need the moderators to comment but going to HTTPS does mean there is a bit of added overhead which might have made the perceived performance of rcu an issue.

I brought this up a couple months ago. RCU is slowly going under. They are giving away Premium Membership and trying to get guys to advertise on their poor excuse of a market place after having such a good one for over ten years. RCU is still getting all kinds of advertising that you see on the home page. How many guys read all of those articles and advertisements? This site is a good site for the Russian hacking invasions!! LOL>>> There are even Russians on this site. Probably why our computers get viruses too.

Oh no, not Russian again? Geez, give it a rest. The Russians aren't the enemy they used to be. The real hackers are the little American teenage turds who don't give a damn about other people.

This is nothing to do with RCU and all to do with Google Chrome.

Just ignore it for normal forum browsing.

If it bothers you mr google will find you ways of removing it from the URL line.

Thanks John, I use Chrome... Not a big deal to me, really just for looking and talking, not to sure about the Market concerns though...

....but it does mean we are browsing RCU over an un-encrypted link, right?.. whereas, for example, rcgroups.com is fully encrypted. So is flyinggiants.com. They both run an HTTPS server.

I was wondering why I’m now a “premium member” - so what does that even mean?

Huh? Google doesn’t decide whether or not you purchase an SSL cert for your website.
