How many people that have a legitimate problem are going to voluntarily put themselves on a list like that?
Even if you said something like "once you are self aware enough of the problem to attend GA you are excluded" you might actually incentivize a few people to not attend GA because they don't really want to stop completely even though they are in trouble and know they need help.

When I played a lot of online poker before 2011, PokerStars and Full Tilt had large self-exclusion lists and, as far as I know, enforced them aggressively. You'd be surprised how many people are willing to do this-- indeed, it's encouraged by problem gambler support groups.
