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.

I'm paying THREE TIMES that amount ($17.95/month!) for a product that wouldn't have made it past beta testing a few years ago! This brand new version, Revision 11.0.1550, is as slow to load as the last one, and just as cumbersome to open/navigate through emails. Building AOL Gold "from the ground up," was a waste of time and resources. You threw out the baby with the bathwater and now you're using PAYING members as your beta testers!

Please fix it - is there anything good about the way it works now - never had a problem before - what was wrong with the way 9.8 functioned - this is supposed to be a improvement? Can't find anything good to comment about!

I have tried to do what you suggested regarding footprints, etc. All of your suggestions are ********. Why are there no responses to those asking for 9.8 to come back until you fix this obviously inferior product?

TO SATISFY THE ONES THAT DO & DO NOT LIKE AOL DESKTOP GOLD, THEN WHY DO YOU NOT OFFER AOL DESKTOP 9.8.2 AS AN OPTION.

Paying customers should not be the guinea pigs for your beta version of AOL Gold.

Gold is the worst program you have ever designed.....it's not improved! Whats with all the black flashes??? You got rid of all the good features of 9.8.2 in exchange for running ads in EVERYTHING! Sometimes you can read an article the ads have taken over...I could list all the BAD things but it would take all day! Gold really is bad not an improvement

GO BACK TO 9.8.2 IT WAS GREAT. Well worth the monthly charge of GOLD.
This is the best advise for AOL that can possibly exist in this world AND ON THIS PLANET.
9.8.2 WAS GOLD. THE AOL DESKTOP IS FOOL'S GOLD AND NOT WORTH A DIME PER YEAR.
