Chrome and Edge both turn red and throw up warnings. I know the place is safe but is there an expired certificate or something? Has happened several times before. Am I the only one?

I’m on Safari on a iPad. It says Not Secure on mine. I think it shows that for any site where the address starts with http not https. Something about SSL. I don’t remember the rest of the story.
ah ok. yeah this is an old school page isn't it lol.
You have no idea how many times I've copied a screenshot of "THIS THREAD IS WORTHLESS WITHOUT PICS" when someone has a meltdown on facebook... and no "leaving" emoticon either lol.

This site was set up when the world were not that demanding on using encryption for regular Internet traffic, so we use HTTP rather than HTTPS. Older operating systems and older browsers also don’t bother flagging sites that use HTTP.
These days, the recommended practice is to use HTTPS everywhere, and the newer operating systems and browsers now routinely flag sites that still use HTTP instead of HTTPS. That’s why you start seeing warnings now - we are still using HTTP.
