So i was playing with a friend and we were trying to get into a lobby. Unfortuantly the AU servers are always full! But, we still got into a game, 20 seconds later, KICKED for a premium member. I spam click the sign and get back into the server, eager to play. 40 seconds later, KICKED AGAIN for a premium member. I am still hopfull for a game. I continue to spam click the sign. I get into a game. The timer is counting down. This is it, IM GOING TO GET INTO A GAME! With 4 seconds left on the lobby timer, KICKED FOR PREMIUM MEMBER AGAIN! By the time i get a chance to spam click the signs again, its to late, they are in pre-game...

Anyone else having these problems?

It's because you don't have donor and you're the last one to join the lobby, therefore making you vulnerable for someone to kick you. Donors kick the last non donor in the lobby.

I am aware of that...

I don't have this problem because I am a donor, but I use to. Just try and catch the games restarting and spam click. The thing is the donors payment supports the server and without donors there would be no servers. So you can see why donors get priority, but good luck in finding a server and keep persisting. You could always try US. You may get a bit of lag, but for me it is still playable. Happy Hunger Games and may the odds be ever in your favour!

(Did you see what I did there! ^)

Well keep persisting in AU! If you are desperate you could donate. I live in WA so I would always play late when most of the east coast would be in bed so I got into most games. If you live in WA you could try the same thing.

Sometimes I go into games with 3 of my friends that are all non-donors and we get in fine. Just keep trying and also choose restarting servers.

I've been having a harder time to get into AU servers at the minute, not a huge difference, but enough to be noticeable. That's only because it's school holidays, and players have more time on their hands.

I still find that it's pretty easy to get into a game without being kicked. Instead of spamming full servers, wait until one is restarting. If you get in fast enough, there will be less chance of getting kicked.

They're not full all of the time anyway, only at times such as 5-7pm, and on weekends, especially Sunday. I did make a thread on getting us more servers, but as stated by blakew447, adding more servers to regions other than US and EU is expensive, and with the number of players the AU has at the minute it's not really worth adding more.

I will give you some advice :) 1st When you see a server restarting spam click it so then you probably will make it in. 2nd This isn't advice really but you might consider donating for a rank so you can play sg and join lobbys when full.

Have a nice day,

There is nothing to do about this, except for buying donor yourself...
