Can someone tell me why I have to register (enter my pin) every time i go to Bowsite.com?? Is there a way around the above??

The problem is likely that your computer isn't saving the cookies from this site. Check your settings and allow cookies and you should be fine.

If you on “private browsing” that will do it to you

Probably not vaccinated

That's not registering, that's logging in. Most likely cookie related, your device doesn't "remember" you've already logged in, which is does by saving a cookie from Bowsite.com

Scan your vac card and mask up , then you should be in with no further complications.

Option two send Pat $100 for lifetime membership. >>>>~~~~> *[••]*

That’s strange most political sites allow you to post anonymously.

I checked my settings & I'm set to Allow Cookies. Now what do I do?? PS: I'm vaccinated & always mask-up...

Quit your browser and re-start it. That should 'set' the changes. You'll probably have to log in one more time for Bowsite to install the cookies.

Sounds like you're using private browsing mode. With Safari open, touch the "two superimposed squares" in the lower right corner to enable/disable private browsing.

Use Firefox instead ;-)

Can you post a screenshot from your device with this bowsite page displayed?

It is probably because you are wearing a mask.

Safari works fine. It does not allow to delete cookies on exit and you've said that in Settings -Privacy the box Block all cookies is unchecked. The only other possibility is that you are in a Private Window. Try opening a browser window using Command-N and see if that works.

Phil is correct. I just opened Bowsite in a Private window and have to register again to reply. Opened a regular tab and I’m still logged in.
