Chrome keeps giving me a message that my connection is not secure and I've ended up somewhere other than forum.escapeartists.net. I don't think it's me, because it's not happening on any other sites. It generally clears up after a couple of attempts, but it's happened 5 or 6 times now.

I have also gotten this "not secure" warning occasionally over the last few weeks - usually, I back up and go forward and it's gone, but sometimes it takes two or three tries

I think that this is an artifact of the server move, and that fact that not all ISPs update their server entries right away. It should resolve itself over the next few days, but I'm sure the IT staff are keeping track of the situation.

Lemme just chime in with a "me too" -- sent an e-mail and everything. Thanks for the update.

Thanks for bringing this to our attention folks. We'll look into it.

And thanks, too, for being level-headed about this kind of thing rather than screaming at us to fix it :)

Well, it's a weirdly inconsistent problem. I have it on Chrome on one machine, but not on any other browsers, and not on Chrome with others (um.... I think... I may not have tried it). So it didn't really rise to the level Def-Con 1.

We've applied a setting change we think will help but due to the nature of this problem (very transitory) it's very difficult to test. Could I ask that you keep and eye on your forum browsing and let us know if it's still happening? Thanks folks.
