Constructive criticism is valuable for every class and every role, but if you yell at a DPS because the fight is taking longer than what you wanted because the damage numbers are lower, that can very well be seen as harassment. The DPS is there, and is working to take the group to the win. Players whose only fault is poor ilvl equipment should not be put on the same level of those who neglect using certain skills altogether, or afking, or disregarding instructions.
I agree although in regards to ilvl i feel thats more of an issue of both inaccurate ilvl checks at times and the lack of more ilvl 90+ content.

When you toss an ilvl 60 DPS up against an ilvl 100+ DPS in an ilvl 60-ish dungeon i'd hardly call it fair for the either of them. the ilvl60 DPS becomes the scapegoat for any DPS check mechanics that fail and the ilvl 100+ DPS feels like they're carrying everything because well... they kinda are at that point.
