Give us back the 9.8 features in Gold
Bring back desktop themes, stationery and emojis for mail, allow us to set up Favorites like we want them, make icons for toolbar available. Most of the time when I'm typing a e-mail, the type doesn't keep up with me and thus missing letters or words. Give us back all the features of 9.8 because Gold is seriously lacking most everything.

Bring back everything from 9.8. Gold needs to bite the dust and disappear, it is that bad. From the time I try to sign on, going thru all the process of signing on, to the email box being terrible, to the favorites in tool bar, the write box is terrible. I pay close to $40.00 per month just to have aol, now it is worthless. There are just way too many things wrong with GOLD, cannot say anything good about it.

Absolutely hate the mailbox Why do we need inbox and new at the top. I just want to see new, as that is my inbox. I do not want mail that I have read to be saved in the new box , If i want to save it as unread, I will do so. then you have to delete each email as you go or it will still be sitting in the new mail. If I want to select it as unread, then leave it where is not, don't move it inbox. You have totally screwed up what we have all loved about aol and the reason, i along with many others have kept aol for so many years. Now I don't even want to sign on to my aol and read my emails. When I do try to read them the box is so small you can hardly read them and the big old AD on the side is flashing and making my eyes hurt. PLEASE give us back our 9.8, After 20 yrs with aol, I am so disgusted with GOLD. Please listen to your subscribers and give us back the AOL that we loved . I could list many other things that are wrong but it would take me 2 days to list all of them. I cannot say anything good about GOLD. And yes, Gold is so much slower than what we had.

Not terribly impressed "looks" improved, but sign on and other issues seem as slow as dial up. Been with AOL & Time Warner (now Spectrum) for 20 years, but this is undeserved ~ bad browser reaction that you have to pay for? Yikes!!! Have I died and gone to AOL ****? lol j/k

add the ability to use form fillers and password generators like ROBOFORM, that could be used in past editions of AOL ( 9.7 and 9.8).and the use of extensions.

The download manager would be really helpful. I go through a lot of emails with attachments, unzipping them one by one is awful. Before files were unzipped as they were downloaded.

In the old AOL you immediately got a reminder when you first opened your email if
you had Mail Waiting to be Sent...not in AOL Gold.When I close an email in the Waiting to be Sent folder, I DO NOT want it automatically sent to the Draft folder. Keep it where I left it.
Also, please do not automatically delete emails from the SPAM folder. I chose to
leave an email in that folder so that I could deal with it at a later time when I was able to deal with it; and when I returned to the SPAM folder, it had been automatically deleted. I'll delete my SPAM!

When I go to check my new mail, I used to be able to use the mouse to point to an email I'm thinking of opening, and the ENTIRE address of the person/organization sending that email would appear BEFORE I clicked to open it. This was a great feature to help identify emails addresses that I didn't readily recognize. Please
bring back this feature. -

In AOL Gold when you're sending an email and go to put in the email address that you want to send the email to, when you put in the first letter you get EVERY email address listed that has that letter any where in it, even if it's the LAST letter of an address. This is ridiculous! This makes entering email addresses much more tedious and time consuming. In the old AOL, when you went to enter an email address, you got only email addresses that STARTED with that letter...not your whole address book! Please go back to showing just email addresses from your address book that START with that first letter.

Completely useless. Bugs galore. You should be paying me to use it.
Was obviously not ready for distribution.
Get rid of it, or you'll be owing me a refund every month. -

Unable to delete browsing history when sign-off. Picture options are terrible. The email window could not be worse if it had been designed by a 2nd grade student. You can't highlight deleted emails w/ the shift key unless you first highlight the top email in the awful window. It goes on and on. Why would you release such a terrible version of your software? You should be ashamed. But what you will be is losing many paying customers.

I want the post card feature back. I used it to send birthday cards and whatever else I needed to send for the proper occasion.
Make the smiile faces bigger so that they are easy to see them. -

My biggest issue is that I typically send multiple attached images by simply highlighting the images and right click my mouse and go to send recepients and it would automatically attached to the email and list the names of the saved images to the body of the email so that the recepeint can see tbe list of what’s in the attachment . Not only that but it compresses the picture automatically so it can get downloaded a lot quicker then big file attachments that you would normally just attach with the attach icon on the email. Gold does not do this and it’s very frustrating. If you do it with gold it does not attach images and sometimes only sometime it will list the names of the pics but with out the attachment . What a waste of time . Where are the technitions to fix this ??? Bring back Aol 9.8

This is such a tiny fix compared to larger magnitude of issues gold has this is such a set back as if Aol is intentionally wanting to lose its customers
