Thus that page is a very simplistic look at what's happening around the forum and left pretty "light" by design. Every feature and check introduces a tradeoff, permissions being a big one.

This may not be ideal for all sites of course but if you have voting going on for highly protected areas, that introduces a number of other potential issues as well (like the fact that admins can see votes), you'll want to turn off that page, profile stats and of course, vote tracking.
