The need of encrypting the login on the web

It is needed (with some urgency) to add an encryptation to the loging in the loging page. Why? Because if anybody log into the game using a public network could lose his or her account. Why? Because the login should be in a https page, so now the information of user and pass is travelling across the network without encrypting and that means anybody can sniff that information and steal it.

Are You serious? Which are your arguments? Because I am trying to help using explanations which contains many details and arguments (technical information), and do You say only that?. Are You kidding me?. I understand that You are not software developer or web developer or systems administrator. Well, I do.

The login page hasn't changed in over 5 years. The only time people lose accounts is when they give the information out themselves. I highly doubt there is a ring of cyber criminals looking to get your salem pixels.

All that is cool, but imagine the case when a person is usen the same pass for different things, like: Salem, hotmail, Gmail, etc. and then if he/she lost 1 login also is losing other things more importants. It is only an example, but I see You have a great understanding of the concept security, anyway, what matters? Only It would be a little bug in something which you are offering to the public and can ***** her life. Nothing important. And me worried because I thought a good computer technician or a software developer or etc. have to offer always a product free of bugs and overall: safe. That is the minimum. But it is ok, don't fix nothing :). Anyway, to the normal people: better don't connect to the forum page in public or shared networks...

I do want to clarify that I do agree that the page should be in https. As with all things security related there might be a reason it's not implemented. I just checked haven and hearth and it is in the same situation. Loftar more than likely has a good reason why it's not on there or here. Have you checked the client log in?
