    I'm sick and tired of clicking on a headline but having to go through a whole bunch of other stuff BEFORE I get to the subject of the headline. If you must give background information do it afterwards.

    on my IPHONE, I GET DOZENS OF ADS. THEY POP UP EACH TIME I DELETE A MESSAGE. I AM ALWAYS ASKED FOR FEEDBACK BUT I SAY I DON'T LIKE THEM, BUT THEY KEEP COMING. I HAVE BEEN A CUSTOMER FOR ABOUT 50 YEARS PAYING THE FEES EACH MONTH. I AM GETTING SICK OF IT. NOBODY LISTENS

    For what we pay a month for AOL service, I would think we should not have to deal with the extremely annoying ads that cover the context of what we are attempting to read. In addition the page moving just as one is about to hit the "next" button so an ad is hit instead is aggravating as well. I would expect these gimmicks on browsers that are free, but not a premium one as yours. Please discontinue these practices. Thank you.

    It is very clever of AOL to place the articles where the "next" bar is jumping around so you will inadvertently bring up an unwanted ad, stop it!!!!!

    I realize the purpose of the cute little stories on AOL are to sell ads while amusing me, the client. I've gotten used to it, but this weekend a truly vile ad has popped up. It is--unbelieveably--called cleanrear.com and is accompanied by salacious drawings of a person sitting on the toilet or a women reaching under her mini-skirt. If it only appeared one or twice I wouldn't be objecting, but, in one feature I read, it popped up about 50 times. Sometimes I had 3 of their ads appear at the same time. If you're trying to gross me out, you're doing a great job.

    Today, one ad, for a resort hotel, completely covered the page I was reading. I am just going to stop reading all AOL articles.

  • DIANNE CASTELLI commented  ·   ·  Report

    Stop putting the ads over the article content. Put the ads on the side of the articles, not on top of them. It is very annoying to try to read an article. This morning there were six ads covering the story I was trying to read. One ad, completely covered the page I was reading.

    PLEASE STOP THESE AD'S . CAN'T READ ARTICLES BECAUSE OF THE ADS. GIVE US A TOOL THAT CAN QUIT THE ADS WHEN WE LOG ON !!!!!!! REALLY GOOD ITEMS BUT THE AD'S ARE MAKING IT SO FRUSTRATING....... THIS HAS BEEN BROUGHT UP BEFORE....

  • WILL STENGEL commented  ·   ·  Report

    I've noticed that the Delete button / function now has an Advertisement as part of the Dialog Button. Of all the various buttons, I think that the Delete Button is the Worst Place to put an advertisement from the User's Perspective it can cause real problems. There are enough ads already but if you insist on more, create another button called 'ads' and then people can just go there and view all of them !

    Stop pop up ads when reviewing news articles!!!!!!!!! Stop it!!!!

  • PETER TREVINO commented  ·   ·  Report

    Can you please stop the "Next Page" articles, they are impossible to read! I know you want the money from the advertisements on each page, but for us, who pay for your services, it is annoying, it takes longer to read the articles, and, since we don't get to see the end of the article, we don't know how long the article will be. Thank you.

    The Light-In The Box Wig Ad is annoying and distracting. You cannot delete it or stop the objects from moving. Please stop this ad

  • DENNIS BOURN commented  ·   ·  Report

    Don't know why AOL decided to put the articles in little snippets so we have to continually click through a bunch of pages to read the articles. It's very annoying and a turn-off for me. I am thinking of switching to Goggle or some other IP.

  • ROBERT HASTY commented  ·   ·  Report

    stop putting so many adds on a story page....it is distracting gets to where you can not read

    Gmail and Yahoo may have less ads then AOL. And they are free. The reason I pay for mail is so that I don't have ads. Find a less invasive way to display ads. Not in my mailbox. And... Give us 'news' and not the news where I have to scroll through 20 screens to find out if it really is news. I have had AOL for 20 years or more. I would like to see some better options with calendar and other features and functionality like in Outlook.

    PLEASE.......I've all but given up reading articles anymore as it's too difficult to to get past all the pop up ads and having to click continue just to read a small paragraph. What happened to writing just 1 page with the whole article??? In the older versions it was simpler and is it really necessary to have and use so many ads???
