I've been planning to post about the issue Deledrius raises above but have been really busy...
We got our SSL certificate back before StartCom was bought out by WoSign. They were a legit, trustworthy entity when we got ours. Unfortunately, once WoSign bought them out, the combined company started doing some questionable things that makes all of StartCom's certificates look shady. I know Google Chrome on my phone does not like the certificate any more. I don't know about the desktop version of Chrome. Firefox is still happy. I quite frankly don't care if Internet Explorer works. Your mileage may vary. I assure you that no matter how many red flags are thrown up, the GoW website is safe, however.
In the coming weeks, I will devote some time to acquiring a new certificate. Probably next weekend. I will likely be using Let's Encrypt... which has its own issues, but I don't think they will cause browsers to revoke their trust.
