It's not responsibility that they don't want to deal with, it's getting chewed out by players with bad attitudes because everyone thinks they know what the tank/healer should be doing, despite not being prepared top play it themselves. They just don't want to deal with that after dealing with actual responsibilities all day so it's easier to wait in a slightly longer queue and just pew pew while nobody takes any notice.

In truth I've had very little aggravation while playing tanks but players who aren't used to tank/healer roles see it as too easy to get flamed.

That's my 2c, for what it's worth.
Hence why I brought up the abuse. I get crapped on if i don't wall pull, i get crapped on if someone dies, etc. It's old. The two, abuse and responsibility, go hand in hand. You're expected to do perfectly while the DPS can do a horrible job and if one of them dies it's your fault.
