It it really weird that the discussion from a private group ends up being displayed in public forums. Kinda defeats the purpose of having a private group that requires requesting membership if anyone including people who are not members of the group can reply to discussions. Is there a way to fix that?

That shows up in that members feed, which all his/her friends can see and reply to, regardless of whether they are members of the group. Security seems to be an afterthought throughout the site. This is one of the least worrisome issues. John aka cobeachbum
