How many people were you actually queueing with? Or more precisely, was the tank who wasn't pushing the button actually in your party already?

If someone in your party doesn't click the button AND it's not a full party (i.e. some people are coming from duty finder), everyone in the party gets the strike. 3 strikes and you get the 30 minute ban as you see. It might sound unfair that you get a strike because a party member made the mistake, but I think the incentive is because it then pressurises that person to change their behaviour because more people are on their back/upset with them for their temporary ban from PF because of them.
