Bogus?
It's just not certified with a CA, the forum is still perfectly secure (I hope), I only allow secure connections to the server except for bittorrent, and soulseek. I have came to know various employees at Internet Service Providers in Australia, specifically Melbourne that sniff traffic for plain fun.
The forum has some various other reasons that many will not understand unless they hang about for some time. These are the "other reasons" that the forum is on a AES 256 SSL connection. I plan on starting a secure mail system as well in future with usermin that will allow it to be used by users with a Unix account for secure communications.
Moveing from there, I will eventually migrate the entire /var and /home filesystems to a AES 256 (or 512) bit Linux Cryptoloop filesystem. This will ensure that even more privacy of data. Privacy is becomeing important with the status of the Australian Government and I do not like where civil liberties could be heading in this country.
I hope that answers your question.
