    Thought they would have put that back by now. Maybe a little bump will help, maybe.

    It's been nicer without it. Less people crapping on each other because they have more experience than someone else in the thread. Better to focus on the quality of the post, rather than how the driver with 5 years experience hasn't seen as much as the driver with 8 years.

    True enough. Personally I'd still like to see it though.

    Should disable the default site being served on https and configure the content security policy header. Installing an SSL cert and enabling https site-wide may improve search rankings while preventing ISP's from doing man-in-the-middle ad injecting like Comcast is known for.

    I agree with you, there are clear benefits to going https and it's a goal, but it's not easy. Being a forum, we have lots of stuff posted on here by users from 3rd-party sources that aren't https. We can switch ourselves over easy enough, but users will get unsecured content pop-ups on many pages. I'll keep looking at the solutions available for us, and when something comes along that fits and is well-tested we'll make the transition.

    I'd really like it if there was a feature to kick unwanted followers off your profile and stop any ability for those users to watch your activity.

    There isn't a good tool for that on the market, unfortunately.
