[meta-tag:status-review] ### Highly active question --- - https://meta.stackexchange.com/q/337708/281934 - https://meta.stackexchange.com/q/338583/281934 - [Please consider revising the Protected banner to more closely match the meaning of the words that used to be there.](https://meta.stackexchange.com/a/337053/281934) - [“Highly active question” banner is misleading][1] - https://electronics.meta.stackexchange.com/questions/7090/how-does-the-system-determine-a-highly-active-question-i-think-6-year-old/ --- The "highly active question" banner is still very annoying when reading a Question. I now see it on *most* good Questions I find via Google. It's the most prominent element on the page. **It drowns out both the title and the question body.** Please consider tweaking that message, as suggested in the Meta question above. --- <sup>\*I would argue that the message is *wrong*, too. The question is not "highly active". It is perhaps "highly viewed", or "highly active at some time in the past", but I doubt that the 10 year old programming questions I'm finding via Google are *currently* "highly active".</sup> <sup>This makes the entire banner feel broken. Every time I see it, I do the mental math of *"...this question? ...highly active? why?"*</sup> [1]: https://meta.stackexchange.com/q/339762/287315
