All The Tropes Wiki Project, Part XX

... Bad news: Social Profile's Friend/Foe stuff is still unable to be excised via the backend (the settings don't work well apparently to disable things due to the way the extension was written), so I'm planning to thumb through the code and try disabling it via some CSS hacks. It's a ghetto solution, but the best I can do on my end. I also asked them to tweak a few other things to deter spammers from trying to sneak past Moderation using SocialProfile (Moderation only works for certain namespaces and the User Profiles of SP are not covered by its remit), which is theoretically possible. ...

I know I've asked this before, but considering it's now becoming a time sink, I'm going to ask again:

Why do we even use Social Profile?

I don't see anything in it that contributes to our core mission.
