Describe the bug
x-posting from curseforge comments.
Hi, I might have found the reason why some people have their game constantly re-joining the LFG chan each time they log in and have it set to /1.
I had this issue for a very long time so i decided to look into the addon files and found that the french localisation traductor made a mistake in the LFG chan french name, he named it "RechercheDeGroupe" instead of "RechercheGroupe". I've corrected the name on my file and made some test, no more issue.
The error is line 252 in the "Localization" file, if people with other langage wow client have a similar issue I suggest to take a look to every translation of the LFG chanel name

correct localization can be found at https://wago.tools/db2/ChatChannels?build=1.15.2.54092&locale=frFR
it should be "RechercheGroupe"
No other translations for this channel seem to be wrong just french.
@Vysci, I just noticed that issue is because classic era and cata (wotlk at the time) use different names for the LFG channel.
See here https://wago.tools/db2/ChatChannels?build=4.4.0.54137&locale=frFR&sort[ID]=asc and the table linked in intial comment.
In 4.4.0 its "RechercheDeGroupe" and in 1.15.2 its "RechercheGroupe".
This is easily fixable, since i already have the correct name being used in Localization.lua which gets the correct version from the game client itself with the EnumerateServerChannels function:
Its just a matter of deleting all the manual translated entries for lfg_channel and letting the addon use the value from the preLocalizedFallbacks table. (L#838)
