Hi folks -

My group has a game that a couple people have been joining/leaving regularly, over and over. It's getting really annoying and I've received several requests from people in this game to get those people to stop, as we're all getting really tired of the notification spam. I've asked them to stop and they haven't.

I'm aware that marking a game as 'group only' only impacts the search results, and that once someone has a link to the game they're able to do whatever they wish. I have spoken with a friend of mine who is in Girls of Destiny, and she indicated that they often have similar problems - that is, someone stalks one of their members' profiles to find group only games and joins them.

From what I can tell, marking a game as 'group only' or 'friends only' only impacts search results - once someone has a link to the game, they're free to join regardless of the fact that they are neither friends of the creator nor members of the group.

If I mark a game as 'group only', I'm not saying 'let anyone join once they have a link', I'm saying 'I only want people in my group to be able to sign up - possibly even to see the game in the first place.

I know I've posted about this before, but it continues to be problematic.
