I’ve also noticed that a lot of e-mail from conservative groups goes to my “spam” folder. It never used to do this.

My email is with yahoo and so far, conservative emails don’t go to spam. But I wouldn’t be surprised if Yahoo started to do something like that.

if it says "Signup is temporary disabled, please try again later." i don't see how it has anything to do with you in particular

I know, but was thinking if my computer’s IP address were recorded by Townhall, it could ban me from signing up again just the same.

I’m not trying to be tin-foil-hat here, it’s just bizarre.

A lot of places do maintenance type stuff on the weekends. They might be upgrading their hardware or database. Or moving equipment.

This has been for over 2 weeks. And the absence of other regular posters is uncanny.

Ok. Maybe their database has had a problem.

Have you contacted them?

(trying not to get out the tinfoil just yet...although i’m trying to remember where i put it)

Have you contacted them?

The website has always been extremely user UNfriendly and archaic, and there is no way to directly contact them. There is a messaging utility to contact tech suport, but even that doesn't work (doesn't send the message, just remains static.) No phone numbers, e-mail address - nothing.

have you tried contacting the site other than the signup link, is there a general email address?

You can’t contact these people - never have been able to. (Go to Townhall.com yourself and try to find it.) There is a “self-help” feature that asks the nature of your problem, but nothing gets sent to their techs.

Check and see what browser you are using....I belong to a community that was not friendly to Internet Explorer version 10...every time you tried to log on, it would not work. I went to another browser, even an older version of Explorer, and it worked fine.

Sometimes you end up on a “newer” version of a browser that really isn’t better.

so I would try an older or other browser.

Yes, but the message never gets sent. The screen remains static.

One of the worst websites I have ever visited.
