  2. Tenants of Biden's campaign

    Who is writing these things? The article today (8/17) about Biden states "tenants" of Biden's campaign! It should be "tenets." A tenant is a person who rents a living space from another person. Apparently proofreading is a lost art on AOL and, in fact, just about on any publication. Talk about the dumbing down of America!

  4. No "Paste" in Context Menu

    Windows 10 computer. Ver 2004. Copy and paste issue. You can copy from outside AOL. However there is NO "paste" word in the context menu when you try to paste into 'what is on your mind' in a Facebook post. Ctrl V works. But, no...'paste' word!! Let me know. Thanks.

  5. Can I change my display to dark with white type?

    I have a 32 inch monitor because it's easier to read type. But being only 24 inches from the screen it's really bright! Recently, while on Facebook, they popped up a dark screen where everything around the pictures was reversed(!) - dark and all the fonts were in white instead of black! What a difference! So, so easy on the eyes! I kept int for my display and absolutely loved it!

    Does AOL have this option? As a 30 year AOLer, I remember the old days when you could change your display. I used to use a tan and burgundy,…

  7. How is the following not in-line with AOL's standards? Why?

    The very definition of lunacy is to keep doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results.
    The Mayor could only denounce guns.

  8. Background vs Stationery

    You obviously misunderstood, we didn't want your stationery, we want to be able to OUR OWN backgrounds like before. How difficult is that? You don't even understand what your customers want or need, yet you increase the rates? That's almost laughable. You're stealing from us. Why didn't you take notes of AOL 9.8.2 before you cut it off? You don't have a clue as to what we want or need. You're not even trying to satisfy us. Why not?

  9. USE LESS GARBAGE FROM AOL

    YOU PUT IN YOUR ANSWER BOX "GATHERING FEEDBACK" , in other words you are not going to do nothing about a problem that people face on your site except to blank it out so that you don't have to see it again!

  12. I'm appalled at the graphical user interface of this client. The old school clients are bettter. The GUI looks like a 3rd grade VB3 project

    Redesign the GUI. It's terrible. The old AOL clients were much better. This looks like a 3rd grade Visual Basic 3 project. I'm a programmer and I could design and code this in a couple hours. Terrible. But I'll continue to pay for this POS and hopefully you get a better progammer to design the GUI. Also, have the chat worked on and make it better. This is what the old AOL client lived on. Remove some restrictions in the chat you've already coded. This isn't 1943 and Hitler isn't invading us, Get real. Make this a client more similar…

  14. AOL Tech Fortress

    I down loaded AOL Tech Fortress to protect my Windows 7 desktop. It stopped "Windows Explorer" from oprating and sumarily cost me $300.00 to get it fixed. You had better take this program off the market before it does more damage. I called support and they could not help me so I went to a local professional.

  19. It would be great if we could submit comments on Daily Stuff, like the recent one about what baby-boomer foods millennials will not eat.

    Allow us to reply and comment on articles in Daily Stuff. I would have loved to make a comment on the one about creamed corn. The article said it's corn with cream but there is absolutely no cream or any dairy product in a can of creamed corn. It's called "creamed" because it looks like there's cream in it but it's just a can of corn in which much of the corn is overcooked and mashed so that it looks a bit ******.

  20. I have two suggestions, first suggestion is to provide a grammar check as you provided the spell check.

    First suggestion is to provide a grammar check as you did with the spell check to help prevent writing errors. Secondly, to allow the customer service to take the information from the customer, and to pass it along to whoever they may transfer you to if they cannot provide assistance. Having the customer repeat all the data all over again is stressful when it can be relayed to whoever they are transferring you to, and to save time for the tech as well.
