If it doesn't fit anywhere else, it belongs here. Also, come here if you just need to get hammered.

Remove Webpage Security Certificates

Since last weekend my browsers have been complaining that the security certificate for crawl.develz.org has expired, and it adds a tedious amount of clicking to browsing the forum. I propose that we remove security certificates from webpages. Identity theft is not dangerous enough to warrant the interface screw.
Won (52). Remaining (15): 5 species: Ba, Fe, Mu, Na, Op; 5 Backgrounds: AM, Wr, Su, AE, Ar; 5 gods: Jiyv, newNem, WJC, newSif, newFedh

It has made me migrate to Tapatalk. Although it was pretty tedious browsing the forum on the phone even without the security warnings...

Re: Remove Webpage Security Certificates

I don't think this is a good idea. Being able to browse the tavern too quickly will result in players coming across far more bad_tavern type posts, and propagate false advice. And remember the one best piece of advice ever given: Take it easy. Cheibriados wouldn't want you to browse the forum too quickly - remember that is more about the journey than the destination, stop and smell the roses, and occasionally kill things with bad posture.

Is that another Chei joke? Only kill things while slouching?

Webpages are a band-aid for lack of good communal species communication. Suggestion: remove internet, focus development on mental telepathy.

Re: Remove Webpage Security Certificates

if anyone's interested in an actual work around for this, just set your clock back about a week or two, to before it expired, and everything's fine. As long as you don't need your system date to be correct, or anything...

Re: Remove Webpage Security Certificates

now it feels weird to not have to go through the warning screens. I just got used to opening a bunch of threads, going through the warning on one and then quickly f5ing the others

Passwords are a not particularly interesting Tolkien reference.
