Duty finder lockout for not pressing ready, is this new?

[Cynfael]

Not only are trolls punished, but many simple misses over an excessive time of 24 hours as well. So no I most certainly do not mean amazing. I consider it one of the worst implementations SE has done so far.

If people are missing their queues this much, they are doing it wrong. I can see once, maybe twice, but if it's 3+ times per day, they are AFKing way too much.

That lockout may be inconveniencing a few, but it's saving many more the aggravation of watching their queue reset yet again as another player misses their window or decides to troll.

There are easy fixes for legitimate concerns. For example, many players crank up the volume while AFK so that they hear the confirmation window appear.
