Reposted because *someone* moved it to the wrong category.
This is about the [u]Ingame Fireteam Finder[/u], *NOT* the app or website.
There are a lot of "dead" listings in fireteam finder. By that I mean listings that are up for a long time and never change, accept applications, or have auto join set but the fireteam is already playing at capacity. This clogs up the fireteam finder list. Without naming, there's at least one listing up right now that has been there since *yesterday*
Solution 1: Simply delete listings after some fixed TTL, say 15-20 minutes.
Solution 2: Put a clock on listings that shows how long the listing has existed, so people know at least when a listing is probably dead.

My initial reaction to both solutions was pretty positive, and I would definitely like to see either added in as a pretty solid qol improvement. My only thought would be tbe less popular activities... the timescale could negativity affect someone trying to patiently get a game. Perhaps if someone has time to spare, then they may not mind having to resubmit lobbys ... but this needs to be crystal clear!
