https:

Hey TR, why instead of using https:, do you choose to make us send our usernames and passwords in clear text? Or is it just not much of a big deal for a forum site?
At least everybody uses different passwords for different sites, right? Just doing some research on the subject and noting who allows and who doesnt, and things like that. any opinions, does it even matter with ssl security questionable?

It would be preferable if it weren't so.
But, At least everybody uses different passwords for different sites, right? Guess wherein the fault lies there?

I mean, that makes for a poor argument. instead of using https:, do you choose to make us send our usernames and passwords in clear text? was better on its own.
