Why does this site not support HTTPS?
A lot of accounts are vulnerable here, If this site gets hacked, a lot of passwords will be compromised!

The forums are running on an old version as well. If someone is stupid enough to reuse their password here for something important, they kind of deserve to be breached.

1. Site is again only https.... edit: the cert went invalid for some reason... fixed up.
2. https has nothing to do with hacking of a site it has to do with secure transport of data from your browser to the server. If a site doesn't have HTTPs it doesn't mean any site could be compromised, it just means data could be "viewed" in transport - like passwords.... but you don't have to worry we only have https.
3. Don't reuse passwords ever, use a password manager like 1password

Basically assume any web forum can be and already has been breached due to the number of vulnerable points in old web code.
