I've rarely seen this happen to be fair. Tanks are pretty easy to play effectively and problems usually only arise when they are undergeared compared to the rest of the party.

Now DPS on the other hand, a category where there are so many truly awful players that have no idea what they are doing, don't get noticed so much if they fail horribly. I've done more damage in dungeons on my SCH (while simultaneously healing) than some full i90 DRGs and MNKs, but the only way to know if they screwed up is to use a parser, which we're apparently not allowed to do.
