Or that's the reason I recall hearing. Maybe a staff member can explain more fully. I don't see that happening at the other forum I frequent, but then that forum is a considerably smaller target and seems less afflicted with spammers and trolls in general.
For reasons having to do with administration of the forum, staff are immune to this feature. "Bloody favorites!"
I don't see that as a problem anywhere else.
And staff have opted out of explanations.
