The expression "join requests" should be replaced with "invite requests" if they are in the context of joining a world instance. (Note. "join requests" is also used in the context of joining a Group.)
See the attached image. I believe These "join requests" means "invite requests". And there seems to be no explanation of this term in docs. So, it should be revised.
