It is a step back from CCBills top noth security!

Take it as a kind proposal to improve your product if you care.

Would you do online banking without a secure https connection?
I never said you were attacking me Sorry if my reply sounded pissy, it wasn't meant in that way.

I just want everyone to understand that NATS installs run independently and it is up to the program owner whether or not they use an SSL cert on their affiliate join form. Their running of NATS (or other 3rd party systems) has nothing to do with them using or not using a cert.

System like CCBill are not run independently but rather run on CCBill's servers and are hosted and controlled by CCBill. So either no one or everyone on it has a cert for it as it is all centralized.

I hope this clarifies it a bit and please don't confuse any reply of disagreement with taking it as an attack. Sorry if you thought I took it that way.
