RV or camping manners....
This is why I am posting this topic. We were parked in a RV/Resort type place. This only happened once in many years of RVing. We had friends over for burgers and eats. Just as we were sitting ...

We had friends over for burgers and eats. Just as we were sitting down to eat at our table in our yard around 4 or 5 PM in the afternoon....... Our next door neighbor dumped his black tank. It had a terrible smell. We all could not eat. The neighbor could see we had friends over and we're getting ready to eat!
I could understand if the man was getting ready to pull out but he did not leave for a week after this!
Maybe he didn't know any better but how could he not know this was not the right thing to do.
Isn't there a central dumping station?
If so does it show up on the campground's map?
When I camp near a dumping station or bathrooms' septic tank(against my will mind you, LOL) I know what to expect.
They said they were in a RV resort and the guy was dumping at his site. Not a dumping station.
With that said....
There could be many different reasons..
1) he didn't care
2) he didn't think it would cause an odor
3) his tank was full and he had to go real bad (maybe had diarrhea)
4) other reasons
But I do go with part of NYCgrrl's theory....you are camping. You are in a site that has sewer dump, so you have to take into consideration that someone may pull the black tank lever at any given time. No matter if you are present or not, eating or not....
