How can I post a looking for group, but keep people from contacting me?

NitroPanzerjagr · Sep 29, 2023

I'm usually posting information about gameplay and helpful hints to players. But I get a lot of harassing messages on the post from the looking for group. I'd like to maintain some control over whether or not they can contact me or not without having to block every single person on the game. So there has to be a setting somewhere in Xbox to stop them from commenting on my looking for group post and make them stop sending me text messages without blocking my ability to post a looking for group message.

The term LFG is "Looking for Group" it literally in the name of what it is. People make groups to play the game with that's how people get together. I could understand if it was advertising for something random or asking people to follow them on social media but it's a post that is used to :Look for a group" on the "Looking for group: forum
