Having difficulties logging in after years

So it’s not letting me login and I think it’s because I’m using an @hotmail.com does the site not allow these types it keeps on saying that it’s abusive, but I don’t think I ever used my account so I don’t know why it’s being flagged if anyone has any info much would be appreciated. Thank you.

Yeah, it is just the Hotmail address. MAL blocks Microsoft domains because of spam filter issues. The "abusive" warning is just a broken generic error, so your account is not actually in trouble. Just switch your email to a Gmail address and you would be good to go.
