  1. I'm tired of AOL consistently deleting something that I post as it does not break any AOL rules.

    AOL consistently deletes the following paragraph when I post it even though it does not break any AOL rules about posting and is an appropriate reply to those people who insult liberals:

    Liberals are so terrible that they inflicted the following on this country: Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid, Civil Rights Act, freedom of speech, freedom of the press, freedom of assembly, the Declaration of Independence, maternity leave, child care leave, prison reform, antislavery laws, women’s reproductive rights, food stamps, poll tax elimination, religious freedom (freedom from oppressive religions and freedom to worship as one pleases or not at all), right…

  2. Adding feedback brings you back to the beginning instead of the last page you were on. Time consuming!

    If you view feedback and vote or add a comment it scrolls back to the beginning of feedback. TIME CONSUMING AND ANNOYING.

    Bring back v 98.2

  7. Have any of you at AOL even tried reading an article?? Impossible to do, with all the ads covering the content of the article.

    Have any of you at AOL even tried reading an article?? Impossible to do, with all the ads covering the content of the article. There are only small bits of written material between the ads -- just a couple of lines between the ads.

  16. SOLUTION to try if your AOL DESKTOP GOLD won't load
