Killed the adds because of the lack of DPS, not everyone is Ilvl65+ to just burn the boss.
So, due to lack of DPS, you had the DPS stop DPSing the boss so they could instead DPS adds? That doesn't really make a lot of sense. As long as the tank can grab and hold aggro and the healer can keep him alive, there's zero reason to ever ask the DPS to kill those adds. It's a waste of time and could cause you to lose due to the boss closing in before the DPS can get him down.
