Stop all the pop up ads

You sleazy totally incompetent desperate bottom feeders were told to get rid of the annoying Turbo Tax ad on the Welcome Page, why are we still seeing it? Lets show some respect and consideration towards your users and get rid of it NOW! Get the message there you sleazy lowlifes?

Story gets off topic to add more pages. Find a less annoying way to advertise or you will probably loose more subscribers. If you cannot provide great service as in the past, just go ahead and close business and find another way to try and make money.

I also found that frustrating. However I found an answer ! I do not watch any of those stories, I don't open the pages, I close them before they open so I'm not lured in by the tempting headlines, no adds, no frustration !

These ignorant ads you make us see as we try to read a story having to go to 'NEXT PAGE' 'NEXT PAGE' on and on. I have quit attempting to even read this nonsense. How about posting a real story on one page......

J Peterman clothes are UGLY. Get their ads off of my computer screen.

Your boredom therapy, cheat sheet and many other sites are terrible. You can get old just trying to read a story because of the constant "next page" method used. You can show 99% of stories on one page but you take 20 to get there. When you marry that up to desktop gold which has never worked properly you must be crazy to pay for this much grief. Maybe the time has come to stop paying a company who NEVER fixes anything it customers tell them about

Get rid of the friggin tax company ad on top of the page 1 welcome page!
It is annoying & I will never use them for the headache they paid for to advertise on AOL!

Totally annoying & total **** to allow advertising on welcome page!

Ads block out content and make it impossible to navigate to content. I don't look at content anymore as it is too much trouble. Ads pop up randomly and are uncontrolled in timing and the space which they occupy. This formula has killed AOL for me and I'll bet thousands of others who would read your content but for the ads. Goodbye.

I hate paying for ads....especially since I refuse to even glance at them.. I'm so temped to cancel aol

You totally incompetent desperate bottom feeders have been told and told that we don't want the expanding Turbo Tax ads on the Welcome Screen nor having to be annoyed by them over and over on other pages too. Are you stupid lowlifes that desperate to make a buck that you don't give a **** about your users?
It is time that you dumb ***** start showing some respect and consideration towards us users and start listening to us. What is your problem there, can't read or just too stupid?
GET RID OF THE UNWANTED ANNOYING EXPANDING ADS NOW YOU VILLAGE IDIOTS! And while you are it get rid of the jackasses who are responsible for these ads, you don't need useless employees like this. When you hire the stupid you are only going to get stupid results.

Remove all unwanted ads from your opening page. Place all ads on a second page..where anyone who wanted access to ads would have them on another page!!
That way you wouldn't have to annoy members with all this marketing litter each time they sign on.
The clutter you put on the screen is disgusting...wake up!!

I have given up trying to read any of your feature articles. I completely ignore them because the ads are so intrusive and complicated to get through them to read the article. You are not doing anyone any favors. The customers (me) are aggrivated and annoyed, and the people advertising are not getting anything for their money because the customers are not getting to them because of the annoyance. Please find another way to advertise. Give us our money's worth ... we are actually paying to have AOL. I am not using the "free" services like gmail or yahoo. I pay you $23 a month. At least the paying customers should get their information ad free. So there is my suggestion.... those of us who actually pay for AOL should be given a break on the advertising. At least getting through a feature article without an ad. Maybe one at the beginning and one at the end. But having one every paragraph is rediculous.

This is my number 1 most annoying thing. I am even considering just using gmail, google, whatever, and dropping my paid sub to aol. Seriously I pay $20+ to have you inundate me with ads and articles that you have to click, move, etc 15 times to get the story. Seem to me that years ago that was the reason you paid NOT TO GET THE ADS otherwise it was free to use but you got the ads. Its becoming the topic of conversation.

I have to download as many as 30 pages to read an article. Sometimes the article locks up and I can not even finish it. This is unacceptable to me. I am paying for your service and I should not be inundated with so many advertisements. I am sure that is the reason for the numerous pages, so you can maximize the number of advertisements the customer is exposed to. Please do something about this as I do not have time or band width to download all of these pages.

Stop pop ups from recurring in the same article. Once is enough. I can't post the screen shot. 3 adds blocked the entire page. You're kidding, it's a joke, right?

I have been With AOL for over 20 years and will discontinue service if you cannot get rid of having to hit NEXT to read a story and also the NEXT button jumps around so you hit on another ad..Very juvenile tactic. . if you cannot tell me how to eliminate these issues i will drop all service in 30 days and bad mouth AOL like I have heard from then on

Stop with those large ads at the top of the news. This is ridiculous already. Now there are ads on 4 sides of the news - and the top ads are huge causing us the annoyance of closing them and then scrolling down to read the news. Most of us know because it is all over the web that that the only reason for AOL Gold is for AOL to make money from ads.... but enough is enough already. I've been a member since the 90's and am thinking of leaving because of this and because AOL does not address our problems or even reply when we report a problem.

>>An Excellent point (along with ALL the others like it)~ that needs to be repeated a 'million' times, until AOL gets the 'POINT'!!!!!

STOP..... with clicking "Next" to read any articles/stories. It gets so frustrating and irritating, I will close it immediately. Also, I feel I get tagged more by spam if I even attempt to look at a story, so now I don't even go to any. It's no way to run a site and for any of us having to pay for a "Gold" Account. My spam folder is exceedingly full, which I have to manually enter and then the so call spam controls don't even work. Something needs to be fixed or go back to the way you originally had it, not catering to the advertisers and spammers. Your customers should be #1. I do have another provider that I don't use, I could easily jump ship. Sincerely, A Long Time Subscriber.
