Could not find where to post bugs, so i will post it here.
If you are a new player quickmatch button in menu occasionally will put you on empty servers. But the real problem is that you will be kicked from this servers in 30 seconds because some of them are running comp mod with requirement of 40 hours playtime. Really odd behavior from my point of view, probably a bug.

    There is a request for this feature on CDT Trello:
    https://trello.com/c/dbD6R0Fl/494-create-a-central-server-to-joinup-quickjoin-requests

    So i hope CDT will implement better "quickjoin" one day.

    Your link points towards something which would be part of a matchmaking system. The issue you describe in the opening post is not really a bug, just showing how ineffective the current filter algorithm can be based on your personal parameters ( location, playtime, skill ).

    There are plans to replace it with a better algorithm pretty soon: https://trello.com/c/J7rv3AIv/693-use-ratings-instead-of-filter-algorithm-for-play-now

    Can't wait to get new update!
    Right now quickjoin works for me correctly only 1 out 5 tries. So almost any quickjoin system will do better :)
