I’m the same as you. Townhall did the same thing to me. In some cases it would say “account banned” other cases bad email/password. I’m beginning to write them off as has-beens and used-to-be a good forum.
I also block all their clock/RAM wasting ads that slow page loads. If you learn anything let me know.
Glad to hear I’m not the only one who was banned. I’ve noticed that many very good previous posters are no longer on that site, whether voluntarily or involuntarily. A few of the very good columnists are the only thing having me check back on occasion: Thomas Sowell, Walter Williams, Matt Barber, etc.
Otherwise, it’s becoming a herd of RINO’s.
