It doesn't take a white knight to defend this addition. I have disliked the way SE has implemented many things, most notably vanity and housing, but I love this lockout. In fact when I first read the patch notes I thought it meant after three strikes you would be locked out for the entire remainder of the day. Sadly, it's only 30 mins.

Seriously, if you miss your queue or withdraw after the party is formed three times in a single day you obviously have no respect for others. I don't see any need for polishing or changes, unless it's to make the penalty more severe. It baffles me that people are actually complaining about a 30 min lockout when they couldn't be bothered to pay attention to their queue for 30 mins to begin with.
