Flashing Ads
Impossible to read a story without ads constantly flashing! Its distracting and very annoying.

AGAIN WITH THE OFFENSIVE ADS. EVERY SCREEN NAME HAS THEM AND I DON'T WANT TO SEE ANY OF THEM. I'M NOT USING THIS NASTY *** SOFTWARE TO BE SOLICITED FOR DONATIONS TO A FOREIGN COUNTRY. END THESE ADS, I'M VERY OFFENDED BY THEM.

Its bad enough that we don't get a choice to cancel out ads but when you start posting ads that are offensive to me what am I supposed to do? I'm getting solicitation ads for donations. I am totally offended by these ads and don't want to see them again... yet there they are. DO NOT SOLICIT ME FOR MONEY!!! I want this **** stopped immediately.

Get rid of the thousands of pop-up ads. So annoying. Maybe I should change to free Google instead of paying for AOL.

I understand that you make money from advertisements but I feel your approach to that I extremely excessive. Advertisement that take up half the page. Taking five or six or more pages for an article that would normally take two or three paragraphs just to expose us to more ads. It's gotten to the point where I don't read the articles because of the excessive advertisements. Getting to be where AOL is no longer worth the subscription price ! I AM NOT a satisified customer,

I open AOl daily about 15 times, they have many articles I would enjoy reading...but surrounded by ads (accidental click one is disaster) and its takes forever scrolling thru to read the whole article plus dodging the landmine of cookies from your advertisers. I know your desperate for revenues, its so obvious...but when are you going to take care of your client base? Or someone will develop a better mousetrap and we will follow

Take the ads out of middle of a screen that says "empty mail" or whatever it says. You think it is an ad from aol especially when it is about a computer issue. I now see tht it is not because something came up that could not have related to aol. Leave the space blank!

Don't put ads on that you can't close and that make you call for help. Its annoying and time consuming

All the ads you have pop up is not of benefit to the advertiser. I just click them off and will not buy the product. and having the pop up in my waiting to be sent mail is just to much. In the long run you will see that this is not good. I have started using my Pop up Blocker.

I am demanding to remove all the paid advertisements inside of my mailbox. I've been with AOL for 16 years + in AOL, if you want to keep me as a customer please do grant my demand for the paid ads.

As of today, 3/16 EXTREMELY annoying adds keep blocking my Inbox content. Commands to stop these ads are ineffective. You'll lose a customer

WAY too many ads that I wont buy from or never had. Put an X in the top of all of them so we can delete them.

I hate the new ads in my email folders when I empty them or finish reading them. If I am forced to pay for sub par aol gold I should not have ads in my stuff especially my email. You have alot of nerve.

Stop all the ads.
stop putting ads on the new email page when there are no new emails. You are doing everything you can to lose your customers. -

This issue is new and I would appreciate having it removed, if not able to do it for everyone, then I would appreciate if you could at least do it for me. I have a long time AOL member and hope you will recognize my concern.

Your site now is TERRIBLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! /There are too many ads even in the email!!!!!!!! ARE YOU THAT STRAPPED FOR MONEY THAT YOU HAVE TO HAVE ALMOST THE ENTIRE MONITOR FULL OF ADS? IF SO, MAYBE YOU SHOULD CLOSE UP SHOP! I WILL NOT BE RENEWING MY MEMBERSHIP IN AOL!!!! THERE ARE MANY PROVIDERS OUT THERE!!!!

The stories connected with "Next" are very cumbersome but to time a bump down just before the next click onto an add is very aggravating. You always have to wait before clicking "Next" otherwise you accidentally click on the ad because the screen moves right to your pointer. Please fix. Thanks.

Ads are now appearing in my Inbox, just as they are everywhere else! When I click on my New Mail, I get a blank page that says, "This folder is empty," and there are ads beneath it.
This is more than just distracting. It is obnoxious. -

I HAVE POSTED THIS ISSUE BEFORE WITH NO RESOLUTION ON AOL'S PART. I SEE OTHERS ARE COMMENTING ON IT AS WELL. MY EMAILS, NOT WEB PAGES, BUT EMAILS WON'T EVEN OPEN UNTIL ALL THE ADS ARE LOADED AND FLASHING TO THEIR HEARTS CONTENT. ITS TAKING MINUTES IN EACH EMAIL TO EVEN VIEW CONTENT BECAUSE THE ADS AREN'T LOADED ADEQUATELY. FOR GODS SAKE FIX THIS ****. ADBLOCKER DOESN'T EFFECT THE ADS, WE HAVE NO CHOICE IN WHAT ADS WE SEE, WE HAVE NO CHOICE IN MAKING THEM STOP, WE ARE JUST STUCK WITH THE **** YOU SHOVE DOWN OUR THROATS IN EVERY BLANK SPACE FILLED WITH ADS. I'M SO TIRED OF GIVING FEEDBACK AND NOT GETTING ANY RESULTS. I'M TRULY READY TO TELL YOU ALL EXACTLY WHERE THIS SOFTWARE CAN GO AND HOW TO PUT IT THERE AND GO TO A FREE SERVER. THIS IS OUTRAGEOUS!
