Okay, so what I think is the problem is that thebire.com's SSL is correct but thebore.net's must not be because it's supposed to just direct you to the homepage. (Since I couldn't get the redirect to properly operate.) BUT thebore.net's old one isn't inherently wrong because it's the same exact server.
I think the problem with your bookmark is that it specifies a particular URL which thebore.net ignores now. I imagine there may be a way to "correct" this but for the same reason that I stopped trying to correct the redirect, the tools offered by the host aren't particular enough and my knowledge of what to do at the lower level is nowhere near good enough. I don't seem to have access to thebore.net's stuff anymore because I setup that redirect.
I understand your argument and it does concern me but using Bayesian probability I have to conclude that the number of people who bookmarked a specific URL like you did and wouldn't jump back to the main URL as a check is small. I imagine most people would have bookmarked /forum/ only so it shouldn't trigger the same. I actually have wondered if people getting the now red homepage would be confused.
