I'm all for taking a break when you're frustrated. That being said (and without having any idea what happened in this particular instance), keep in mind that there's always two sides to a story, and you don't necessarily know what the other guy saw.

For example, more than once I've walked into an area and seen someone in my PK. I start running to where they are, but by the time I get there, they're linkdead. In that case I'm probably going to wait around a minute and see if they reconnect.

Also keep in mind that it's not always the case that you appear linkdead to CF, even if you appear linkdead to you -- so even if you're thinking, "I was LD for five minutes, this guy had to know all of my spells would be down", that's not necessarily the case.
