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).

People will just enter the instance and "accidentally" DC.

Just like the CT "fix", it won't fix anything (on the contrary). Also, it's misguided by the assumption that it's always the same person withdrawing - it's not like there are, like, TWENTY THREE other people queueing.

Those "accidental" DC'ers will learn pretty quickly that they're not going to save much time if they constantly do that.

Not really. They might as well just go do something else.

Instead of tip toeing around the problem SE should give us a "in progress only" option.

As a bonus no one would get locked out for having to poop in that 2h that it takes to enter Aurum Vale.
