Please! Can you stop advertising in lfg if the map is full and you write full into your description?

It's misleading and has no purpose anyways when you write full in your description. Either remove it or then don't host it in the first place!Why advertise for a full map and even put full in the description?! Stop putting misleading crap into lfg!I wish there was a way to report that properly.

People in the full instance can either leave of disconnect, the "full" description is just a way from the commander to tell you you can join squad and insist trying to join the map but it won't be guaranteed.

This can get annoying when metas are new and several maps are created, but in general it is a courteous way of handling full maps. Pulling the listing down is particularly frustrating if there is only one map available; you may often get in by trying over a few minutes as non meta players leave the map.

Two reasons. People from the same map can still see it and join through lfg. Map being full now doesn't mean it will be full later. If you are patient and persistent often you can get in later.

This should not be up to the user.

The system should do the following:If you are on the same map, show it in LFR.If you are on a different map, hide it in LFR.Add a status for the group to let them know the map is full.

I see no issue with listing maps as full in lfg and do it myself. There are several resons why;-Main one being bottlenecking is a thing, so while a map may appear full, there are still spaces and people can continue to join if they wait-If someone wants to try their luck and spam to join a full map, I think its fine to give them the option to do that-Maps fill up very fast but people still do leave slowly.

It is more courteous to mark it full than make it appear to have spaces in lfg. Listing a full map when squad has space is not in any way against TOS so i see no reason to report it.

I'll always leave the squad immediatly once I notice it's full because I'm just too anxious and paranoid to stay in any squad for long. People might judge me for no reason. This is also why I tend to avoid lfg overall but for metas I HAVE to use it because people on the maps I end up with are too lazy or unskilled.This is why I hate misleading titles in lfg because I hate to stay in one squad for long.Also I'm currently perma offline due to people harassing me or being toxic and I might get kicked instantly anyways because of my status. Yes, I know I can block them but for that the blocklist must be extended because I always hit the limit and I'd have to simply block everyone to feel comfortable playing again.

Cant expect tag to keep editing lfg every few mins. If its full you can still join and spam new instance until somebody on the map dcs or a new lfg opens. I really don't see how this is a problem.

No changes are needed for this in the LFG function. When someone puts up a meta in the LFG it should stay up as long as that person has it open. The "system" should do nothing about the listing. People leave and join constantly so if the system were to check and say instance is full take down all LFG for that instance then a group of non-meta players leave does the system put the listing back up? Is the person who posted the listing supposed to be able to tell in some way that he should relist?

I hate when commanders do this because sometimes the game disconnects you. Imagine doing a meta for 2 hours, then disconnecting and not being able to get back in because the commander left the squad in LFG and some rando joined and took your spot. They should lock the map after a set period of time like in Dragon's Stand or make it so that once the map is full the LFG only works again when the map is down to like 85% of capacity, which is still more than enough to do any meta in this game.
