When saved Password is not accepted, why doesn't it save the TYPED in one?
Several times, upon going to a Facebook URL, I get INCORRECT PASSWORD. I've TYPED in the new one, but AOL GOLD does not ask if I want to replace the old.
When I went to settings>Browser>password .. There was no Facebook password saved?
No matter how it was lost, why wasn't a "Want to Save PW asked?"119th ranked -
Apparently a new update forces a "print preview" for printing an email before you can go to the print box. This is tedious - let us disable!
Allow print preview to be disabled for printing emails.

signature
AOL Desk top Gold should add more options for different Font signatures. AOL Desk top Gold only list a hand full of fonts to select. The Legacy AOL had a hundred fonts to choose from for your signature.

Returning Comments on Bug reported issues.
When contacting AOL techs by phone on problems, they tell us to use the “Bug” link to do so. This can be hopefully helpful since so many of the AOL phone contacts are unproductive and inconsistent from one tech to another. On average, most of the phone-in tech calls’ answers to tech issues are to reinstall AOL Gold, where that often is not the solution. Their tech resolving expertise is usually very shallow. They spend more time trying to sell me a protection package than trying to find an experience supervisor to answer difficult…

Two factor verificaiton
Two factor verification is becoming a real pain!!! I have to do it several times per week every time Windows or AOL updates. It is wasting my time!!! Nice to prevent hacking, but not at the expense of using the software.

If there are posts about political biases in AOL, why are they "reviewed" with the Vote button turned off?
If there are posts in this forum about political biases in AOL, why are they "reviewed" with the Vote button turned off. There may be others who feel the same way about the subject but they are not allowed to "raise their hand" along with everyone else.

Quit trying to get my cell phone number. That is one of the least secure forms of identity for me. Everybody seems to have that number.
Quit trying to get my cell phone number. That is one of the least secure forms of identity. BTW, your content is soooooooooo biased it has zero integrity at this point. Just completely worthless.

"BLOCK EMAIL" made simple + easy!
PLEASE, include a "BLOCK EMAIL" option in the drop down window when an email is clicked on. Having to type in the address(es) in the current block email system is VERY tedious and they change their addresses hourly. I AM SICK-AND-TIRED of all these, "I want to have * w/ you." emails, etc. **! Make it easy!

NEW AD SPACE
I see that AOL has no managed to find 1/4 of an inch of space to post yet another ad. What the absolute ****? This ad is right on top of the mailbox where it lists your emails. As if there aren't enough flash ads that eat up memory and resources. Get real AOL and remove that ad along with every other friggin ad you deluge us with.

AOL Desktop Gold
Hi team,
AOL desktop gold is currently acting so slow when signing in and loading emails in the mailbox. For instance, it takes 3-5 minutes just to load the emails or to sign in.
Hope this will bring to your attention. Thank you and Godless!

Bring back the old spam settings
Bring back the old spam settings, AOL Gold is awful, there is so much spam and no way to stop it. What the heck are we paying for anyway. You want all of our money, and for what? You aren't improving anything, only taking things away.
