Force HTTPS - goigle - Sep 15, 2016

Suggestion for <in-game/forum/teamspeak etc.> website

In detail, explain your suggestion: force HTTPS

Why should this be implemented?
The tl;dr is security, not just for the website but for users who do not know any better.

Google lists redirecting to HTTPS as a best practice:
https://support.google.com/webmasters/answer/6073543?hl=en

and there's more than enough articles to back it's use up:

https://mashable.com/2011/05/31/https-web-security/#EUyjbB.Rssqf
https://trevellyan.biz/why-your-website-should-use-https-instead-of-http/


(this suggestion is contingent on the current HTTPS bug being fixed, but it is an easy and quick fix)
