They are just trying to explain what they have no control over, please remember these moderators didn't make that decision and some amount of our staff wants it back just as bad as you do.
However, as OTD said - it really is pretty straight forward and has been explained several times in the past.
It was removed for security reasons - yes. We know that breach has passed and is no longer an issue.
That is not why it was not reinstated.
Short answer - it was a battle to get it installed to begin with, a battle I (eventually) won after voicing what I was seeing the community wanted, over and over. Rob, the owner, finally agreed and put it on. When the security deal hit, we had to remove it quickly in a moment of panic - and now there will be no convincing to bring it back. Not so much BECAUSE of the security deal, but more because he didn't want to do it in the first place.
Especially since, yes, we now have an app in the works to provide that functionality. It is still a ways away but it is getting there.
This is not the moderators' decision. This is not my decision. It is Rob's, and he has been
very clear with me that it is not coming back. I respect what he has decided. Unfortunately I'm the one that has to relay it here but that's part of my job.
I've made it clear to him that some have asked for it back, and when it flares up every so often I mention it that to him as well. I will mention this thread I'm sure.
But I will not push for it. He has said no several times and is tired of hearing about it from me.
Sorry for the inconvenience. If you have more to say about it - your best bet is to PM
Rob directly.
Thanks.
