Although we do use a hosting service for the website, it's a general website host, not a specific forum host (those are bad). This gives us all the flexibility that we would have if we were running the website on our own servers. (We do not run the website on our own servers so we have our services separated out, in case one goes down, the website and the Mumble are still online.)

SMF is just our forum software, like phpBB, XenForo, IPBoard, etc to name a few others. These are things that are able to be installed on to any webserver that can support it (PHP, some sort of database server, etc). Our installation of SMF is quite customized with various things, and the user popularity thing can be disabled, we've just never had an issue big enough to warrant disabling it.

If there's enough people who don't want it there, we can disable it though.
