1. AOL hopelessly radical left leaning...

   After being a subscriber for over 25 years, I must say I am utterly disappointed that AOL has become so LIBERAL...it is one thing to lean left, but to provide statistics based on their opinion is not worthy of them. I only wish they would get back to reporting facts and at least, try to stay neutral politically....half the country is conservative, some how they cannot accept that FACT!!

2. I'm aware OF blocking features IT DOES NOT WORK! WHEN DOMAINS NAMES ARE CHANGED

   I am quite aware that you have blocked me features to block an email

   Don't you think I've used that and I'm supposed to go through 4,000 emails and Inter 4000 block messages it doesn't make sense to me at all

   It makes no sense and they keep changing the email name they keep changing the Domain name I said this over and over again you cannot block something if they're constantly changing the domain name and the email name what good is it having that and I get 4,000 spam emails in my box all the time it happens over and over again stop blowing me off and everybody else by telling them to do their little settings no settings are Duck Soup

   You need to have a way to block automatic emails coming to AOL in the only way to do that is to have a numbering system to where the sender has to enter a 3 digit number before it hits the email while I count

   It's simple if someone's emailing someone on AOL they have to get a reply back saying that they have to enter a 3 digit code to complete their email being sent

   And if they don't enter the code number then  their email just doesn't get sent that's just the bottom line there's no keeping it in the spam folder there's no keeping it in the delete photo it's permanently blocked until that person complies with the rules you guys go around and around and around with this in no one gets nowhere and it's very annoying very frustrating when you blow people off by telling them to read a freaking article that does absolutely no good!!!!!!!

   Rather than blowing someone off come up with some ideas that can stop the spam all together again changing it blocking it will that does no good  they simply come up with a new username and a new domain names  and they send the same BS over and over again!!!!!🙄

   Hey,

   ADMIN Sez:

   Wanted to let you all know that you now have the ability to block mail from unwanted senders. Please click the link here to learn more: https://help.aol.com/articles/keep-your-inbox-clean-by-blocking-unwanted-mail-in-aol-desktop-gold

   Everytime I look in the spam folder for my deleted mail there are 1,000 2,000 3,000 emails and all of those are automated email sent out by Bots and it's very annoying very frustrating when I have to Cipher through that BS to find my stuff of something I might have missed something that's important that someone's letting me know and it gets shoved over into that mess and so I'm ciphering through thousands of freaking emails in this so-called spam folder

   The answer is not making a spam folder to get rid of the spam because my stuff gets caught up in all that ****

   What you ought to do is get rid of the automated emails and by doing that you can have them THE SENDER OF THE EMAIL enter a code when emailing someone USING THE AOL EMAIL it can be a 3-digit number you can do it automatic email back saying that you must enter a 3 digit code for THE SENDER Email to be sent through to the AOL user that would take care of it right there

   And I'm surprised that you all had and done that because it's very frustrating and very annoying having to Cipher to hundreds of thousands of emails to find the email that you might need to read

   And I said this over and over again you say block certain words will they come up with other words it just goes back and forth surely you can do better than what you're doing your charging people to use the service you're charging people to use the software

   It with my Google account I nearly don't have as much junk coming through and that's free absolutely free you guys are going to have to do much better than what you're doing is very shameful that you're just taking people's money and yet they have to look at these stupid ADS that they don't want to see and be subject to thousands of BOT MAILS which can be avoided

   You are really need to get your acts together and stop this **** from coming to people's emails everything you seem to think of does not work and it only gets worse you have to do this automated thing to where the sender receives a notice that their mail will not go through unless they enter a three digit code to complete the transaction and that'll solve it right there unless you like all that BS coming to people's emails and that's very annoying very frustrating

   I am quite aware that you have blocked me features to block an email

   Don't you think I've used that and I'm supposed to go through 4,000 emails and Inter 4000 block messages it doesn't make sense to me at all

   It makes no sense and they keep changing the email name they keep changing the Domain name I said this over and over again you cannot block something if they're constantly changing the domain name and the email name what good is it having that and I get 4,000 spam emails in my box all the time it happens over… more

3. Your Suggestions Don't Work...NONE OF THEM.

   Here's what you have suggested:

   "Hey,
   Wanted to let you all know that you now have the ability to block mail from unwanted senders. Please click the link here to learn more: https://help.aol.com/articles/keep-your-inbox-clean-by-blocking-unwanted-mail-in-aol-desktop-gold
   Sincerely,
   AOL Product Support"

   I have been an AOL subscriber for more than 40 years, probably longer than most of you current staffers have been alive. Rest assured that by now, I KNOW how to block spammers. The only trouble is, none of your suggestions works anymore.

   Are you really serious about blocking spam/phishing, or are you only interested in filling every available space on a given page, no matter how small, with some kind of inane advertising? In that regard, I have taken to immediately closing the "Welcome" page on start-up because it's no longer readable due to the flood of ridiculous ads.

   My suggestion to you, AOL, is to get serious about blocking spam/phishing or before long, you won't have any customers left....like me, for instance.

4. Usint AOL gold dwhen needing to print an attachment it takes 4 additional steps to print. using google acess it automatically down loax

   Using AOL gold when needing to print an attachment it takes 4 additional steps to print. Using google access to AOL it automatically down loads and then allows me to print. I dont need to save the attachment.

   Switching from Gold to Google access is another additional step.

   Can you reduce the steps to print an attachment from AOL gold.
   Very cumbersome with Gold. .matepstein@aol.com

5. Unbelievable

   AOL Desktop Gold is a mess. It has been years and almost nothing has been done to fix their problems. It is hard to believe that something that was so good for so long is now a disaster.

12. Here is a suggestion, ANSWER ME!!!

    I seem to have been locked out of making comments. I received no warning as to this and NO comment AS TO HOW LONG IT WILL BE. I have tried MANY times to get an answer about this to no avail!

    I know you will scream about violating community standards, NO! I know the event that brought it on. I had made a comment that was censored for violating COMMUNITY STANDARDS. I SAW NOTHING THAT WOULD VIOLATE ANY COMMUNITY STANDARDS! I was angered and copied the post and reposted it after removing a sentience which was of course blocked. I did this with each sentience with the same result. When I got down to one sentience I started to remove the words one by one. I finally got down to the offensive word! The F bomb, FAITH! FAITH! That word goes against COMMUNITY STANDARDS? The term COMMUNITY STANDARDS is so fuzzing and confusing as to be worthless. NEVER is the violation explained, nor a list of ‘OFFENSIVE WORDS” available. Your policy is like a policeman writing up a ticket AND NEVER TELLING YOU WHY

    I’m sure the censorship people are doing a GREAT job, seeing as NO ONE IS ALLOWED TO COMPLAIN ABOUT THEM!

    Your censorship people are totally out of control. They have also managed to guard themselves behind a fortress of red tape. I have spent hours in chats and telephone calls which direct me to the FEEDBACK screen. I did that repeatedly and am sure you folks don't even READ THAT!
    i have been a customer for DECADES and do not take kindly to being IGNORED! As I said I have been with AOL since the beginning and have watch your service to slowly drop. I have USUALLY managed to get an answer, Until now.
    Now I am angered as to your silence. This is a futile attempt at getting an answer AS I KNOW YOU WILL NOT ONLY NOT ADDRESS THE PROBLEM, YOU WILL NOT EVEN ADMIT A PROBLEM EXISTS!

    I DON'T KNOW WHY I PAY YOU PEOPLE IF I CAN'T USE IT!

    I seem to have been locked out of making comments. I received no warning as to this and NO comment AS TO HOW LONG IT WILL BE. I have tried MANY times to get an answer about this to no avail!

15. Blocked All Emails from a given domain.

    Provide an email option under "Block Senders" to allow blocking of an entire domain. Most junk/phishing emails come from sites that generate temporary email names: @somesite.** would eliminate a lot of junk.

16. Your new price increase!

    i have been a AOL member for over 40 years and have seen many increases over that time period. Much of the service I am getting is not worth what you people are going to charge on your new increases. On top of that I am a senior and the way costs are up, I have to make some changes in the money I spend each month I will be looking for another service provider and do away with AOL! You people have priced me out!

19. FREAKIN BOTS DONT STOP 🙄

    I must have written over a thousand letters concerning spam and BOTS

    And whatever things you guys try to do it just doesn't at work I giving you some bright ideas and happy ideas and you just ignore them and you keep doing the same thing only in the end to get the same complaints and results from people

    AOL has to go to an automated thing where it emails the user back and ask them they are just the three digit code for their mail to continue to go through EarthLink has done it already you guys can do it too

    What is the freaking problem all this stuff that you have does not work this stuff is computer-generated and it just keeps coming through the only way that's going to stop it is for you all to do the automated thing to wear nothing comes through unless the user enters the three digit code in order for them mail to go through you know it's like the image test to prove that they're not a BOT all the money that people are paying you to use this silly service and you guys just sit there and let all this BS comes through it's very annoying and very frustrating

    As you can see from the screenshot all the usernames are the same they keep changing the domain so blocking the domain is Duck Soup it's literally Duck Soup does not do nothing
    It doesn't have an effect on the box they keep using the same username but a different domain these things generate 1,000 domain names per second and you can't beat that nobody can the only way to stop them is to do a generated code telling the user to enter for their email to be process

    You guys are hardheaded pigheaded I don't know what's going on over there but you really need to get your acts together again all you're doing is ******* off all your AOL users by allowing this BS to come through🙄
