I, too, started having problems with the site several weeks ago. I am not a member of AOS but could at least read and respond to messages. I do not know what happened but I lost my "privileges" and when I tried to regain them all that happened was that I was confined to a loop that would not let me back in. I always wound up in a screen that said I had to contact them.
Oh, well. At least I can read most messages but nothing you have to click on.
