The barrier to entry at PerlMonks has risen too high for me to continue to spend time clicking to indicate I'm willing to ignore the security risks. I can live with the passwords being stored in clear text, and with all the other warts, but I am done with the certificate issue. Even with monk pictures turned off, as has been recommended in another thread as a user-initiated solution to the server's shortcoming, I get the message.

And... I get the message.

I had hoped that this would get fixed by now. But nothing has changed in some time. So the message to me is that making the site usable so that people can continue to use it to contribute to the Perl community is not deemed a worthwhile effort. So my message is that I have understood this, and won't be contributing here going forward until the certificates are fixed.
