    So frustrating to start a read on a story and a popup ad covers half the story. I remove it, and window wants to know why. Because I have to navigate through the maze of ads to read what used to interest me, that's why! 9 times out of 10, I just decide it's not worth the hassle and move on. And then there is the human interest story that catches my interest, but I have to go through 10 or more pages of it's history to get to the real headline. Again, it's less frustrating to move on and forget it. AOL used to be so much better. What has happened? Never mind, I know, the all mighty dollar.

    Quit making me click through twenty ads to read an article. If I wasn't using my AOl address for so many things I would drop you.

    HOW TO STOP THE CONSTANT FLICKERING ADS !!!

  • PETER OR SANDRA HOHLFELD commented  ·   ·  Report

    I have been an aol user for a very long time and enjoy most of your articles (stories), but it seems more often these days that the story does not get to the point, instead there are page after page going into many unnecessary details. Then after many pages of unneeded time wasting details the conclusion is reached...which could have been done in a page or 2 and sometimes never even gets to the story's intended conclusion.

    Scrolling down was the way to go. Next doesn't work for me when you drag it out to reveal commercials. It was much better when AOL was free.

    Your topics take too long to get to the point. You have a topic but then it takes several NEXTS to get to the point.

    it is impossible to try and respond to one of your lead-ins for all your advertisments, you present a headline, i want to read what your offering, but your ads block the news, jump all over the page and make it impossible to get to the article. i am tired of it and will no longer respond to any of your headlines headlines

    I am sick and tired of seeing the Monivation guy's face pretty much everywhere on my screen, from Welcome to mail folder shells. I know he's paying you a great deal for that privilege...but as subscribers, we have our rights to less invasion.

    You can ***CAN your ******** policy of allowing ADVERTISING from ANY political party or affiliate posted like a NEWS story. Guess I have to cancel pathetic AOL for their Make a Buck no matter what the content!

    Do not show unwanted disgusting ads on right side. I keep receiving ads with pictures of dead dogs!!!!!! Give us a way to modify ads we receive and especially limit this type of offensive ads.

  • TODD HOUCK commented  ·   ·  Report

    get rid of the NEXT in your stories it is so annoying put it all out there on one or two pages

    I'm not happy with all the pop-up (ads) on ADG. These are too excessive, it's blocking other windows.

    I am sick and tired of seeing Dr. Marty's pictures of what looks like an unhealthy animal on Aol. If he wants to advertise, show a healthy dog and how his products have made them healthy. How about positively not negativity.I have written to him via his web page, to no avail. If he truly cares about healthy animals he will look at it from a healthy perspective.I bet he would sell more being positive!!

    When I click to see a story from the welcome page I don't like that it leads me on a 20 page ad filled search for what the headline promised. Also I think ALL stories should be dated. I don't like wasting time on a 10 year old story, not in this day and age !

    Can you PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE stop--JUST STOP--all the flashing ads that play next to my e-mail. I'm going to get seizures from all the flashing!!! PLEASE JUST STOP IT. I'd hate to give up AOL and move to a new e-mail, but I CANNOT TAKE all those ads that flash (especially the clothing ads) in rapid succession.

    Please stop all your sales, marketing and advertising on my account. If you dont I will quit you after 20 plus years. Its incredibly frustrating and irritating.

  • leonard farrar commented  ·   ·  Report

    Why am i still getting all these ads. I pay good money for your services. I would expect it if i was getting this for free. I get more ads on AOL than i do on google or yahoo.

    Is anyone listening??

  • Luman commented  ·   ·  Report

    If you are paying for AOL, you should have the option of having no ads. The ads slow things down.
