None of the login pages on this site are encrypted. Perhaps, the lack of any security might be just one of the many reasons why this forum is dead. |

The whole site needs a lot of improvements and important things that should be fixed. The lack of security makes the site more vulnerable to the spammers. I trash spam posts and ban accounts multiple times a week. |

Fortunately the forum is so small and the traffic is low so it's a piece of cake find the post and trash it. If Tony gives me Admin rights I can do more. But as you see many things need improvement.. If you visit the Chinese XWidget forum you will see another world.. |

And if tony is okay with the community maintaining the community website, I am ready to provide the services. Over these two years, I have become a become an experienced cloud operations engineer, and also have a personal fleet of servers, one of which I can put to XWidget use. ( I no longer use Windows much, thus no more widget developments, but has been using JS almost every day  )

Don't underestimate the amount of usage the server gets as I expect it would be considerable. First we have to pry the various elements from Tony's grasp!

Not so worried about the site's looks (personally I despise the more bland tablet-suited sites these days) but I do know the site needs updates, and more dynamic content. PS. Changed the thread title. |
