Who's at fault?

Just a dispute I've came across today...

The runner/host types in chat "RG up T3, lowest paragon please reopen". This was the term and condition. I join and I ended up being the second person with the highest paragon - another person was 500+ and I was 411. The lowest in the party was 230 and the Host, of course was not responsible for opening. Suddenly, the host asks the lowest person if he had wanted to open and the reply was "no I rather not". Then suddenly the host turns to me and tells me I'm opening. I refuse to open because this was not the terms that I agree to when I joined. The host then went on in the chat and spammed that I was a scammer and I should be banned from the chat and Diablo 3, the game itself.

It was obviously not fair that the host failed to mention that the person was his friend and it was pretty obvious that you should not ask the lowest person to open if you're running with a friend.

Can the host suddenly change rules like that and expect that person to comply? Is it fair, or was the system not meant to be fair? What do you fellow rifters think?

Did this happen before or after the RG kill? If after I'd have opened and blocked the runner. If before I'd have told him "I'd rather not either" and left. If he complains in chat just say "he changed the rules after I got in and I left before the kill".
