    It's time to stop allowing "guest's" to comment on the comment section's stories. The guest's turn the board into a joke fest.

  2. AOL owned by Verizon forces me to stop using AOL, a member since the 80's. I used AOL to provide safe browsing, now everything I write, incl

    Go back to providing a safe browser that does not intrude upon my privacy. Verizon now wants me to pay for a service that looks at everything, including my emails, all to sell info to others. I don't want a Big Brother, I don't want everything looked at, and I sure won't pay extra for it. And the final insult? Making it impossible to quit AOL. Luckily, an easy fix, had my bank stop authorization. Try it, you will prefer it to having some AOL person demanding to know why you want to quit, then refusing to drop my account.…

  4. Eliminate chatroom bosses

    I believe that Aol should eliminate chatroom moderators / bosses . Strangers should not be allowed to block paying Aol customers posts . Aol should have the final say as related to blocking posts in a chatroom .... Aol should eliminate chatroom moderators because human beings that are given that kind of power will cheat . Chatroom bosses are cheating your Aol customers everyday if they disagree with your customer politically , they will block your aol paying customers posts

  5. Desktop Gold is a joke

    When AOL was free rarely had an issue, then you start charging $5.99 a month and nothing but problems. Usually when you pay for a service it's better, but not in this case, Fix it or make it free again!!!

  6. I see some pay 3.99 mo, 4.99 mo. 25.00 mo. Your prices are all over the map. AOL Oath is a swindle. Can't wait for the class action.

    My attorney sent you a letter three weeks ago. No response. You are about to see a class action suit.

  9. Let us know what is going on!!

    As subscribers and paying for GOLD, I believe we should be notified as to what is being done on your end to correct these problems, inform us of a time line, and keeping us in the loop. There doesn't seem to be a notification problem when you want us to buy a new product so it should be just as easy for you to tell us about the product we already are paying for.

  10. Upper Management Contacts

    Please provide the direct telephone and email addresses for the people at the top that pushed the engineers to put out an operating system(GOLD) before it was ready for prime time. The wrong people are taking the heat.

  11. Omarosa

    The fact that AOL would waste everyone's time with **** about this *-* woman is insulting. The AOL membership and readership has gone down the toilet if this is what you think we are interested in. AOL sucks.

  13. MANY PEOPLE CONSIDER AOL TO BE A VIRUS UNTO ITSELF!

    EVER TRY TO GET AOL OFF YOUR COMPUTER? NEAR IMPOSSIBLE. IT VIRTUALLY TAKES A COMPLETE ERASING AND CLEARING OF YOUR HARD DRIVE AND RELOADING WINDOWS OR MAC PROGRAM, ITS THAT DEEP INTO YOUR SYSTEM. MOST PEOPLE I TALK TO LAUGH ABOUT AOL AND CONSIDER IT JUNK AND THE ABSOLUTE WORST PROGRAM OUT THERE. YET, AOL CHARGES FOR SPAMMING US WITH ADS, POPUPS, CYBER AND BANDWIDTH CLUTTER. AOL IS WIDELY CONSIDERED A JOKE AND A PROGRAM FOR SENIORS. AOL ROUTINELY CRASHES AND LOCKS UP YOUR COMPUTER. IT REALLY IS DREADFUL.

    Thanks for reaching out. Unfortunately, due to privacy concerns we don’t plan on adding a read receipt feature at the moment.

  19. Feedback re: Gold "look"

    Change the "look" from childish and whimsical to neat and professional. The former style met my expectations, The "Gold" version is not eye-friendly at all.
