I strongly suspect that this is because I get sent to the non-secure HTTP (not HTTPS) server. I'm sure this kind of thing is confusing to non-IT players. While only allowing HTTPS is a good idea on any site that has user input and logins, it is very basic to just set up the web server to forward all HTTP traffic to HTTPS.

I am left wondering what kind of half-baked web server doesn't say "403" Forbidden. Not important.

My original wish and intent was to create a thread with one "Innits how to easily improve the game" suggestion a day. I think I have enough to last a lifetime. Having read this subforums guidelines I reluctantly will not (for now). I would be less reluctant if I thought anyone from BB actually read and listened to these suggestions - if they did we would have had a way to mass send explorers years ago.

This is the third, here's yesterday's post.
