What the heck is up with the Finch Forum?

Seems every time I turn around, some fool is posting porn in the Finch Forum. Isn't there some way of getting rid of this joker for good?

(Interesting choice -- to post porn in a forum designated for discussion of the one of the "smallest" birds that grace our planet. Ironic, don't you think? LOL)

I guess some people have nothing better to do. The sad part is there are allot of youngsters on BB that don't need to see this.

There are many places on the internet they can take there twisted mind. Again JMO

I've been trying to get Kevin to fix that forum so that won't happen anymore. I can't go into details but it is technically possible.

This has been addressed and fixed, I hope I was disturbed by the graphic pictures and videos, and yes, the fact that we have younger members seeing this crap! Heck, I was offended

They've not only started doing this on bird boards but in Pregnancy & Baby related forums too. I'm glad it's gone, poor Finches! :D

Finch owners can still happily post to Bird Talk. In fact, the Finch forum wasn't active enough anyway. Perhaps by asking general questions on the more active forum, more information can be exchanged.

The Finch forum porn was driving ALL of the mods nuts. It was never ending.

Actually the Finch Forum is still there. It's just been altered technically to keep the porn out. So far, so good!
