Regular or Secure Login? (mods if you will)
    #6392472 - 12/20/06 10:36 PM (17 years, 4 months ago)

Just noticed this feature. Is there some reason behind this new feature besides the obvious? Why give a regular option on this type of site and why make an obvious option with the secure login? I feel like if Im missing something here. Please elaborate. Thank You.

The "secure login" feature uses https, which utilises more server resources because of the CPU overhead of encrypting data. I imagine Ythan decided to offer this functionality so that people who needed it (e.g. people on busy local networks anxious to avoid other network users from finding out their user/pass) could use it, but not implementing it as standard because doing so would massively increase the processing requirements of the shroomery servers.
