Don't know what else to do.

Ah, that's probably down to the Talkforum bot, which automatically refuses to accept blatant goading outside of Pandy. :wink:

If it works in some threads and not others it might be one of the avatars that's hosted on webspace that Chrome deems 'insecure'.

I just got this...
Your clock is ahead

A private connection to http://www.talkforum.co.uk can't be established because your computer's date and time (Saturday, 23 March 2019 at 16:17:06) are incorrect.
NET::ERR_CERT_DATE_INVALID
I've never seen that error before anywhere. I corrected the clock, no luck. Even when making it a few seconds behind it still said it was ahead. I deleted the s from https and that worked, although I had to log in again.

The SSL cert has expired. Your browser freaks out because SSL is how they encrypt useful stuff like passwords and credit cards.

Oddly it happens to me on WiFi but not 4g I’ve seen it before and a quick workaround that works is as per laas reply to get rid of the S in https. I’ve checked around the web and it’s not isolated to here.

Couple things to try, different browser or lower your security settings for talkforum in your current browser.

Why would you EVER need a secure https: for a forum.

As written before, remove the 's' and just use the http://talkforum.co.uk/

All our woes will disappear.

Your ISP tracking is disrupted. With https it is encrypted so although they know you are on here they cannot see what you are posting or reading , which for some of us is probably a good thing.

I'm still unable to post using chrome, - I've had to resort to firefox of late.
