Use a unique password for DVXUser

Wish I were banned.
Friendly reminder to use a unique password for this website (and all websites, but especially this one). The site is using HTTP instead of HTTPS, which means data sent and received here is not encrypted. It is fairly easy for a hacker to grab your login credentials.

Another solution is to use a Firefox add-on called HTTPS Everywhere, that forces all connections to use HTTPS.
 
Instead of using a unique password it is even better to generate a random password in combination with a password program using two-factor authentication.

By the way, it is 2020, there are absolutely zero reasons for a forum not to use https!
