    I repeat, Loose the GDamned Next screen news feeds. What seems like an interesting article turns out to be pure clickbait. I pay good $ for this service so why should I be inundated with NextNextNextNextNextNextNextNextNextNextNextNextNextNextNextNextNextNextNextNextNextNextNextNext?

    Because they want to force you to read the ads. If everything was on one page they couldnt fit as many advertisements. I agree with you - I wouldnt buy any of the stuff thats advertised because it ****** me off.

    I reported this in AOL help under feedback and under report a bug ... With NO REPLIES!!!
    I'm sure you are familiar with the 1 to 60-70 articles when you open Gold,Well Whoever puts these together must think that we are all very stupid!
    First you have to hit next ( A while ago I had to hit nevt 20 times) to read an article that could be put in one paragraph. I know it has to do with cramming advertisements down our throat. I do realize advertisements are important for revenue for aol but Give Us A Break!
    second ... This is very wrong and it really should be stopped immediately >
    I will try to explain..
    When you finally get to the 5th or 6th next, Right before you click on next ,it is programed to jumps up to an ad and you unwillingly click on ithe ad by mistake.

    I would really appreciate if SOMEONE would check out,,, Please read article 33 about scout being stripped of Eagle
    A RESPONSE WOIULD REALLY BE APPRECIATED,AND SENT TO A DEDICATED AOL CUSTOMER!

    If you were watching TV and someone was always "popping up" in front of you, wouldn't you get irritated ? If you were watching a movie and someone kept standing up in front of you, Would you stand for it very long? I would like to read some of your stories, but guess what happens?

    I sometimes wonder if you are making this happen on purpose and don't care if your story is read or not.

    Can't read AOL new articles where we have to go to NEXT PAGE because of ads bouncing around which is very annoying. Why are they jumping all over? Why are so many there? I'm sick of the ads for blouses.

    Lousy service from aol. No one listens. Mine drops off all the time.

  • ROY TOWERY commented  ·   ·  Report

    You are building up CWH (Cold White Hate) with your Welcome click bait and ads. I absolutely hate having to keep going to the next paragraph (page)..and I also Hate the ads
    Sooner or later your company will go out of business if you continue this

    How to improve our Gold experience? Eliminate those damned popup ads that cover three-quarters of the screen horizontally, forcing us to scroll down a line at a time to read a website. The ads covering a quarter of the screen vertically at the right are bad enough, but at least we could see what's on the site and read text comfortably. This new ad approach is absurd. It's time to take your page design away from the ad department and give it to normal human beings -- you know, the kind who like to read what's on their screen.

    AMEN TO THE COMMENT WHY CAN"T WE READ A STORY WITHOUT HAVING TO CLICK NEXT?
    ALSO I CAN"T READ A STORY WITH OUT HAVING AN AD POP UP BLOCKING THE STORY AND YOU CANNOT DELETE THE AD?

  • JohnF commented  ·   ·  Report

    Why don't you stop ******* treating us like idiots with all those ******* advertorials?

  • Anonymous commented  ·   ·  Report

    Very frustrating to try and read news articles.

    just about to get rid of aol

    I am being flooded with ads. Some cover 1/2 a page. PLEASE STOP THEM

  • Anonymous commented  ·   ·  Report

    Your news story are not worth reading. You have to go thru so many pages just to read the articles. Too many ads. Waste of time

  • Anonymous commented  ·   ·  Report

    You cannot read a story because of all the ads and the Next. It is so annoying.

  • Anonymous commented  ·   ·  Report

    Why is it that I pay $26.99 per month for access to AOL, yet I am still bombarded with ads!? Please don't tell me it is due to the add-ons that I can get. The only one useful to me is Lifelock. Norton is a much better antivirus product than McAfee & the rest of the stuff I neither need or want.

    I just tried to read a story you put up on a lost dog an Eagle had taken.It was so full of pop ads I could not read the story. I normally don't do "Click Next" but I wanted to read this story. There were so many ads popping up on each page I was discouraged from reading the rest and left the story. "Nice work"
