    I've always felt that "rage quit" is a bit of a misnomer. It's true for some people, but for myself and others.... there's no rage, just resignation that the party isn't getting this done/going anywhere. So we quit, no enmity towards others in the party, and go do something else (in or out of game) for 30 minutes.

    That said.... sorry OP, but I would never throw someone from my FC or LSs under the bus by asking them to step into 'those' parties.

    Same. To me a ragequit is when someone is obviously upset/angry and it causes them to abandon the duty. Going off on a vitriolic rant and then leaving the party is a good example. Even leaving after a certain boss because your item didn't drop isn't really ragequitting to me. It's just quitting. Saying "this is my last try, if we don't get to (mechanic) I'm out," isn't a ragequit either. It's just resignation to the fact that the party isn't making any progress and a feeling of having your time wasted. I think the word "ragequit" gets thrown around too much anymore.

    Very much this. Just because someone left the party during a dungeon run, doesn't automatically mean they rage quitted it. Personally still find it annoying myself, unless they take a moment to explain why they have to go. Only place where I just shrug so far if people suddenly quit the dungeon is during WoD, when the piece of gear they want doesn't drop. Happens so much that I actually expect it per WoD run now.
