"Advertising" in the chat seems necessary if a team is needed to join a specific tournament

Issue: In any arena tournament it is almost guaranteed that someone asks "how to join this".
I guess some mobile browsers etc. might have trouble to show the requirements to join a tournament that I always see above the chat in my non mobile Firefox browser.

I really dislike that people don't see it (which is clearly an issue, it happens routinely) and "advertising" for exactly the one tournament for which the specific chat window is intended still does not allow to share the link.

Ideas:
1.) Would it be esasy to allow any tournament chat to "advertise" the one or two exact links that are needed to join the required tournament team link and the required tournament link itself,
so each tournament chat shall not filter out any required links to join, be it the tounament itself or the neccessary team?

2.) Would it be easy to copy-paste some other URL that shows the tournament requirements and is whitelisted in the chat of exactly this one tournament?

No, you can see it, it is just that people don't have common sense nowadays.

Just saying, whenever anyone designs an interface, it is wise never to assume people had common sense. My almost 900 played arenas tell me it is a big issue.

Yep, but the requirements to join can still be seen on mobile browsers
