  4. Welcome, You've Got Mail, Goodbye voiced by Sonic the Hedgehog

    I love all the sound options you have for Welcome, You've Got Mail & Goodbye. However, could you make the 3 sound effects voiced by Ben Schwartz, Jaleel White, Tahj Mowry, Jason Griffith, Roger Craig Smith, and/or Christian Heywood. I figured since Sonic The Hedgehog has been very popular this decade with the movies, the Netflix series and Sonic Saturdays on Nickelodeon I thought it would be cool if one of the voice actors who played Sonic the Hedgehog could say "Welcome", "You've Got Mail" and "Goodbye" AOL effects.

    1. Ben Schwartz (voiced Sonic in Sonic Movie #1, #2 and #3).

  5. Ads, Ads, and More Ads

    "AOL says: Gathering Feedback · AOL Desktop Gold Support (Admin, AOL) responded
    We are making tweaks to try and reduce some of the negative impacts of the new Ads"

    How about getting rid of ALL the ads, especially for your long-time paying customers, who should never be subjected to this blatant abuse?

  6. What am I paying a monthly fee for when I get over 100 spam mails a day with no way to block them?

    Posting for this same subject has been going on since at least 2019. Even if we could block them (AOL makes certain we cannot) it would show AOL cared about customers. I pay a monthly fee so am a customer. If you right click to block AOL tells you to wait five minutes. That is a joke, try it. If you click spam to send it there then you have about 200 a day to delete or keep and add another 100 or so every day. Time to get qualified technical support or give the ones you have permission to…

  7. STOP THE COUNTLESS ADS covering every page.

    Have any of you geniuses at AOL even tried reading an article?? With all the ads covering the content of the article there are only small bits of written material between the ads -- making it so hard to read, it is not worth clicking on any article.

  10. Misleading advertising.

    I have been a paying customer of AOL for decades. Since AOL has been placing ads for a multitude of companies and squeezing them in on every tiny little space, we are seeing many many misleading ads. Not only are they misleading but just straight out LIES. AOL need to vet these ads more closely and not allow them at all. It is ridiculous how AOL is allowing such advertising.
    AOL NEEDS TO STOP IT NOW.

  11. BLOCK "UNKNOWN SENDER@UNKNOWN DOMAIN"

    Somehow this is unable to be blocked. And if you report it as spam, it goes to your inbox.

  13. I see you've made the ads side bar larger with no way to make it smaller, only to reduce the size of my email space. This is unconscionable.

    I see you've made the ads side bar larger with no way to make it smaller, only to reduce the size of my email space. This is unconscionable.? Soon it will just be big ads and a little space to read our emails. Plus we can't eliminate these ads. Any ideas how to keep this decades long time client?

  20. Full-Screen Facebook Ad on Log-Off

    I see that within the last week, you have placed a full-screen Facebook ad on AOL every time I log off. You can never have too many ads, right, AOL?

    What is wrong with you people?
