X2 on the flies. Gray water also has an odor to it and the rest of the campground does not need to smell the odor because of one persons laziness.
Gray water that has been in a holding tank can stink almost as bad as the black tank contents. But gray water coming out of a pop-up is likely fresh from the sink, and wouldn't smell any more than a sink full of water does when you wash dishes or wash your hands. And it shouldn't smell on the ground any more than what results after a person washes a vehicle...
It is possible that these campers simply did not or do not know that you can purchase totes to drain the gray water into to transport to a dump station. I wouldn't have been quick to jump on them, but I would have approached them in a friendly manner to suggest they change their practices.
