  4. Moderation is against the U.S. Constitution and is Marxist

    Please explain to me what is wrong with responding to someone saying that Hamas is going to Heaven, by replying "To meet their mail virgins for the men", or "To meet men who haven't had sex for the men". Both of these are rejected and do not harm anyone in the community or the readers. This is becoming unamerican and, even though you are private company, you cannot violate the rights of citizens to speak when it's not harmful. I feel a class action lawsuit coming.

  6. news bad idea in search box

    I have no interest in you adding news to the search box. Please remove it. I was on the phone for an hour with 2 support techs who tried to remove this unwanted news. It is very uncalled for to try and make some one read **** they are not interested in

  10. emoji

    The new display of the Emojis is just terrible!. When added to a letter, they don't show up clearly or in Color as before. You are going to have a lot of complaints about this new type of display for these items. Is there any way I can recover the old system I've had so that I can continue to use these in my articles. Please respond to this complaint!!

  12. lmprovements needed in steps to clear out old messages

    1) I have too many saved messages in my Old and Sent Folders.
    2) The first improvement is to give AOL customers the option to sort by To/From and within that grouping by DATE
    3) The second improvement is to allow AOL customers to go back to where they were in the list of messages under review-NOT THE TOP of the List.

    What will it take for AOL to make these improvements?

  13. Allow us to delete "views" folders

    FRUSTRATING! The "views" folder group is useless to me, and it defaults to being open - taking up space right (6 lines) at the top of the folders list. Please allow us to DELETE this feature!

  16. a way to enlarge aol emojis on microsoft keyboard

    Select and position emoji. Highlight it. Press ctrl key, shift key and + key.
    Everything may enlarge with emoji, but just highlight text (sans emoji) and reduce it using the Aa button under the "subject" line.

  17. AOL Desktop Gold

    I appreciate so much Kevin's help tonight. He is the best technician that I have had from AOL in forever!!
    I do not like the added feature of (Views) in the new AOL. It is a real nuisance to me! Please consider deleting it from my account.

  18. Why Does an E-Mail Open When All I Want to Do Is Highlight It?

    I had no trouble highlighting an e-mail title in my mailbox before the last month or two. Suddenly, now, as soon as I single-click on one, doing so not only opens the e-mail, it also opens to a full page. This is exceedingly annoying to say the least. What's going on, AOL?

  19. I must be able to edit my birthdate since you system has the wrong birthdate.

    My birthdate is wrong in your system. There has to be a way to edit my birthdate otherwise you are telling the state, hospital, FBI, Social Security, US Navy, US Army and VA are all a bunch of liars which you would be including my parents and the newspaper that reported my birthdate. Do not tell me you can not change it as I have been to computer programming school and I was taught that all information is not "set in concrete".
