WoW: Player leaves Mythic+ shortly before the end - with stupid reasoning

The WoW community has evolved over the years into a diverse bunch of casuals, "normal" fans and veterans, as well as hardcore players and pros. It's hard to avoid that problems sometimes arise when these groups clash. But some hardcore gamers overdo their optimization mania at the expense of their fellow players - like a member of reddit user Hogrim's Mythic+ group.

Hogrim reports on reddit that he was with his group in the Mythic+ dungeon Peaks of Ascension with keystone level +13 when the mage suddenly decides to leave the group seven minutes before the time limit expires - and apparently in the middle of combat, without warning, resulting in a group wipe. This would have been rude, but not unusual, if it had been foreseeable that the dungeon would no longer be completeable within the time limit. But that wasn't the case, because according to Hogrim, the group would have completed the dungeon within the limit.

The mage then also provided a very strange reason for leaving the group: the time it would have taken the group to complete the dungeon was not enough to increase his score on Raider.IO. So I guess the seven minutes of his life was too bad for him to complete the previous 30 minutes of the run to a satisfactory conclusion for the whole group.

In any case, the reddit community reacted appropriately sourly to the mage's behavior. Some are calling his behavior just plain stupid, while others are calling for measures like a blacklist. What do you think about it? Write us your opinion in the comments!
