HTTPS for website?

Currently the SSL certificate used for HTTPS is for "*.kickass.to". We could use a free and signed certificate from startssl that fits to the springrts.com domain name.

Please don't rant about that it will not protect me from the NSA, Anonymous or anyone with sufficient resources and that generally the certification system sux. I know all that. It does however make things less trivial for my neighbor.

Right... it's like "don't bother locking your door, determined thieves will just break in anyways"... every little bit of protection helps drive potential attackers to easier targets.
