wonder why it's not enabled on mse?It is if the option for a user/group is enabled via the AdminCP.
Clearly, it's not enabled here on MSE.

For 99.9% of people it's arguably of little or no use, so I suppose you could ask "why have it?" instead?
It's normally best to keep the user options as simple as possible. Cuts down on confusion and hassle for people who are not initially familiar with how the forums work.
It can be handy for admin accounts where occasionally they might want to be logged in without that status being apparent or their activity followed. But that's about all I can think off.....Free/impartial debt advice: National Debtline | StepChange Debt Charity | Find your local CAB
