/\ well maybe I'm on the outside, but to me it has seemed near flawless.
There will be negative people, and any site is subject to goof-off who have nothing better to do than disrupt a website for nothing more than the challenge of it.

I think now a days, most browsers have resorted to posting that message if the website has a log in form.
They (and Google) want evry site to be https (notice the 's').
I think PY went to that for awhile, but if the certificate isn't kept up to date, that message will be very annoying.

Looks like PY isn't using that https, so it's probably the phone's browser doing the complaining. Should be able to add the site to the 'white list' or whatever it's called in the settings?
(making it an OK site to visit)

If this was your banking site or in the catalog section ordering parts, then maybe it would need a secure setting.

Agree but this topic was about forum staff.

And btw, we had Stacey come back but travel really got to her. Unfortunately for us she found something close to where she lives.

Steve also left on his own power. Steve was super laid back Silicon Valley come and go when you want kind of guy. We were fine with that for years but then as we grew, we needed more structure and his position kind of took on a lot more responsibility and therefore some stress. It started not to be very enjoyable for him.

So anyway.......thank you and Eric for addressing this matter, of the pop ups. I was only trying to help. Sorry for taking it off topic.

You have to actually click on the 'not secure' script in the browser space to get that message.

Maybe post-crash, and resurrection, or maybe pre-crash... I cannot be sure.

Also, I run (becasue I am a stick in the mud) the "PY online 2015" theme, and feel it's worth mentioning because vendors might get mad, that the adverts in the bar along the right side of the screen has been MIA since the site came back online.
No security warnings getting up this side of the pond. Not on my home or work computer.

But hey, don't alert the Admin to the fact the ads don't appear on the 2015 theme. We don't want it turned off.

I LOVE the older 2015 theme. Don't like the updated one at all

I understand, but all jokes aside, I also understand how ads bring in revenue to pay for hosting fees ect - so my alert is two fold;
1) I want to see this site stick around
2) if I was a vendor paying for advertising, I'd want to know what I'm paying for is actually working.

I am "in charge" of a website, we have endures several bad attacks, and a couple attacks ago our IT guy left... so we're screwed, and I never put in place any revenue making part of the site, so I am footing the bill to keep the site up...
A part of me wants to keep it up, another part of me (especially when the exchange rate is bad for me) want to just pull the band-aid off, and kill it.
I have tired a couple times to look for help, but I dont' think i even know where to start looking for help.

About Us

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
