High performance, consistent uptime and fast support. Minecraft hosting that just works.
But don't you think it should be enabled again. I think that green lock makes me feal safe and secured.[DOUBLEPOST=1466969332][/DOUBLEPOST]I remember when my teacher told me if there is no SSL don't sign up.

SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) is the standard security technology for establishing an encrypted link between a web server and a browser. This link ensures that all data passed between the web server and browsers remain private and integral.

It's basicly impossible for MCM to use SSL
Not really

To much mixed HTTP content and resources. SSL = R.I.P all external images.[DOUBLEPOST=1466969587][/DOUBLEPOST]
It deals with infomation like passwords, and sales are done over MCM. Without SSL it is far easier for someone to gain access to your account and use it to scam. So i would say its important.
Well do what i did: https://i.dylan110301.com/u/img/1901796269.png SSL GYZIO :3[DOUBLEPOST=1466969707][/DOUBLEPOST]

CloudFlare only covers half the connection
Please refrain from posting threads like this, when you don't know what SSL actually does. lol
For images: If only XenForo had some sort of ability to proxy image requests, eh?
but but DDoS, the image proxy leaks my backend IP zomgwtf?!?!
Well .. don't request the images from the same box that the webserver is running on? Provision a separate box that does nothing other than request images and then the impact is minimal if it does get taken done by some script kiddie.
omg bandwidth?!
Don't you owe it to your visitors (some of whom are paying), to protect their passwords and other personal information - even if it's at the cost of a little bandwidth?

Other resources should have no problem being served via TLS. CDNJS will support TLS with no problems, for instance.
In my professional opinion, it's negligent for management to not provide and enforce TLS on the site and I can see no convincing technical arguments that would suggest it isn't viable.
