This is not a banking site,there is NO sensitive data here.... Why the need to force HTTPS for no bloody reason?? (Just causes connection problems on some browsers)

Sites that use HTTPS for no reason only benefit those who wanna track people....(Google,etc)

Having HTTPS is ok but forcing it IS NOT NEEDED ON A SITE LIKE THIS

If someone wants to come here HTTP the site should stay in an HTTP session.....


cellar.org does this (Also VBB) if someone goes to https://www.cellar.org the site STAYS HTTPS but if they goto www.cellar.org it stays http....

Heres a good thread about things like this

What kind of modern browser can't handle HTTPS domains? I don't know much about this kind of thing, but that seems illogical to me.

They are trying to give ppl a FALSE SENSE OF SECURITY saying HTTPS is secure when the elite can still see everything.... IT JUST GIVES THEM MORE CONTROL!!!!

Yes. You're being tracked. Welcome to the internet.

Yeah, pretty sure the admin broke the site when they updated to HTTPS. What a dipshit.
