    When you post a story about something post the whole story without having to keep clicking next. I have quit reading all of them because of this nonsense.

  • Anonymous commented  ·   ·  Report

    just tell me the info, I don't want to hit next next next and see nothing but ads that I have no interest in, either get rid of next next next or get rid of the article, I don't read it when I see next

  • SUSIE ELLIS commented  ·   ·  Report

    Please please please stop using the Boredom Therapy type reporting. Having to click "next" is so **** annoying. I don't even use aol for news anymore. I just use aol for emails..thats it. Plus you show such liberal bias...your headlines are anti president...its just too much.

    sadly... AOL is self destructing with annoying advertising

  • Anonymous commented  ·   ·  Report

    Present a whole news story, not just page after page of one or two sentences, then have to click on "Next Page". So annoying, I don't read them any more.

    We're PAYing for AOHell! No Adds! No Commercials! Short to the point articles. We don't have the time. Sorry for journalists that create the articles that never get read.Pages of time consuming adds. We don't want to pay for add removal......they need to pay US!

    I have been an AOL subscriber since the 1970's. When I become interested in a news headline reported by AOL and decide to start reviewing the details, having to go through 10+ pages of "history" with ads being inserted on all of those pages befopre actually getting the substance of the actual news, has simply become too tedious and I almost always "give up" without ever getting to the real reason the headline was reported in the first place. I am tempted to only review news on Google Chrome instead of AOL anymore. I think the ad department is going to ruin AOL for serious users, which is starting to explain why all the other platforms have become so popular. Time to start thinking about why so many people go elsewhere these days.

    I said this before and I will say it again as an over 10 year loyal AOL member it's totally asinine to have to click through 20 pages to read a news article. I realize you have to support your company with advertisements but I want to read an article on one page not 20.I am about to cancel my AOL service and go somewhere else. I'm 70 and I want my news on ONE page-Not 20. Please straighten this out once and for all.

  • Norman Gunther commented  ·   ·  Report

    Every AOL member I talk to hates the idea of having to scroll through 10-20 NEXT screens to get your news feeds. It takes way too much time and most of the info is not relevant.

  • Anonymous commented  ·   ·  Report

    When you list a health claim such as in today's (10/14/2019) browser concerning "don't eat this at Dairy Queen" you should not require users to go through multiple pages to get at the issue. The story started with the history of DQ, which I don't care about. You just want us to have to see countless ads before we get the essential information. Shame on you, I won't do it regardless but especially on a heath or safety concern.

    Please stop making us press the 'Next" button on all the stories on the Welcome page. I have been a faithful user of AOL since it first came out but I can no longer deal with the "next" button. I now look at the headlines and then go to another browser and look them up instead.

  • LENORE CASTALDO commented  ·   ·  Report

    Everyone complains, but AOL does nothing about having to hit Next, Next, Next, Next when reading an article. We KNOW you are using all of these extra pages for your advertisments. WE DON"T LOOK AT THEM ANYWAY! They are annoying . Just out the damned story on ONE PAGE. I may start an article, but rarely finish it.

    SLOW==NEXT PAGE==SLOW==NEXT PAGE==SLOW==NEXT PAGE==SLOW==NEXT PAGE==SLOW==NEXT PAGE=SLOW==NEXT PAGE==GET MY DRIFT???? FIX THIS AOL GOLD(more like tin or other cheap metal)!!!!!!!!

  • MICHAEL GILL commented  ·   ·  Report

    Do you really need to use those video ads everywhere? I know that they are the cat's pajamas, cutesy, and the greatest thing since ice cream bars, but the **** things are really distracting as well as very annoying. I do not, will not watch the **** things at all. I'm just about ready to say good-bye to AOL. I don't find it user friendly any more.

  • David commented  ·   ·  Report

    I stop reading, the story goes on for page after page. Beside being boring and wasting my time it take up additional bet speed. If it wasn't so hard to switch email providers I would cancell my AOL membership, which I have had for 20 + years.
