I'll never level my DK. He (actually have 2- one horde one ally) will always be at 55. There are too many of them. And they are a noob class (took that spot from hunters). 90% of them can't tank worth a sh*t, and are completely inept at everything. I don't want to be associated with that.
Funny story, that. Not only is that the only reason I'm even leveling my DK, it was the entire reason for my rolling a Shaman.
Back when TBC first released I rolled a brand new Pally to level (had been on hiatus), and was unfortunately forced to do so alongside the hundreds of emerging Alliance Shaman. And they all sucked. None of them could control their threat, none of them bothered buffing with totems, of course none of them wanted to heal... It was a disaster. But I saw a lot of potential in the class, so I figured, "Hell, if no one else is gonna do this class justice then ***** it. I'll do it myself."
12 months later here I am going through the exact same bull!@#$ with DK's. They're everywhere and they're all of them terrible. With my Shaman at 80 seeing no further upgrades outside of raids, I'm one of maybe three properly specced and geared tank DK's on my server that I've seen, and I still out-DPS most of the DPS DK's with my DPS gear on.
