This was when the boss was almost dead and the dps started pulling the next wave already. I can only hope they learned something from the ordeal. After we wiped because the dps decided to stop dpsing the boss, their attitude was: "you have a taunt button". They promptly booted me from the group, which pretty much ruined the instance for everyone. my experience with tanking in a PUG was half decent and half awful.
