I think the idea of lockouts is overkill. I can't get my guildies to do monster missions now, and for the Halloween one, I went out of my way to make sure that everyone who wanted a skelly mask, got a skelly mask. As a result, I ended up with over 10 of those Bristlebane cards at the end: each one of those was worth about 2/3 of an AA. Even for cheap AA with no risk, folks wouldn't come help spend those cards. The worst was one who quit the mission shortly after starting and announced in /gu he was lfg: because he couldn't play his fingerwiggler in the monster mission. How the f did he get to 70?
Now for Creators. Oh Lordy! If that mission broke, I think 75% of the folks doing DoN would never go back to the expansion. The expansion has been out, what? 6 months? Longer? I still haven't completed Grimblax, but I've gotten over 1k crystals from Creators alone.
Sponging exp? Is that some new crime? How many people do you think box more than one toon because they're sick to death of LFG? The most I've ever seen boxed at once was 14. And he had his own little guild to play with himself.
