The quick summary is that HTTPS protects more than just e-commerce.
It means it would be harder for someone's account to be hacked, and if people wanted to pass on PayPal OT Interac payments through PM's they would be secure while doing so.
It means that a malicious ad provider could not inject their ads instead of the ones the forum sponsors pay for.
