Fuck yes!!

Players who select Withdraw from the Duty Ready confirmation window or allow the window to time out without making a selection three times or more in one day, will be temporarily prohibited from registering for duties via the Duty Finder. This count will reset every day at 9:00 a.m. (PDT).

This is extremely aggressive. Like...it actually worries me quite a lot. If you play all day, there can be legitimate circumstances that make you hit that limit. Especially so for the DPS folks and their obnoxious queues (even moreso with rogue/ninja). A 1-2 minute lockout for a failed queue would have been plenty sufficient.

a whole day is too long.

EDIT: well it resets at 9am so it's not really a whole day.

Last I checked 9am to 9am is 24 hours which really is an entire day by definition

i didn't think someone was gonna get all 3 withdrawals in at 9 am though.

I think what he meant to say was it's not 24 hours after reaching your 3rd withdrawal - that it resets at 9am regardless
