Thank you for recognizing the advantages of HTTPS, it was designed like that out of the box for now and the future. We also filter non https outside image links and convert them to the https equivalent if one exists. We discourage outside picture linking and provide an unlimited access user gallery for the same reasons.

Anyhow I loved FRF but the main problem boils down to the administrators (Tom) evidently don't care to fix hosting or tech issues.

The security issue over there isn't that "heavy", looks like one of the advertisers in the google ads had a random redirect to a site called filestore72 (if I remember correctly, I was redirected there several times a week). It could be worse, a hacking and random code inserted in one of the templates but not being able to take a look I have to assume innocence.

No worries here at F-R, We own the server and the hosting company and understand security as well as forums since we host mostly forums. Will anything bad ever happen? I can't 100% guarantee it but if anything ever does we will hop right on it and fix it.

So relax, post and enjoy :)
