Adding this to Dashboard > Forums > Settings > Styles > Custom CSS Code solved this by hiding the option from view for users. Thanks!

.wpf-field-wrap > ul > li:nth-child(2) {
   display: none !important;

Is there a way to force them to only use HTTPS here?

Or, perhaps even better: is there a way to ONLY allow uploads and not allow avatars by URL?
