try to anticipate which mob will de-aggro you and instead aggro a healer or DPS.
