Because neither he nor the group died. They were perfectly capable of
4-manning BFD without a tank. At least on the one boss I did sit down and
watch.

So I left.

Killing that last boss completed the last dungeon quest I still needed in
there. I didn't feel like wasting 20 more minutes with this group. Just
requeueing and instantly getting a new group is a much more pleasent way to
to get XP and drops :)

I was hoping that they would take a while to find a new tank and maybe die
in the meantime so they would feel the "He told us so" moment :)

It wouldn't have been very enjoyable.
